Hi, David. I am very glad to meet you! I have a feeling better to have been here in Korea. It's a little difficult for me to read quickly all the writings you and many people here have. I think it'll be better as times go by. It's good to share good ideas, when teaching students.

Hi, David,
I am a "newby" to this site and was introduced to it my an article in Edutopia magazine. I have taught for 41 years and am always interested in making my classroom a better place to learn. I will be watching Classroom 2 for lots of new ideas.

can you send me the complete diigo link so that I can join?

Hi David,

The tools I recommend you take a look at Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service. Here’s a public class recording conducted by Nellie Deutsch on Technology Integration.

Hi. Thanks for the request and the biggest question that I have for you is: what is it like teaching history in a private school? I have spent the last few years working in a public high school and would love to make the change.

Dear David, thanks very much for your comment however, I am not teaching History this year. I will note the resource for future use. Do you have any resources or links for English Literature? (esp. interactive stuff)?

David, I maintain an archive of historical art and architecture images up on Flickr that I license with Creative Commons noncommercial licensing so they can be freely used by teachers and students. The link is:

Very interested, will join today.

Hi David. Thanks and to be honest, the American system (from the way you described the Australian system) is pretty much the same. Looks like that we both have a similar interest in curriculum excellence, which in the American public system has its problems and I strongly prefer teaching outside the box. To answer your question, I am still in the learning process about tying educational technology to the history curriculum. I will stop by and check out the ideas that are posted and discover some that I would like to use next school year.

Thanks, David. I'll have to check that out.

David,
I'm going to check it out! History is the only subject I do not teach, but I'll get my teammate Amy Ertel (also a member) on the site as well.
We will be sharing lots as the school year starts in August.

Thanks David. I will certainly take you up on your offer. I may not - probably won't - have a thing to share, but I'm always looking for new ideas and this is just the kind of "place" I was hoping to find. Sue

Sounds great David. I will definitely check it out.

Thanks for the invite David and I will definitely check it out and share if possible. Thanks.
