The Post Where I Say I Told You So

August 23rd, 2006 · 2 Comments

    Back in June, I got to meet Karl Fisch and hear what he’s up to.  I mentioned that folks might want to pay attention.  I knew good stuff was coming. 
    I told you so.  (Sorry — couldn’t resist.  Not like anyone doubted me.  I just like being right.)
    If you haven’t yet seen "Did You Know?," it’s time.  I was totally and completely blown away.  I’m probably going to show it to my journalism students tomorrow.
    And that’s just his "back to school" icebreaker.  Man, I wish I lived/worked a little bit further south.
    What’s next, Karl?

Kimberly was kind enough to mention a piece I wrote that has recently been published.  I had meant to mention it — but then the school year started.  (Remember summer?  I liked summer.) 
She writes:

I read a great article in the September 2006 issue of Classroom Connect’s Newsletter by Bud Hunt entitled
“Blogging for Professional Development”. I’ve been thinking about my
opening day meeting with teachers and wondering how I can succinctly
describe blogging to a varied audience.  A very few of my teachers are
still struggling with email. So I’m excited to find Bud’s excellent
article which is in a more traditional format that everyone can
understand. Thanks Bud!

You’re quite welcome, Kimberly.  Glad to be useful.
