Thing 19

I explored Craftster and I really enjoyed it. I am the type who will do anything that has to do with "crafting." If I can put crafting in education or my everyday life, then I go for it! I think that have a social network for crafts is a great way for people to spread their wealth of ideas with the rest of the world, and  it is a great way for teachers to get in with other people around the world to better their classroom environment. One thing I like is you can search different crafts and look through lists of different things that can give you ideas to spark that "ah ha" moment. When you post your craft on the site, you can leave a description, link, and others can comment on it. It is great for any crafter who would love to explore something new. This website reminds me a lot of Pinterest that I am recently a new member of. If you like Craftster, then you will love Pinterest. I am also a member of Facebook and Twitter. I use my Facebook "religiously." Mostly everyone I know has this social networking membership, so I find it very useful. I am also a new member of the TeacherPop Ning. It is a site for APSU students to collaborate through social networking about education. This is a great way for future teachers and teachers at APSU to get together and share things about education and the school. A link to join Teacherpop is at the right of my blog page or in an above hyperlink. If you are an education student at Austin Peay State University JOIN NOW!
