As mentioned in previous posts, I worked this summer on reconfiguring my office to be a paperless environment. The work on the office is now complete, and I am already receiving a favorable response from staff. One of the first things they comment on is the new overall appearance of the office itself. All file cabinets and my desk have been removed, creating a space that is more of a conversation area than traditional office.…

buddy of mine is a
prodigous podcaster. He's also very
involved in this network. He's also one of my favorite mentors in the W2.0 world. He's shared all sorts of ideas and fueled fires for not only my my thinking, but also for my students. Recently, he's asked me to begin a podcast. I've got a podcast going for my students to show their…

One of the key principles of Web 2.0 is that through widespread collaboration and mass participation, the “wisdom of the crowds” emerges. Think Wikipedia’s self correcting
system.
Long before myspace, youtube, and Internet forums existed, people engaged in dialogue to expand understanding, test ideas and learn. From Socratic dialogue to the best classrooms of today,…

For now, it is just a waiting game and trying to do all of those things that don't require a network.
I am looking forward to this school year. I will not be responsible for teaching a 7th…

I would like to experiment with using a social network for middle school language arts. Since I am in the early stages of this sort of thing, I welcome any tips and advice. Here are my preliminary thoughts:
1. Right now, I think that my biggest hurdle will be to sell the idea to my principal, the other LA teachers and parents.
2. I need to articulate a clear purpose for this project.
3. Of course, I will also need to figure out expectations and…

I am the media specialist in a K-8 school. In the 07-08 I will be spending much of my time collaborating directly with classroom teachers and am searching for best practices and methods for integrating ed tech into these projects.
