Mod 5 Resource

This week I found a website that is very helpful when looking at many things related to Learning communities. The website is:
http://www.ascd.org/
The first thing that stood out on this video was a video of a Learning community at work. This video was somewhat basic, but really stood out because it showed how a learning community can really help one teacher improve at something or find ways to do something that she couldn't do on her own. The link to this video is:

And while this video doesn't really deal with the online side of learning communities, this website as a whole doesn't skip over this aspect. It has many articles that can be found on technology specific parts of learning communities. One article that I looked at dealt strictly with using blogs and wikis within your learning community.
