Playing in the "Sandbox"

It's fun to look at everyone's "Favorites," especially to get ideas for places to visit, books to read, etc. I can see myself using this feature at the beginning of a new school year to get to know my students better. I could set up a sandbox similar to this one on which students post their favorite sports, hobbies, music, subjects, restaurants, etc. It's a great way to incorporate technology while learning about my students.

My uncle set up a wiki for his students and a few of the other teachers when he was in the school system in his area. It seems like it worked really well, especially for the group projects.
