It's great to be working with him and Richard!
Are you leading any courses on PLNs or Moodle in the near future?
a) Wikipedia
b) ThinkQuest
But best to read Lorenz's original book. I raised the hairs on my neck.
thanks for your comment. i am delighted to have found classroom 2.0 as my entry point to ning - via a google search for "digital languages" and would love to find ways of working with you - plus any guidance into finding my way around the classroom and connecting with others who share a realization of the possibilities of the diversity of free collaborative, and finding out how to design, set up and facilitate classrooms - eventually one or more for each of the many projects and networks i have been involved with.
i am not sure if i have succeeded in inserting a video, and will try embedding one by a novice - myself - with a flipvideo - wonderfully simple and inexpensive video cameras for sharing voices and visions of people and communities throughout the world - in the spirit of the 1980 MacBride Report: Many Voices, One World
:)
I would appreciate any feedback on this.
Thanks
