I have just finished the section on RSS. I found the google search engine very easy to use and the subscription system to be a breeze. Everything seemed to work. Of course, I am doing this from home... what happens at school is anyone's guess. I like the concept of keeping track of new posts and not looking at things that I already have examined and determined to be a "bad fit" for my students.
I subscribed to some of the material on health and fitness and chemistry. It worked very well and I found some crystal growth experiments that I am considering using for the upcoming year. I was looking for some earlier this year but didn't find any that I thought that my students could do.
The only problem that I find with this is that I have to check another website on the computer to see if there were any updates. I barely have enough time to do what is necessary on the computer, never mind look up other things. This is always part of the problem. I am hoping that by subscribing to some of these sites, I won't have to spend more time looking all over the web to get my answers. Somebody has done the work for me and has given me the connection to actually get the information quickly.
