Teacher Needs Support. I am working on my graduate research study and need perspectives from 10 K-12 teachers on what drives them to learn and engage in virtual communities like C 2.0. Please consider participating as your input and expertise would contribute greatly to the research. Click here for more information.

Is there a member here in this group who works in rural or peri-urban South Africa or Southern Africa and is interested in a FLOSS social networking site - especially designed for learners and teachers - that functions off-line, so that interrupted Internet connectivity and low Internet quota isn't a problem?

Anyone have experience in using Moodle?

We support open educational resources and cost-effective technology aid to take the full advantage of digital contents and tools in classrooms.

We provide interactive projector or interactive module which give you interactive whiteboards on any surface but only cost a fraction of traditional ones.

Hello, have a website called MEET ME AT THE CORNER, Virtual Field Trips for Kids (www.meetmeatthecorner.org) . I am very interested in using technology in the classroom and developing a website that is helpful to the classroom teacher.

Programming! does anyone know of any kid friendly programming software for up to an 8th grade level?

Hi, My name is Bill and I work in a school district in Ontario Canada. We use a mixture of WordPerfect and Microsoft Office in the classroom. WordPerfect version 12 is provided by the Ministry of Education to school districts for free. MS Office is something that we have to purchase over and over again.

For a variety of reasons I would like to champion a move to replace both Office suites with Open Office. These reasons are clear to me ... such as student take home, compatibility, features and finally price... This does not mention all the benefits to FLOSS and the community support compared to any proprietary software.

Do you know of districts that have moved to Open Office?

What are the issues?

What about importing old WordPerfect documents... I have trouble with the graphics that in the wpg (wordperfect) format.

Do you know of case studies, feature comparisons etc that might help?

Thanks in advance for any information you can provide.

Bill
