When Google Wave went public near the end of last school year, I tried out a quick (and honestly half-baked) project that went over really well. I was really excited about trying to incorporate it…Continue

Comment by Jennie Reaves on December 5, 2009 at 2:59pm: Good evening,
I am an instructional coach in an elementary school and have been using Google Wave for the past month (mostly for fun, non-school related reasons). Most recently, I was able to work collaboratively with other educators at the VASCD conference in Williamsburg, VA in a note-taking/communication capacity while either attending the same session or separate sessions . I am interested in how other educators are making use of Google Wave with colleagues and with students.

Thanks, Jennie

Comment by Loren Baum on December 5, 2009 at 5:02am: Hi I publish a blog about using networked personal computers as collaborative learning tools, especially with Google Wave.

Want a Wave invite? If you are an educator or student just fill out this form.

Already on wave? Here is a listing of interesting waves about education.

Skeptical? Curious? Check out this analytical article questioning whether wave is revolutionary for education... or just hype.

Comment by Linzey Loupe on December 1, 2009 at 1:10pm: Hi All!! I am a TeachUp! Intern in Mississippi and my job is to help integrate technology in the classroom. After viewing the preview for Google Wave I think this would be amazing to use in my school. If someone would be so kind to send me a Google Wave invite that would be great. linzeyloupe@gmail.com

Comment by Lindsey @SmartEd Services on December 1, 2009 at 11:25am: Would you be interested in presenting or attending our upcoming Ohio Free-Tech 2010 Conference? I extend this opportunity to you, your colleagues, and graduate students to share research findings regarding technologies in the classroom, 21st century pedagogical approaches, 24/7 learning environments and communication skills that effectively engage digital natives.

Following the conference(s), SmartEd Services will be happy to make your research available via www.teachsmart.org and other social media networks.
Though we are a technology reseller, our mission is to create understanding, not simply to sell “stuff.” This conference offers teachers and administrators the opportunity to come together and explore these integrated technologies and methodologies.

Recognizing the fiscal constraints facing Ohio’s schools, and with the knowledge that training budgets have been cut, we have taken it upon ourselves to bring professional development to these educators. Conferences will be held in January and February at locations in Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus and Toledo. They are offered at no charge to the attendees. Also, please know that we will not use this as a platform for sales.

Our goal is for attendees to walk away with a better understanding of their students’ needs and how proper technology integration addresses those needs through a range of disciplines and learning styles.

Presentation application forms can be downloaded at www.teachsmartconference.org. For more information, please call (800) 251- 4077 x397.
