FIlters

Mary - Your comment about filters brings up a good point. If you have students writing on a wiki or a thread or whatever, they learn the importance of filtering what they say. We all have times when out filters aren't working, but I think as adults we realize that there is a time and a place to let your guard and/or filter down. I had one student who made a somewhat inappropriate remark on my thread and when I responded he was rather embarassed that not only could all of his classmates read what he wrote, but so could I! This led to a great dicussion about putting comments and information "out there."
