The idea behind integrating new technologies into pedagogical practice has a lot to do with new ways of teaching and learning. Essentially, the question is: "What can I do now that I could not do before? What sorts of pedagogy does this technology enable that was not possible without it?"

Below I list some of the things that are made possible by each of three technologies: hyperlinks, RSS and tagging. The question remains: "What pedagogy does X facilitate?" The purpose of this wiki is to collect ideas and sources as we think about incorprating these tools into our teaching. I invite you to add your thoughts as well.

If you contribute anything to this wiki please add your name (email or blog hyperlink optional) to the list of contributors.
