Hi Randy. I was wondering if any of your students would be interested in participating in a nationwide SAT Vocab Video Contest @ MIT university. If not, perhaps you have some other educator contacts you could direct me to. You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!
So the Ning thing is really cool! I joined the Classroom 2.0 one the other day in our meeting and I've already joined up with a huge network of fourth grade teachers that are working on a colloborative writing blog for our classes. Have your heard anything about Moodle?
Hi Randy, great! I like this hobby as well. Please join my group DigiSkills if you like.

About Me
I am an instructional technology specialist in Birdville ISD, northeast of Fort Worth, Texas. I primarily work with secondary teachers, although I train and support all of the district's campus webmasters, as well. I am currently leading a project to utilize Web 2.0 technologies in the district's classrooms, and I am amazed at the work that teachers, students, and administrators are doing in just a few months.
You all have really given me some great information in the past, so I'm going to the well yet again! Our district is faced with the urgent need to create a document defining our expectations for student and teacher use of the read/write web. If you have any suggestions or experiences to share, please do so here or on my other blog. Thank you, again!
If any of you have the time, I'd appreciate you visiting my blog and responding to my survey question about your favorite five Web 2.0 applications for teachers/students. Thanks, in advance!
I'm trying to compile a list of some outstanding teacher blogs and/or wikis. This will allow me to show teachers actual examples of the powerful effect these resources can have in elevating student writing, developing a sense of community, and fostering collaboration. If you have any to add to the list, please pass them along! Thanks in advance!
Check out our series of free live workshops around the United States on the use of Web 2.0 technologies in education. Coming up: Sacramento, New York, and Boston. More details and information here.
