How to video: Create a class assignment using Ning

Once you've created your classroom's Ning social network, you'll want to get your students involved. Setting up a Ning social network class assignment is easy for teachers and fun for students. Ning provides Web 2.0 technologies such as blogs, message boards and chatrooms. Teachers can introduce an assignment with the blog or message board and have students respond using the comment feature, their own blog or posting to the message board.

The Ning social network also provides options for adding YouTube video, VoiceThread presentations and other useful links. The above how to video demonstrates how to create a classroom assignment using your Ning social network, in 5 minutes or less.
