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.

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 Interactive Interface

(I changed the name of the blog to reflect my current topics.)

Update 6/15/10

It has been a very busy school year! The exciting news is that one of my schools has a multi-touch SMARTTable, and every classroom has an interactive whiteboard. The teachers worked very hard to ramp up their IWB skills and I'm amazed at how quickly this interactive technology was adopted. Of course, interactive applications and websites are pretty awesome on a huge screen or display! The best part is that this technology has opened up the minds of a good number of students with severe autism characteristics.

In April, I participated in a workshop at ACM's 2010 CHI conference. The topic of the workshop focused on the next generation of human-computer interaction and education.

I also joined the SparkOn group, "a social platform for people that are sparked (inspired) by creative and emergent technologies".

Hi Lyn,

Great idea to share blogs like this - especially for someone new to the concept like me. It is always good to see what others are doing, find some "new" people to follow - and who knows, maybe even get a few more followers myself.

My blog is http://nbnotewell.blogspot.com/ It is about all things educational - more looking at "big picture" issues at the moment rather than specific skills in the classroom. Hopefully it will strike a chord with a few people out there. I'm looking forward to following some of the links presented here. Again, a great idea for a discussion.

Cheers,

Neville

if you use twitter and use the #comments4kids hastag, you will get a lot of traffic to your blog. Do a search on the tag first to see how it works. It was set up by NZ and US teachers about 18 months ago and has exploded!
