Hi Classroom 2.0 members. My name is Lenka and I am classical philologist. I come from Macedonia but I live and work in Serbia as a Latin teacher. I am very happy to take part in this virtual classroom. I am sure that I will learn something new and (very important) I will practice English language. :)

I am Dick Cornell, Professor Emeritus in Instructional Technology from the University of Central Florida in Orlando and also Adjunct Professor in the Educational Technology program at the University of Texas at Brownsville.
I retired from UCF in 2003 following 44 years there, minus 18 months spent at Riverina College of Adanced Education in Wagga Wagga, New South Wales, Australia. In 2005 I was a Fulbright Secior Specialist at the Aerospace University in Karkov, Ukraine. It was my honor to hyave been the first American President of the International Council for Educational Media, a UNESCO NGO.
For the past several years I have been teaching a class for the University of Texas at Brownsville, eLearning International Issues and since 2008 have been teaching that class on-location in Taiwan and China, via Blackboard, wandering around and connecting twice each week back to Texas. Next year, when I turn 80 will most likely be the final summer of teaching the class and hopefully I will be doing so once more from Taiwan and China.
While I have been teaching with and about instructional design and eLearning most of my academic life I find the increasing complexity involved in using the various connective technologies is moving far more quickly than I am able to comfortable maintain the current skills needed to do a really good job, thus my continuing interest in trying to stay updated.
The attached photo was taken this past May in Lhasa, one of the remaining spots to visit while my health still permits such strenuous travel. It was, in a word, awesome!
I look forward to enjoying learning with all of you!
Dick

Hi everyone,
Finally I have been admitted to classroom 2.0. It promises great, I am impressed. I hope to be able to help and I am much eager. I am much interested in this topic of networking and connectivism. As far as I can see, this is the only initial development to the education sector. A lot positive development will come from here, you agree? Me yes and I am positive.
about me, well, I have been a teacher for 11 years now in Mauritius. I am sad to see pupils being disconnected from us. I want to be an ideal teacher and I want the teaching profession to improve, to be in line with our students 'exigencies'. I am happy to be of this decenny where changes are being forecast and I do hope they will not stay on paper - in our case, on the website.
I am actually following my MEd course where I have learnt all about connectivism, about 21st century globalisation, about psychology, etc.
Well here I am. Can anyone tell me in brief how I can help, how I can participate, etc.
Hope to hear from you soon,
Bye
Fee Min.

Hello Everyone!
My name is Donna Karno and I am a faculty in Early Childhood Education at University of Maine at Farmington. My family moved to Maine three years ago - I am originally from Phoenix so I guess I must like temperature extremes.Finding this site was great as our undergraduate and graduate students think about using web 2.0 in their classrooms. I am also interested in contacting anyone currently using web 2.0 in their science classrooms as I work on a manuscript focusing on science education and web-based technologies.
