Module 8

RSS Feeds - what exactly does RSS mean? Really Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary. I still don't know what it means, but I'm really liking the idea. As a religious viewer of the FIFA World Cup games, I've added the FIFA.com website and now I am able to view all news updates from the site. I can see the benefit of this branching out to the classroom. I'm a regular viewer of teacherstv and if I add a subscription to that on my RSS feed, then I'd get updated podcasts/videos from that site. I think it would be a good teacher resource but, I'm not certain that it is a resource children should be using at school. It would be very hard to monitor the content that is being filtered through to students.
