Hi,

I am a Primary and Early Years Coordinator at Beaconhouse School System Steel Town campus. We collaborate with different educational forums to enhance our students learning. I'd love to increase student communication and collaboration through email, video conferencing, etc. I hope I will get opportunities and get ideas to use technology to make my students independent learners and to suppot my teachers.

Warm Regards,

Samina Naz

Hello Classroom 2.0 Members,

I'm a grad student at University of Maryland University College working towards a masters in eLearning and Distance Education, and we are studying communities of practice. I've got a short paper to write and I chose Classroom 2.0 for my subject. I've spent the past two days perusing the site to gain as much insight as I can. I saw that in 2008 Turadg Aleahmad and his associate were working on a Classroom 2.0 research paper. I searched high and low for that paper with no luck. Does anyone have a completed copy of it that they could send me. I'm also looking for some analysis data such as quantitative data like level of participation (messages posted and read per person/per day/per topic) and volume of messaging, . And if there is anything else you can tell me about how Classroom 2.0 has enabled you to learn and gain knowledge.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Gail Wingate

Hi everyone,

I'm Stephanie, and I'm excited to be participating in conversations about ed-tech and gamification. I'm working with a startup called Classcraft that's a free, browser-based role-playing game that you can overlay onto any lesson plan, subject, and grade level.

I'm looking forward to chatting with all of you! Feel free to get in touch or ask any questions. :)

Hi.

I am just getting back into the teaching profession after a 9 year break (kids). Wow have things changed. Just taking a course to reactivate my certificate for Secondary English and El Ed.

Hoping it gets easier as I go!

Hi Kim. 9 years may seem like a lot, but I am coming back to it after many more than that. If you happen to find communities for 6-12 ELA can you let me know? There is a lot here and other education networks. i can see how this will help. i am just foraging through it all.

I know what you mean about hoping it gets easier. :-)
