Thanks so much for posting this, and also for the logged sessions on the Learning 2.0 page. Many interesting sessions. At 11.59, you made the following comment: Bud: "It is messed up to make teachers learn outside of their work day all of the things that they need to know to do their work day better (teaching)" While I agree with this, I also feel that there's a new breed of teachers that have no problem being connected and working outside of the normal contract hours. Technology can make my job a lot easier. What we need now, though, is a seamless interface between working at home and accessing that work when you're back in school in front of a class. Currently in the SVVSD we have almost no ability to do this. Just last week I tried emailing two pdf quizzes I wrote at home the night before. They didn't get though the email filter--probably because of the attachments. One might think: "well just bring them on a flash drive." Nope--we've been told not to try using flash drives with our Thin Client terminals. I don't have a problem putting in some extra time at home. I just wish I didn't have to find really creative ways to get the products into the classroom. Richard Bud,

I don’t have a problem putting in some extra time at home. I just wish I didn’t have to find really creative ways to get the products into the classroom.
