I did something a little different for this assignment.  I hope it is okay, and that you like it.  You might want to view this in a new window.  Have a great day and night.

I wanted to pick more than one!  I have students who are ESL, Bilingual, and Special Education teachers.   They have asked me what they could do to “enliven” their presentations and get more of their students “hooked” into learning.  What I ask them is What would you like to have me do to support your [...]

I’ve had several shifts.  I’ve shifted some a little of my thinking in the idea of being a 24 / 7 teacher.  I’m really online most of any one day but to stay more fully connected to my students, they need to know that I am available.  I can actually have “office hours” for them [...]

I had been thinking about Plato and Socrates and what they would think of a paperless world.  They really didn’t know paper anyway!  Then the article starts out with what Thucydides would think.    Interestingly, I have been having my own graduate students submit their research drafts, and final papers electronically for a while.  I do [...]

When I first read the “theory” posed by Siemens I pretty much thought it was nonsense.  I still do.  That means I agree with the “con” point of view of my colleagues who posed their ideas at:

I agree with the critics that say it is a pedagogical point of view.  It seems [...]

I really do like SKYPE – when I’m not doing others things on the computer.  What I’ve learned to do is mark myself as “unavailable” during certain times of the day.  I do like the fact that my friends and I can carry on a conversation immediately.  I’m not bit on IMing and I see [...]

After a few retakes, I think I’ve got it! : )  I had fun doing this and now I think I’ll take a nap!  I hope you like my first foray into online broadcasting.  Have a neat day!

I saw many pictures that I thought were interesting and I suppose that several could be used for a blog or Wiki.  I’m more apt to use pictures that I have taken, or, as you may have noticed, drawings and other “art” work.  I do envision that my students could take pictures of their students [...]

A Wiki in My Classroom
I had the opportunity to work in a Wiki with a few others in another class.  We all posted poems, or plans, or our collective ideas on the subject and wrote replies to each other right in the Wiki.  It was a little easier than writing to our blogs actually.  [...]

LESSON PLAN FOR SOCIAL BOOKMARKING 

I will first need to determine what my students know about social bookmarking.  I suspect that many will have some idea about them, but may have not considered them as a means to enhance their own learning and teaching.  To that end, I will facilitate a short discussion asking some of [...]
