Week in Review - August 22, 2008

Another rather disconnected list of worthy findings from the week - for my thoughts on several articles, check out my recent posts………. Glencoe eSolutions - WebKey Express This just blows my mind - I had been looking for an online keyboarding solution like this for over a YEAR and NOW I find one? Well, hopefully it will [...]

That’s What He Said

Ok, so I just wrote about why I have the ability to be my own boss and have written before about how I don’t seem to fit in a cubicle/bureaucracy very well………. Anyway, while reading my idol’s (Peter Shankman, but you already knew that) blog this morning, this caught my eye and I realized I don’t [...]

Draw Your Own Conclusions

From an article in today’s New York Times - “Welcome Freshman. Have an Ipod” by Jonathan D. Glater - in which the idea of providing college students with iPods and iPhones is discussed: Robert S. Summers, who has taught at Cornell Law School for about 40 years, announced this week — in a detailed, footnoted memorandum [...]

All But the Year

Just when I thought I found my generational label and was officially a First Global, I got all confused again reading the August 25th issue of BusinessWeek with all of the Gen X and Gen Y talk and no accurate labels as to what they MEAN. But, in my 10-second research on this, I came across [...]

Investigating Ning to replace our current e-mail based listservs. Will need an email sent to members for all discussions posted on the forum (not just the ones I reply to or start). Can Ning generate such a email? Thanks in advance...

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.

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.

Help! I had several replies to my introduction in my email and many were deleted before I could read them.. How do I find them without the email notifications.

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

Hi Kate,
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?

Hey Kate

I did my Master's through Nova Southeastern in Ft. Lauderdale. They have an EdTech one, but mine was Teaching and Learning/K12 Technology Integration. I learned a lot, but had to do my own searching to supplement the tech integration part.

Looking forward to "working" with you as a host/greeter :)
