This is the most useful room I've ever seen in web sites. It will be good chance for us to share our teaching experience...

Any recommendations for master's programs in Education Technology?

FYI - I just noticed a new elementary catalog from School Specialty. It's a very interesting approach, matching class products with the different frameworks and funding sources. http://www.schoolspecialty.com/instructional-materials.jsp

Hello, have a website called MEET ME AT THE CORNER, Virtual Field Trips for Kids (www.meetmeatthecorner.org) . I am very interested in using technology in the classroom and developing a website that is helpful to the classroom teacher.

Dear colleagues and friends,

I was just wondering if you had some questionnaire/checklist to obtain data on foreign language teachers' perceptions on the use of Web2.0 tools. I would like to collect data on this topic. The results will be shared here, of course.

Many thanks for your assistance and cooperation in advance.

I think this group is small because professional development for teachers is in such a sorry state. Teachers want content-specific professional development targeted to their specific needs. The money is not out there for that. So, unfortunately, we carve out our learning desperately and or, sadly, not at all.

I agree! I was at the American Council for Teaching Foreign Languages conference this weekend and there was hardly any mention of how to teach Spanish for Native/Heritage speakers. It is a huge and quickly growing area, especially in California, and there is no teacher training. They assume that if you can teach Spanish as a foreign language then you can teach heritage speakers. They are completely different beasts. I would have gotten more out of preparation for English teachers. Anyone know where I can get help?

THanks,
Rachel
