Week 8-#19

I could see LibraryThing as a useful application in the classroom. If students had their own attached to their own blogs, they could put in the books we had read. Also, in the case of literature circles, they would have their individual choices. Additionally, they could put in other books they like to create a classroom community of readers, and extend to an online community of readers. I think this site would be less likely to assist in academic dishonesty. For example, many Yahoo Q & A seem like they come from an essay question.
