About Me
I work for EASTCONN as a staff developer for school districts in the Quiet Corner of CT. Web2.0 tools are so exciting for me because of their potential to provide kids with authentic, project and problem based learning experiences and they are free! I work with teachers and students on weaving the best of what the Web2.0 tools have to offer with best practices in teaching and learning.

    Welcome, Rebecca!
    So glad to have you a part of our Elementary Reading Teachers group! We're gaining members every day, so I'm hoping to have some RICH discussions this year!

    Okay, so if we belong to one ning, they use the same information when we join others? Am I correct in this statement?

    Hi Rebecca,
    Did you notice the comment on our DRA discussion about wanting a copy of your PowerPoint which describes the differences between DRA and DRA2? Would you be willing to either post that through Slideshare or email it to me and I'll post it on our Reading Teachers Group page?
    Thanks!

    Hi
    I do use Wordpress for YouthRadio (which we hope to get up and running again this year). You can upload and store MP3 files right in WP, but I pay for an account with Box.Net because I use it for all sorts of storage and sharing of a variety of files. And I like having ownership of all of my files.
    WP has been fine, although I kind of wish we had started in Edublogs.

    On another note, I went to school at ECSU, so I know your neck of the woods quite well.

    Good luck
    Kevin
