Bud the Teacher

• @davecormier I laughed at Oakland pretty much the whole game. Not good football. in reply to davecormier #
• Just realized that, since we changed the filter, MySpace/Facebook fair game for digital footprint work I'm doing with 9th graders today. #
• I had filter blindness. Whoops. These things matter. #
• What do your technologies condition you to ignore or avoid thinking about? #
• @beverson @dmagy Both good reminders. #
• @lisahalpern Dm'ed you. My sincere apologies. in reply to lisahalpern #
• @mhttaggs Sure thing. What's the context? @milobo in reply to mhttaggs #
• Americans are reading more online but this is leading to the decline of American #literature.http://ow.ly/qpAD (via @americagovprint) #
• @MrChase Wait. You mean that hasn't already started? in reply to MrChase #
• A retweet does not imply consent. Or does it? #
• @ClareLane @karlfisch Good teaching means putting multiple viewpoints in play. I'm teaching in this space. So I'll RT stuff with which … in reply to ClareLane #
• Full page of retweets of this morning's question. Which is, in and of itself, interesting. #
• No. A RT doesn't suggest agreement. Or consent. #
• #eci831 with guest Dr. Richard Schwier, intro to learning communities starting in 8 minutes, join us at http://bit.ly/3rpDS (via @courosa) #
• Rain tonight means there'll be no deck
  staining tomorrow. Sadly, there's still
  an office to clean. And appointments to keep. #
• RT @alfiekohn From the archives: “Education’s Rotten Apples: …Bad Practices Can Undermine the Good”: http://bit.ly/KWcSC #
• RT @KyleneBeers Join the conversation re Common Core State Standards at the NCTE Ning. Use link in my letter at http://tiny.cc/h0l9q. #
• Still some seats available for my NCTE webinar next week. Join us if you can. http://bit.ly/16z6eG #
• @SVVSDLibraries Totally understand. I'll do it for y'all for free, though. #
• Ultrasound. #
• Looks like Ani and Teagan are going to have a sister. http://twitpic.com/iuncr #
• One with two arms, two legs, and a reasonably-sized head. #
• 20 weeks to come up with a name and a clever room scheme. #
• @karlfisch Most definitely. in reply to karlfisch #
• @cytochromec I RTed an article by Kohn that addresses that very issue. If they are grading and correcting, the corrections aren't helpful. in reply to cytochromec #
• @cytochromec We learn to write by writing. For real audiences and purposes. in reply to cytochromec #
• RT @SVVSDLibraries Library Of Congress launches website aimed at readers http://bit.ly/iNT99 #
• @cytochromec I have issues with lots of folks. But the studies cited in that piece are two I want to follow up on. in reply to cytochromec #
• @juliafallon That's the best way to think about it I've heard yet. Cool. in reply to juliafallon #
• "Cinderella" has been suggested as a possible baby name by Ani. She also gave us "Teagan Two." Love it. #
• Good grief. The naming floodgates have opened. All suggestions welcome. #
• @2020Nexus Um. Well. Er. No. in reply to 2020Nexus #
• @garystager I always thought Budweena was a fine name for other people's daughters. But not my own. I could never afford all that therapy. in reply to garystager #
• I'm thinking "Blogger" isn't bad, @garystager. But "wiki" would just be mean. #
• @genghiskhanir That's actually better than it sounds on first look. in reply to genghiskhanir #
• @JackieB Math patterns isn't a bad idea. We've gone more wordy with the other two – mostly because we're language arts-types. in reply to JackieB #
• @dlaufenberg Do we get final approval, or are we taken out of the decision entirely? in reply to dlaufenberg #
• @ddmeyer Keanu & Patrick? Far better movie than it should be. in reply to ddmeyer #
• @dlaufenberg Sounds dangerous. in reply to dlaufenberg #
• @dlaufenberg Something like this?: http://bit.ly/2Ll45W (I'm not committing to anything.) in reply to dlaufenberg #
• @2020Nexus Dangerous. in reply to 2020Nexus #
• @karlfisch I figure it's at least a good prewriting activity, a chance to shake our collective sillies out. in reply to karlfisch #
• @dlaufenberg Oh, man. in reply to dlaufenberg #
• @adinasullivan Are there various learning styles? in reply to adinasullivan #
• @adinasullivan No argument – I haven't enough knowledge. Asking. (That said, I think online coursework in general leans too much on text.) in reply to adinasullivan #
• So. Sidewiki's going to cause some trouble, huh? #
• Math curriculum adoption meeting. Getting interesting. #
• @megbg76 Building our framework for evaluation. Good process of unpacking expectations and beliefs. in reply to megbg76 #
• @JackieB Possibly. Broad at the moment. in reply to JackieB #
• About to teach an "Intro to Moodle" course. Fun stuff. #
• Yeah. But whose values? http://twitpic.com/j0hrw #
• Buying yarn for tomorrow's work with Flagstaff Academy. #
• My apologies to those of you seeking access to my Moodle class. Perhaps another time. #
• @gailhd Yeah. I'm a one-trick guy. But it's not a bad trick. http://bit.ly/1MIVzf in reply to gailhd #
• @gailhd: Oh yeah? in reply to gailhd #
• Seriously. Slides. #
• @milobo Um. They're both tech. Perhaps not the expected tech. But tech nonetheless. #
• @kchichester Were they good slides? I was looking at some NASA images from 1990 tonight – and they're still pretty mindblowing. in reply to kchichester #
• @zmidler: It'll be okay. I promise. in reply to zmidler #
• @kchichester Okay. There's that. I'm reminded of a poem. in reply to kchichester #
• Today's poem: "When I Heard the Learn'd Astronomer" by Walt Whitman. http://bit.ly/4h6Ak7 #

• .@kwbenson: Kind of you. Share this one, if you get a chance. http://bit.ly/7VUy2 in reply to kwbenson #
• Bonus poem: "Miracles" by Walt Whitman. http://bit.ly/7VUy2 #
• RT @mguhlin Share your opinion re: Challenging Assertions http://ff.im/-8HoaY #

• @cs272 I'll be there. But I'll be slow. But let's give it a whirl. in reply to cs272 #
• Spending the day today at Flagstaff Academy here in Longmont. Looking forward to learning lots. http://flagstaffacademy.org #
• @kwbenson Get to it. You've got lots of important stuff to share. in reply to kwbenson #
• Now learning from my dad's trusted tech support guy. Love it. #
• By the way – if your projector ever explodes in the middle of a presentation, it's handy to have @milobo in the room. Just saying. #
• Interesting tool for looking at safe student online behavior. http://bit.ly/15Q2S9 #
• This is cool. Dean of School Culture here at Flagstaff. Runner. Big goal. http://puggerrunner.com/ #
• The real tragedy of the proliferation of student text messages is the loss of the art of note folding. #
• @hpitler Quite right. Cell phones are too heavy to flick across the table. For now. in reply to hpitler #
• Finally getting to take a digital storytelling workshop from @milobo. Wow. #
• @zmidler: It'll be great. in reply to zmidler #
• Stories were made. Laughing also happened. Good stuff. http://drop.io/beyonddigitalstorytelling #
• Wow. Fun and educational day at Flagstaff. Reminds me of the importance of job embedded professional learning and development. #
• @beverson I may have fixed the blog server. Take a look and let me know. #
• @largeswope Yes. Can we talk Monday/Tuesday next week? in reply to largeswope #
• Finally programmer the minivan's garage door opener buttons. Because, you know, it was time. #
• @beverson And that's why we test. We will keep at it. Some process is running constantly, I'm told. in reply to beverson #
• @budtheteacher You mean programmed, right? in reply to budtheteacher #
• I was asked how much time I spend blogging today. My answer should have been, "Not enough." #
• @fceblog I believe it was more like, "I used to blog more." in reply to fceblog #
• @shareski Yeah. Daughter #3 is coming in February. Thanks! in reply to shareski #
• @shareski My slides probably don't stand alone all that well. in reply to shareski #
• @pugger You're ever so welcome. Glad it was useful. in reply to pugger #
• @shareski Thanks much. Will do. in reply to shareski #
• Don't Get Mad, Ask Questions: Anger is a staple of modern public discourse. Perhaps, . . .http://bit.ly/AHe0Q (via @johncr8on) #
• Grill's hot. Homemade sauce is about to make its way onto some chicken. Yum. #
• @nashworld Sure. Make friends with caterers who understand barbecue as an art form – and start with vinegar. in reply to nashworld #
• @nashworld If it looks like ketchup, why bother? (Carolina vinegar and mustard guy.) in reply to nashworld #
• @nashworld Not entirely. My father's recipe which I don't yet know well enough to share. One day. in reply to nashworld #
• @nashworld Soy goes on all my red meat. With garlic salt. Yum. in reply to nashworld #
• Success. http://twitpic.com/jaema #
• @nashworld Ah, tuna. Would that my wife were a seafood person. But yes. in reply to nashworld #
• @shareski We can never know the totality of our influence in the world, or what conversations happen in response to our work. in reply to shareski #
• @shareski (That's the eloquent way to say there's no good and easy tool for that that always works.) in reply to shareski #
• @cribchronicles I'll ask you about a little girl name another time then. But know that I will be asking. in reply to cribchronicles #
• Ice cream run. #
• @davecormier Huh. What a silly thing to argue. Linking IS attribution, isn't it? in reply to davecormier #
• Lots of ice cream minded folk out tonight. On Twitter, too. #
• @davecormier Wait. You mean people are agents with, oh, perhaps, agency? They can think and adapt? Hmm. in reply to davecormier #
• @davecormier Of course, he does have "data," so of course the guy's right. in reply to davecormier #
• @davecormier I wonder the same thing about myself. There's probably 12 steps that'll help us through that. in reply to davecormier #
• @davecormier Yeah. We get those references. in reply to davecormier #
• @coolcatteacher 30 minutes or less or the tier two intervention is free. in reply to coolcatteacher #
• @injenuity I encourage people to always be in conversation with people with whom they disagree. Blogs or not. in reply to injenuity #
• @aleaness If DQ delivered, I'd be homebound. in reply to aleaness #
• @injenuity Or because they saw in a book. Or a magazine. Or a pamphlet. Or on television. in reply to injenuity #
• Excellent _Austin City Limits_ rerun tonight. Sufjan Stevens and Calexico. Nice. http://bit.ly/SGd9N #
• On again at midnight on Channel 12 if you're in the Denver area. I'm going to DVR. #
• @coolcatteacher No clue. Probably the same folks who see children as pails to be filled. in reply to coolcatteacher #
• @hrheingold Modern Family was funny. FastFotward – well, time will tell. Some deep questions hidden in the premise. The novel isn't bad. in reply to hrheingold #
• Not this year. But it's well worth the trip. #
• If you can get there, you should go. It's good. http://bit.ly/20VqKX #
• Going to miss Educon this time around. But I'll be in Philadelphia in November. Coincidence? Well, yeah. #
• @dlaufenberg I will. I hope y'all are sharing work. in reply to dlaufenberg #
