I’ve been tagged a couple of times now for the 8 Random Things meme that’s been going around. Guess that means I better put them up and tag some others. 1. After 5 years of not owning a car…we bought one this summer. 2. The 6 weeks that was my summer I never spent more than 5 nights in the […]
IETP Form Share and Share a like
A couple people have asked for the IETP we created for our teachers. I love it when I actually create something that I can share back to the community that gives me so much. I did take it off our letterhead and add a Creative Commons license to it. Please use and if you remix it…please share with others. Technorati […]
Getting my ducks in a row
Thank you to everyone who commented and read my last post…the comments meant a lot to me (they always do) I guess that’s part of the reason why we all blog…that feeling we’re not alone. That we’re not insane in thinking the way we think…feel the way we feel. I still remember reading Warlick for the first time and saying […]
Refocusing on what matters
There was a point this summer not long after NECC that I started wondering if I was doing the right thing. Are we barking up the wrong tree? It hit me as I sat in the car one day looking at a bunch of people waiting at a bus stop. As I sat at the red light I starting thinking […]

It’s been good though…spent 3 days in San Diego visiting my sister-in-law and time with family and friends over the other days has made it worth being disconnected. The time I have been online has been focused on the graduate course I’m teaching for Plymouth State University. The […]
One of those moments
So Yesterday I get done writing about how society and our use of networks and technology is why school need to change and headed out to do some shopping and get some pictures printed off for family and friends. We’ve been living overseas now for 5 (going on 6) years. Every summer when we return on holiday we find that […]
Pedagogy defines School 2.0 (revisited)
I was reading Will’s post today It’s Not Just the “Read/Write” Web and then thanks to twitter John Pederson’s post on Networks (I think that’s what it’s on anyway). As I read I started thinking about a post I did back in January on defining School 2.0. Not sure if it’s OK to quote yourself but back then I wrote: […]
My aggregator of choice
Pat Kennedy left a comment yesterday on the RSS in Plain English post. Which aggregator is conducive to a classroom environment Bloglines or Google Reader? Organizing feeds by disciplines is important to me. Are they advertisement free? There are a lot of great aggregators out there finding one that is right for you and your students is like shopping for […]
Vacation, Class, Collaboration
I’ve been back from NECC for a couple of days and back into the Mariners having gone to their last two games of the home stand the last couple of days. I’ve been taking it easy this week before my graduate course starts next week for Plymouth State University. It’s my first time teaching a graduate level course and I’m […]
