Thanks for the invite.

I am new to the group and classroom 2.0 as I just heard of it in a seminar we had yesterday on Podcasting.

I have offered a course in computerized accounting which was web based. I had the opportunity of teaching a student in Australia. I once started teaching the course in Paris while on a trip.

Hi Paul,
I am a strong supporter of integrating technology in the classroom to facilitate learning and making lessons interesting for the students. You are invited to visit my website WordAhead where you can organize activities for the students and encourage them to make videos and upload them to the website and rate each other's work. Its a great interactive way to improve vocabulary. Do take a look!

Teachers...I would like to invite you to a network I'm building called "Take Control of your Classroom!" I am trying to get teachers and parents involved in making a positive change in the current ed. system.

I haven't opened the website to anyone but my mom and my close friends/teachers, but I'd like to invite all of YOU to help me get it started because I have seen what sound thinkers you are on ed topics, and I like what you all have to say.

Will you please, at your convenience, check out the site and perhaps post under one of my brand new forums, or make a new forum, start a group for your state or issue close to your heart, or blog or rant or whatever?

This is my very first website and I'm terrified that no one will like me (lol, just like high school!). Really, though, I want to make a difference out there and I trust this group to provide sound information.

I'd appreciate suggestions, concerns, let me know what I'm missing...just give it to me straight! You guys rock!

Thanks ya'll and Happy Happy New Year!

MIT has used web 2.0 in a variety of ways from making all its course materials available for free to posting videos of lectures and speeches. The project I'm on (SAT Video contest @ www.BrainyFlix.com) is aimed at high school kids, and our tact is to get them to create content themselves... though admittedly, we had to *resort* to offering incentives like small cash prize and iTunes.

Dear colleagues,

We are working on a project on how we can utilize Web 2.0, not only Social networking, in foreign language teaching. Your contributions, suggestions, and ideas are highly appreciated. I will keep you informed about the progress. Please let me know if you are interested.

Kind regards.

Hello Everyone, I operate an online tutoring site: The Learning Pod

I hope you will take some time to visit. We have a number of tutors and mentors there. Many donate up to three hours per month in free tutoring. We look forward to seeing you there.

I hope to learn from this group.

Sincerely,

JT Crawford
