Online Learning Environment for Gifted Students

After attending the NICE (Northern Illinois Computer Educators) conference yesterday, I am full of new ideas to use in my classroom! Today, I created an "online learning environment" for my gifted students. It is connected to our classroom wiki. This virtual space is a place for me to post challenging tasks, open ended questions, and for my gifted students to collaborate with each other. My students are very interested in technology and I am excited to see how they react when introduced to the environment. They are "authors" of the space and can post their own comments, answers, and questions.
