One of Those Days
Oh. My. Gosh. I got yelled at by my 3 year old for using the other G word today, as well I should have. Nothing like a preschooler to shape up my language, right? I had one of those completely-new-situation after completely-new-situation days where I was always brand new at every thing I did and NEVER felt [...]How Did THIS Happen?
A nice person emailed me this morning to let me know that I’m on this list of “100 Helpful Websites for New Teachers” - all I could think of was how funny that is now that I’m doing NO promotion of my site! Anyway, I have no knowledge of the site which posted this other [...]Homework Show & Tell
Yet again I’m sharing my homework……….yawn. This assignment is a list of about 45 terms used in reading instruction (examples provided by yours truly) and is for my Developmental Reading grad course at UW-Stout as part of my MSEd program as well as my reading licensure program. Why do you care? Well, maybe you’re interested in reading instruction……..or [...]Autism Program - Day 2: Links of Interest
A few links mentioned in the program today that some of you might find helpful - I haven’t been able to explore them yet, but plan to as soon as I get 5 free minutes! AutismInspirationTasksGaloreTinsnips And then one I’m throwing in because I kept forgetting to post about it before: AutismSpeaks Ning I’m hoping I’ll get a chance [...]Autism Program - Day 1: Learning With Parents
I’m over-my-head busy this week with 2 grad classes and my full days of attending the Autism Spectrum Disorders Certificate Program (I’m too busy to link it - if you’re interested, read my last post!). However, I’ve gotten so much great information and my to-read list from the speakers is becoming more than one page, [...]kolson's Page

My students have been researching, writing a blog and creating podcast about digital citizenship. Some the sites they have really enjoyed are iKeep Safe http://www.ikeepsafe.org/ and NetSmartz http://www.netsmartz.org/index.aspx. Both of these sit...
LOVE how you're using Yammer, Greg. I've been struggling with the best tool to manage and share the constant flow of information in an organization. Blogs can be a little overkill for some, email is not open enough, etc. Never really thought of us...
Here are some examples of how we take advantage of collaboration tools in our day-to-day operations as a software company. This is pretty typical for the industry.
Communication :
1. Yammer : Like twitter, this is a very powerful micro-blogging ...
I would also check out "Grown Up Digital" by Don Tapscott. It covers many areas where these types of tools are permeating throughout the world as the so-called "Net Generation" enters more and more into the workforce.

Jack said… - Hi Kolson. I was wondering if you and your students would be interested in participating in a nationwide SAT Vocab Video Contest @ MIT university. If not, perhaps you have some educator contacts you could direct me to. You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!

- Hi. I thought I saw a comment from you about using the teacher's gmail account and adding + and the student's name in order for them to have access. Of course I couldn't find the comment again. At any rate, if memory serves, you said you'd give more info/help on this. So if you can, I'd like a little more info when you get a chance.
Thanks.

Remona Estep said… - Dear Kolson,
I am doing an ethnography for a master's class and am having trouble coming up with answers to questions like what rules govenrn behavior in CR20 and how are decisions made. I realize those are broad categories to address, but any help that you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

I'm trying to customize my page, but when I click on a template and save nothing changes. Do you have any ideas?

I started a page in January for my staff. We are young at this type of thing. I had most of the staff invited, a couple of pictures and one video. It was all there last month but has disappeared except for two staff members. Any ideas why?
