Currently on a self-funded sabbatical year having completed three 2-year contracts in international schools in Spain, Turkey and Colombia. The plan is to start at another overseas school in August 2009 and spend the year catching up on technology practices while we travel around the USA and Canada in our van. My prime career interest is the professional development of classroom teachers to integrate technology into their lessons, and my personal technology interests are photography, video, music and writing. My preferred educational philosophy revolves around experiential education with little enthusiasm for current trends in standardized testing, benchmarks, etc. We are keen to visit schools or individuals developing learning environments in which exploration, as old-fashioned as it may seem, is at the heart of their practice.
With your work in Technology Practices, 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.
I did seem to be slow to load this afternoon. It's possible that more people were adding their names then or that it just isn't the right choice for this application. I'll keep an eye on it.

I'm in California. I use Wiziq to teach my night AP classes.
