My two favorite Web 2.0 sites are Teacher Tube and Delicious. Teacher tube is full of useful videos that allow my students to see different ways of teaching the same content. One student may understand it better with my working the problems, but another may need to see and hear it a different way. I do this to make sure all my students, no matter what their learning style is, understand Algebra. There is also songs on there that deal with students life. I found a really good rap "Pull Your Pants Up" that my students loved listening to and possibly walked out of class with their pants pulled up.
My second site I use and like is Delicious. I like to bookmark sites to use in my class and then be able to go to Delicious and pull them up. I never have to search for sites as I know they are saved in this one area and there is no wasted time hunting for sites.
Chasity I said the same thing about delicious...I have never even seen or heard of it until I took this class and what a life saver! I hate when I find a site and then don't remember it the next year or the next DAY for that matter LOL...and teacher tube was another that I ran across during this class never even hear of it, but I love you tube for class too.
