                                 Wikipedia is something that I never used with my students. I can't say that tonight's conversation 100% changed my opinion on wanting to use that information source but it definetly got me thinking about it. I had no idea that Wiki was even somewhat being controlled. This makes me more willing to use it. I don't think I would use it for my students still becuase I like to know that all the information I am giving them is clear and perfect, I think I would possibly use it for myself. I have the judgement to read something and compare it to other sources or know there is no way that information would be factual. My third grades would not have that knowledge and I would never want them to get confused or get wrong information. I do however like the idea of many minds coming together to create a source of information for others but I'm just not sure I like the idea of it just being ANYONE on the web.

I use many different APPS that are on the handout we got in class. Classdojo is awesome and so is the common core standard app which I am constantly on. It's really straight forward and easy to navigate. I am not a big tech person so anything that is simple and 1, 2, 3.... is good for me.
