Hey guys, great to be here! I'm currently a student at Stanford and am looking to use technology to create a safer, more engaging, and more rewarding online experience for children! If you are familiar with children/educational software or online social networking, please contact me! Looking forward to learning and sharing with you :)
I'm Dave, a fairly new middle school (7 & 8 grades) tech teacher who's still trying to redesign my curriculum. I'm a retired Coast Guard helicopter pilot that still needed that occasional feeling of stark terror so I teach 12 & 13 year-olds. I teach at a private school in the Seattle area.
I love my job but I'd really like to move beyond what I inherited (teaching MS Office to my students for a full school year). I'm hoping that my students will get the opportunity to connect with another classroom and use some of the latest communication tools.
Thanks for reading this! I'd appreciate any suggestions you might have regarding curriculum.
My name is Baira. I teach English and German at the Kalmyk State University in Elista, the capital of Repubic of Kalmykia, part of the Russian Federation.
Glad to join you!
Hi, I'm Diana Maxwell a special education reading teacher from Chesterfield, Virginia. I'm looking to collaborate with others and learn all I can about new ways to help my students.
Hi, my name is Carolyn and I'm in Prescott, AZ. I have been looking for a way to have discussion boards with my students in my HS English classes for some time now. It seems that this might just be the way to start my interactive classroom. Are there examples of other teacher's sites that I can see in full swing? I'm interested in having students participate in book discussions and maintain group projects on 2.0.
I live at Jacksonville Beach, FL and teach English Honors II Stanton College Preparatory School. I have been using web 2.0 tools in my class this year and my students really enjoy writing on our blog & using our wiki to add graphics to vocabulary study. I am interested in collaborating with another school or class.

It was made for teachers, so you don't have to worry about unwanted posts or creeps trying to contact your students. We are just getting started, but I am impressed so far!
My name is Lindsey Anderson and I teach Middle and High School language arts in Tama, Iowa. I work with all Native American students and am interested in developing their 21st century learning skills. I don't have very many tech savvy colleagues at school, so I am looking to connect with others who enjoy infusing technology into their teaching.
Hope to hear from you!
Hello, I just found Classroom 2.0 because of an assignment. For my masters class at University of New England we had to use technology to present our knowledge of differentiated instruction to our colleagues. I made a blog on the topic.
While working on my blog, I discovered that teachers are all over the web sharing with each other. This is especially thrilling to me because I live and work in Cairo, Egypt. Currently, I teach special education at American International School. Sometimes I feel very isolated from other teachers so far from home. I am originally from Vinton, Ohio and teach at Eastern High School in Reedsville when I am in the states.
