Time to put my foot where my mouth is…or is it mouth where my foot is?
My review of NECC 2006 wasn’t all that pleasant. But now it’s time to shut up and put up. So I’ve decided to submit a proposal for NECC 2007. I’m starting to understand how difficult it is to think about what to present 8 months before the actual conference. So here’s the thing. If you are, or are planning to […]

Not sure how old, but our apartment is a construction zone and it was built in 2001, so at least that old. My […]
Moodle ran Student Council
I had the Vice Principal approach me last week about Moodle. She’d been hearing the buzy from the faculty who have been using it and wanted to learn more about it.
