Please sign your name under one of the following groups (Note: The first person to put your name under a group, please indicate your project ideas so that the other colleagues know if they will join your group).

Group 1: Our group plans to do our PBL project on blogs. We would like to create a blog that would be used by middle school students to reflect on books they have read, to use as a guide to choose books they may be interested in, to use as a resource for homework help related to literature. MEGAN KERRIGAN ROSSANA PLUCHINSKY SARAH PRINCE Our Group Wiki Page: http://literatureblogwiki.wikispaces.com/

Group 2 Our group plans to create a web site for a secondary school media center to provide information and resources for students, parents, and faculty members. Julie Wheeler Scilla Sprano Wiles Shannon McPherson Lauren Gregory Robinete Cotton Ronald Stallsmith

Group 3 Our group doesn't have a specific plan yet, but we are focusing on technology applications that can be used in a mathematics classroom. Feel free to join if this interests you too. Holly Cain Diana Delauder Daryl Hannes Rob Buchwald Wicki is located at : http://ll351.wikispaces.com/group3; We have found email better at this time until all of the group can access wiki and blog spaces due to technical difficulties (that's part of distance learning and technology also)

Group 4 We will prepare a WebQuest geared towards high school students focusing on issues of Internet privacy, safety, and security. Stacia Biddle Pamela Gibson Angela Reagins Scott Weitzenhoffer Ann Wilke Steffanie Schenk Group 4's wiki page is http://scottwksu.wikispaces.com/PBL-Group4

Group 5 Our group would like to create a website that contains children's literature that can be used to teach a variety of skills that are required in the state's content standards. The website could be used by teachers, parents, and librarians. Kelly Lanci Amy Wolski Pamela Van Arsdale (very close, Kelly :-) ) Group 5's wiki page is http://kap-pbl.wikispaces.com

Group 6 Our group is not sure yet what our project will be as some of us come from varying backgrounds, however we will be posting our idea soon. Laura Birkhimer Julie Wilcox Terry Furman Group 6's wiki page is http://homeworkassistance.wikispaces.com/

Group 7 I have not had much luck finding a group...I have emailed a few people in vista but have not gotten a response. I am interested in completing my problem on computer related health (i.e. posture, eye strain, etc). If anyone is interested in joining please add your name! =) Samantha Puhalsky Evren Koptur Jill Gentrie Group 7's Wiki page http://havahrt.wikispaces.com/
