Hi, Elementary Folks!
I am a longtime member of CR 2.0 with a background in secondary language arts. I am currently working on a degree in reading education/literacy studies. A fellow student and I are interested in knowing more about the availab...
This is a fantastic idea! I wish I had used this approach during my short teaching stint this summer. My students stimulated a lot of ideas that are still coalescing in my mind.
Hi Marilyn! So happy to "meet" you! You've piqued my interest: what is the "Tech It Out!" quiz? Can you share?
I just finished teaching a summer course on technology integration for preservice teachers. My students -- the hyper-plugged-in generat...
Hi, Greg. First off, I don't think you need a blog to have a vital and fruitful PLN. When framed in terms of the "push/pull" web, networks like Classroom 2.0 may be all you need to access ("pull") and share ("push") information. There is even a bl...

So to that end, I have been making readerly comments on each pre-service teacher's blog, and I am encouraging the class to follow, read, and comment on each others' blogs.
And now, to go a step furt...
Wikispaces' offer to educators is the real deal, and they quickly respond to your inquiry for an ad-free site. I was very pleased when they honored my request for an ad-free site, and I was just a grad student at the time (not a K-12 teacher).

This discussion asks a similar question - and includes a link to a draft Web 2.0 publishing policy. I have sent the link on to my tech director as I think our district needs to visit this topic soon. (http://www.classroom20.com/forum/topics/school...
Thanks for the heads up! It appears our local school board is undertaking a review of web publishing policy. I look forward to reading and sharing the resources you post.

- About Me
- I am a secondary language arts teacher currently on an extended leave from the classroom. In May 2008 I completed a master's degree in the field of instructional technology at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, but my education will never be complete. I have two young children who remind me of that fact nearly every day!
My purpose in being here is to simply stay connected to a community of learners. How can I safely, ethically, and creatively infuse technology into my practice as a teacher/learner, parent, and citizen?
I am most passionate about the field of media education, especially understanding how adolescents use media outside the confines of the traditional classroom. How might educators tap into this in ways that add relevance and rigor to our course content and, at the same time, teach young people to engage more critically and responsibly with all forms of new and electronic media?
Quote of the Moment
I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I live.
George Bernard Shaw

Many teachers shy away from contemporary music. Why? It could be because their own teachers did the same.

With your interest in Instructional Technology, I recommend you take a look at Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service. Here’s a public class recording conducted by Nellie Deutsch on Technology Integration.

- Jennifer,
I was thinking more of models of the use(s) of digital media and critical and responsible engagement with such media.
Cheers

- Love your passion - clue me in, as someone keen to see media use and understanding develop at our College, and to see the development of critical and responsible engagement - but also as someone who won't be a driver of this. I'd like to get some pictures of what growth and success in this realm would look like. Is there a relevant forum here, or there, or...

- No problem, use away. (Standard royalty fees of course!)

- Sure,
The ning is private, just because its our curriculum digital learning exploration space for our own staff to ponder and reflect, fins and share wisdom. Having said that, it's just a bare bones ning - I've invited all our staff sub-committee to join and share on forums related to our curriculum questions. I've created three of the forums, but at least one other has been created. In the nature of the structure, this can be branched out to other discussions, forums and subgroups, as the mood takes the membership.
The reason for starting it is partly because of the discussion here on Faculty Meetings, and some comments exchanged between Dennis O'Conner and me about online learning. There are many things our group need to tackle - and to make it wieldy the admin wanted us to subdivide.
I, on the other hand, didn't want to wind up on 5 subcommittees, nor miss out on the transaction in 4 groups if we met simultaneously. It seemed to me to be great use of this framework to allow the possibility of a large number of people being in discussion, and yet, only one person is able to talk at a time, and everybody who has something to contribute can. The nightmare of scheduling and prioritising meetings can be reduced.
We started the process as a f2f group, and we'll regather, but the intermediate chats can be carried out asynchronously, fitted better to our individual schedules, and be wider ranging that a large disparate group.
(A minor sub-point, but relevant: for me a- partially deaf, I'm not as exhausted trying to filter out signal conversation from noise. In a large group with lots of chat, I'm cut out.)

most teachers have been coming up with their own permissions slips for their blogs and or wikis
the link for my school's wiki is actually a private site but i would love to invite you if you want- it is in its infant stages now though-
and I too thought social networking was just a dating network- i have been pleasantly surprised
