Talk:User-Generated Content in Education/MentorMob

Contributions

My partner and I split the wikibook into two sections. My responsibility was to find research and compose the "what is MentorMob section" and "The Cons of MentorMob" section. I linked appropriate references in those sections. Also, I uploaded the "hunting" picture as well. -JK-

I did several items in updating this wiki. First I went through the wiki and corrected spelling and easy grammar/formatting mistakes. I then fleshed out information in the What is Mentormob section, adding new information, changing sentence structure, and adding more content to information that was already provided. I also added new information in the content part of the wiki, added photos, and cleaned up this discussion section by adding Contributions and Comment tags. DarenG

I added a new section of information to the wiki regarding SOLO Taxonomy and found the photos that Daren and I uploaded to the wiki. Tiffany S.

Jami N. - I had no idea what MentorMob was! What a great resource. I think students and teachers can both benefit.Another tool for the toolbox!

Becky G. - I also did not know about MentorMob before this course. I can see how it could be used in several ways. It could be used by students but also by teachers to create their own lists that they want to use in future lessons. Thanks for introducing this.

Andrew W. - This is the first time I've been exposed to MentorMob. It appears to be a tool students will enjoy using. This is a more visual, user-friendly version of what I was trying to do with Google Bookmarks - organizing various websites into meaningful lists. Thanks for your research.

Jamie R - Like everyone else, I never heard of Mentor mob. I appreciated the section of the cons of MentorMob. I think it is important to let us see the whole picture of MentorMob when we are considering using it in the classroom.

I'd never heard of MentorMob before. It sounds like a great place to search for media files. Donna

I had to check this out immediately after I read your opening description. MentorMob appears to be a great site for organizing one's collection of media files. I know exactly what I can use it for at school, so I have it saved to my favorites list. Thanks for sharing! Darren

Thank you for including this in our Wikibook. I have never heard of Mentormob before now. Your picture was well placed and described, you also included some of the negative aspects (since everything has a down side). Well done and informative. Valerie

KS- I really enjoyed reading about MentorMob. This is the first that I heard of it. You added great information on it. I definitely see how it would be beneficial for both students and teachers to use. Thanks. My role in completing this was to include information on the pros of MentorMob as well as the implications for use within the classroom. I also created and uploaded the "Playlist" image. - Heather

I was really impressed with this Wikibook! I was not aware of MentorMob and was very intrigued by it. I will make sure to research this resource's capabilities and uses to utilize within my own classroom. This was very informative. This, for me, is a great example of using a Wikibook to gain knowledge and experience that I would not have received from a textbook or my own general research. Ryan L.
