Above is a screen dump that I created on Jing of my RSS page.  I was able to find many sites and blogs that interested me to add to my RSS page.  This included: Science Blogs, MSNBC, Accuweather, and Science Magazine.  I also added the Health & Science NPR feed because I find that NPR covers many current science events.

I posted my comment to the blog Does technology enhance or detract from the wilderness experience? [Observations of a Nerd] through the Science Blogs RSS feed.  I commented on how I believe that technology has actually deliver the wilderness to my students because many of them have not had a lot of experience being in the wilderness.  I allows my students to have experiences with nature that they would never have without it (i.e. using the internet resources to support concepts that I am presenting to students in biology).

I have found while tracking my RSS feeds that update regularly and a few of them are hard to keep up with.  The Science Blog site streams several different blogs posted to the site.  This has allowed me to follow several different scientific topics that I can share with my students.  I chose the Accuweather RSS feed because I also teach a meteorology class and have found many resources from the site that I have the students use in my lesson.  I have found the MSNBC RSS feed is the hardest to keep up with regularly because of how often the site is updated, this also applies to the NPR: Top News feed.  I have my meteorology students do weekly current weather events (research the where, when and what of the event with question linking to the topic being discussed in class).  I allow the students to use several different sites to find their events, by having the Accuweather site and the MSNBC site it allows me to keep up on any weather events that my students may use for their assignment.  The science magazine RSS is more of a link to research current articles on topics that I am teaching.  I feel that I can use this as a primary resource to present to my students not only to supplement content but to also encourage student to strengthen their skills in inquiry.
