What occupies me lately? I just wrote a book with coauthor Suzie Boss titled "Reinventing Project-Based Learning: Your Field Guide to Real-World Projects in the Digital Age"
We are excited about the promise of pbl and professional learning in the web 2.0 era, where important learning functions (collaboration, learning anywhere, many more) are made possible through a myriad of new and emerging tools.
The book profiles teachers and classrooms from around the globe- each point we make is illustrated with a story of teachers and learners who are walking the walk and accomplishing great things.

Reinventing... all over the Web
Hi,
Suzie Boss and I wrote a book but I won't be shilling here! What we've found in the process of writing is that we're part of a larger conversation around the learning functions of digital tools. We're especially interested in project-based learning. Please consider joining the community of interest forming around "reinventing" the learning experience in these different environments:

- I am looking for a class that is interesting in a skype long distance debate with my class this semester. I teach 8th grade U.S. History. Last year we debated against Terry Parent's class out of Hollywood, California. The topic was Democratic Republicans vs. Federalists. I would like to repeat this event yearly. Perhaps even more than once a year. Anyone interested...especially a class in a time zone that is closer to us, please email me at susan.gorman@gcisd.net. I am in Central Time Zone. The time zone is important to consider because working with the class in California (I am in Texas) was a "juggle." Although, it was worth all of the effort.
Can you help with this...can't find anyone interested?
Regards,
Susan

Gail Mitchell said… - HI Jane
I am new to Classroom 2.0
I am really interested in joining the Elluminate sessions. I have checked that my computer is set up- I think but I have as yet not been able to join a session because of the time differences ( I am in Australia ).
I want to try on the weekend. I have had a look at all the tools and clicked here and there but I am not sure how to go about participating.
Can you help or give me some guidelines?
Thanks
Gail

I am new to Classroom 2.0 and need some help. As a former Oregonian, you seemed to be a good person to contact. I teach Microcomputer Applications at a small Liberal Arts College in Northern Vermont. My desire is to revise the course making it web2.0 based. Can you direct me to some resources?
Thank you

- Thanks for the input. We are looking at a 25,000 grant that would support technology for a team of 4 of us. We have discussed net books for blogging and research, flip cameras, and ipod touch for creative purposes. I would like them to keep journals of their work.
the really cool thing is 1/2 of the kids are ESL newcomers, mostly Spanish, and the other half are taking Spanish classes. We think it would be awesome for the ESL to use their English to develop their language skills. and the other half to use their Spanish... We also want to set it up so that kids could take equipment home so that they can teach muligenerationally and everybody wins. I would appreciate any ideas as we are writing this grant now and really need input. thanks.
