[LM_NET] TARGET: ELEM Using Goodreads

[Jennifer Scypinski <jscypins@GMAIL.COM>]

I am trying out Goodreads.com with a 5th grade class as an easy and fun way
for the teacher to keep track of the books the students have read. I chose
Goodreads because I can set up one account for the class and each student
has a “shelf.” They add and give a short review of the books they have read
to their “shelf” and then other students in the class and the teacher can
easily read them. I have set the account as private and we have gone over
the ground rules for the site and general internet safety. We are not using
the social networking or discussion groups at this time. We just started
this project and I am wondering if anyone else has any experience with this?
I would love to hear any positive and negatives comments and suggestions.

Thanks!
