- If we don't grab the future, the future will grab us.... so lets work together!
I am teaching English and IT in a vocational school, partly with teenagers, partly with adults. I have been using digital media and the internet in classroom since the beginning of "digital age" - which was???? -- and have also been working as a teacher's trainer for multimedia, moodle and ePortfolio which is my latest project in education. I generally find it much easier to work with students than with colleagues as there is still a long way to go before we reach digital literacy .... but a lot of teachers are "on the move" now so they will hopefully catch up a bit on the digital native students... and I'm trying to help them on their way to 21st century education.. The biggest problem often is administration which is slow in adopting and supporting these efforts...
Recently I have worked in a European Project "MOSEP" - More self-esteem with your EPortfolio where we did the testing phase in Germany with a group of teachers. You can find the materials in a WIKI and if you are interested in the project, just drop me a line...
www.mosep.org - you will also find a blog entry on this project.

Ja, das ist vielleicht eben auch der Knackpunkt bei all diesen Social Networks, dass immer die selben Leute networken. Wie dem auch sein, ich freue mich, wieder mal was von dir zu hören. wir sind derzeit in der Einführungsphase von Mahara - unendlich vielArbeit!

Good to hear from you. However we cannot have you having doubts about 3D virtual worlds and language teaching :-).
After all my guess is that you will be invited to join a European project experimenting with this after the holidays, if I get my way.
In the meantime look for ideas and links on this part of my site:

BTW Just noticed that the SLANGUAGES 2008 Conference presentations are no longer available. Will contact them.
Gute Ferien! Ton
To change your CR2.0 theme, click on "My Page" on the links at the top. In that page there is some small text under your photo and name that says "change photo or theme". It's easy to miss. We share a fun and functional wordpress theme. I like your content too. Peace, Mike
