Ning!!!!

I LOVE the idea of Ning. When I heard about this I realized this is something I will definitely use in my Classroom. Students will be so familiar with social networking sites, especially Facebook, and this works essentially in the same way. It will be nice to use the idea of a social networking site, but in a more academic way. I feel that it will really motivate students to want to communicate with each other and feel like they can communicate with me as a teacher easier. I think kids will also think it's more fun to do their homework.
