Inquiry & Reflection for Better Learning
I’ll be joining the fine folks at Teachers Teaching Teachers folks tonight to discuss some ideas and issues around supporting teachers as they take their students online. It’ll be a good conversation about partnerships, second wave adopters, and lots more. If you’re so inclined, consider joining us at 7pm Mountain in the EdTechTalk […]
Read More Talking TechI’m not making any money plugging their program, I promise, but Open Source keeps doing good and interesting stuff. And I thank them for that by sending you to listen, thereby draining their bandwidth and other resources even more. For your listening pleasure tonight, I offer an aural feast on plagiarism, intellectual property, […]
Read More Stealing, erm, Adding to the ConversationLots of good stuff has either slid through the podcatcher or across the TV screen lately. Thought you’d be interested in these two. Frontline is looking very seriously at the future of news as well as what it means to keep secrets in a four part series called NewsWar. A teacher’s guide is […]
Read More Media RoundUpEric’s started a great discussion on creating a "killer EdApp." Be sure to follow along in the comments — some smart folks are chiming in over there.

The value of blogging, as I’ve come to learn, is in the way that it requires that I interact with source material, either […]

I noticed that the site became blocked here a few days ago. YouTube has been blocked, for the same reason, for a while. Dear 8e6, please remove those […]
Read More HunchI never thought I’d say/write this, but I’m finding that I need a way to create footnotes in a blog entry. I use Typepad. Does anyone know of how/where I can create footnotes, preferably linkable ones, inside of my blog? I’m writing a big post, and I need the ability to annotate it. […]
Read More Footnotes? Me?I’m discovering more and more connections to the within my online networks. I wonder if someone has (or could) create a badge for folks who are NWP teachers. I have a hunch that there are lots of writing project teachers blogging. Wouldn’t it be handy if we had a ? (I created a […]
