Hello,

I'm sending out messages to everyone I know right now, and this virtual Ning network is no exception. My name is Andy Pethan. I am a 21 year old student from Olin College of Engineering. I am a part of a group of 6 Olin students (near Boston) who is taking a year off to pursue our interests in education, entrepreneurship, design and technology, bringing us to the logical project of a business that designs collaborative software for schools! I found you in a search for "middle school", and since our project is specific to middle schools, I thought you might be interested. Our project is called AlightLearning, and this is our "short" project description:

We are working under the assumption that within ten years, the landscape of modern education will have fully integrated what we now define as new classroom media and tools: video, online collaboration, open source curriculum, and internet-based software. We hope to pioneer a web software tool that acts as a platform for this new media, bringing the power of the web and its tools to students, teachers and parents in a secure, comfortable and innovative environment. More importantly, and unlike many of our competitors, our software will empower teachers to better integrate higher level thinking skills, individualized learning, goal setting, reflection, and effective feedback and evaluation. Our goal is to have our free software at a pilot middle school by April 15th, 2008, continuing to develop and coordinate with our users to create a product that other schools and individual teachers will want to use to improve their students' learning in and out of the classroom.

Our team is currently trying to win an idea competition on Ideablob.com You can find us at http://ideablob.com/3975. We would love your support in the form of a vote within the next couple days, but more importantly we'd love your feedback and comments. Our description on Ideablob is short, and even the one above hardly gets at many of the issues we would like to take a stab at solving, but at least it's a start. Note that winning this contest will raise $10,000, a large and useful sum of money for a web-based company running on “sweat equity” and minimal costs.

Feel free to email me back, post on my profile, check out alightlearning.com, or do anything you like!

Thanks,
Andy Pethan

Salut Anne !
Dans notre réseau L'Ecole hors les murs nous avons quelques groupes pour apprendre les différents langages. Peut-être tu peux te joindre et te partager avec nous tes idées pour apprendre le français.
Merci:) A bientôt !

Hi Anne

Welcome to Classroom 2.0 ! I am a French and Spanish teacher too and you may interested to check out the links to resources I have on my blog, My Languages, for French and Spanish. Go to my blog and click on the corresponding delicious tag on the right e.g. French or Spanish(the list of tags is very long, you might fancy something else like ICT or software to check out some of those web 2.0 tool! )

I hope it is of use.

That' a great idea! Adjectvie agreement, is very important. Made me think of another possible curriculum use for Science. Kids could sort their wild selves by the various features and get a "wild self taxonomy". I will have to think on that some more. Thanks!
If you use Pownce or Twitter, my username is n2teaching...bet that is a surprise;D Several of my Twitter colleagues are here on CR2.0 and are language teachers.

Thanks! I had fun creating it. I think the peacock feathers option was under "backsides". I actually used that site for an assignment in my Spanish classes. I had the kids create their wild self and then they had to describe it. Great practice for adjective agreement. They loved it.

Love your NYCZoo avatar. I used many of the same elements as you. How did you get the peacock feathers AND butterfly wings? Looks great together. I put my avatar on the savanna, but yours looks great in the rainforest;D
