Let's share links to our blogs!
I recently came across a few long-standing blogs that never crossed my path during my Google searches, and I was thinking that a Classroom 2.0 discussion about blog-sharing might be helpful, since we are members of "the social network for educators using collaborative technologies".
If you have a blog you'd like to share, either your own, or one that you'd recommend, post a reply with a link to the blog, the author's name, the focus of the blog, and perhaps a few words about why you find it interesting or useful.
Update: Follow me on Twitter

Here are my blogs:
TechPsych
Interactive Multimedia Technology
I have another blog that I use to post my reflections about what I'm learning in my mid-life journey as a computer/tech student:
The World Is My Interface
Update 7/24/09
It's been a while since I last visited Classroom 2.0. One of my schools is on a "year round" schedule, so we had Open House today. I can't believe the school year is starting once again! Because of the economic situation, we won't have enough school psychologists to go around, so I'll have another high school added to my schedule. It's a school for technology and the arts.

This is a tremendous site! I'll use it often now that I have found it. Please look at my blog for ideas; I teach senior English at Brandon Valley High School in South Dakota, United States. The address: scholarlynx.blogspot.com.

Thanks for this suggestion Lynn - I am a science and maths teacher at a small rural school in Victoria, Australia. All of our students between year 5 and year 7 have their own blogs, as well as many other students and teachers. Links to them all can be found at our school blog:
Hawkesdale P12...A Global Techno College
My blog, about science teaching and learning, web 2.0 tools and other exciting things we are doing at our school is at Technoscience.
Please come and visit us and leave a comment for our students and teachers - you may even develop a global partnership!

Lyn, I am most grateful for the OdioGo tip. I embedded it today in my blog, and showed a few friends too.
Thank you. This is the easiest text2speech podcasting tool yet.

Engaged Learning Revisited: Four Video-clips for Reflection
I revisited one of my previous blog-posts about engaged learning and revamped it. The new post contains four "must-see" video clips that I think would be interesting not only to educators, but for parents and others who are concerned about education, technology, and the future of our world.
A couple of the videos include interesting information visualizations.

I want to know how to use your slideshare feature! "What Happens When Students Have a Voice" is excellent. I'll attempt to get my own now. Thanks for showing me this!
