NING moves to Cha Ching $$$

I read this and immediately thought... What does this mean for all those who have created NING communities in education? I for one love Ning and all it's capabilities, but I've created so many niche Ning communities that I'm not willing to pay to sustain all of them. While I understand the business model and can appreciate the efforts necessary in this down economy, it really does create a wake up call to think about. We saw this earlier last year… Continue

"How I Spent My Summer" Will Inspire

Hey all,

Some of you may know through fb or twitter that my godson, Seamus, underwent brain surgery this past summer to remove a malignant tumor from his cerebellum. He is manfully struggling back from it and has to date regained much use of his right hand, tentative freedom from the walker, and his ability to speak. His "new" voice is a different one than his pre-surgery one, and its timbre belies the brilliant, sardonic wit he inherited from both his parents.

I invite… Continue

Nueva red para profesores de español

Hola a todos en Classroom 2.0. Les escribo para invitarles a una red que he creado para profesores de español como segunda lengua de todo el mundo.

Por ahora la red no tiene mucha información, porque el objetivo es que los miembros contribuyan su conocimiento, lo mismo que hacemos aquí. He invitado a mis colegas, pero es difícil que la gente participe al principio y por eso he decidido hacer un poco de publicidad y hablarles de mi red.

El objetivo principal es compartir… Continue

Classroom 2.0 on PalmBreezeCAFE

PalmBreezeCAFE is our school district's EdTech TV show. We broadcast on local cable and post on YouTube as well as other social video sharing sites. On last week's segment of PalmBreezeCAFE, I showed how to "roll your own" social network with Ning. Classroom 2.0 was used as an example. I've already received nice feedback from folks who are enjoying it. Feedback is welcome and If you have any ideas for future… Continue

Community Building for STEM Educators

How do you build community for educators spread across the big state of Texas? and do that with a technology staff of 2. The answer is of course web 2.0 apps that take care of the infrastructure maintenance and offer a simple way to support users. Unfortunately for us, it also means tying together multiple technologies which each have their own log in system. But at least many have that wonderful link "Forgot your password" to take care of that support issue.

The Ning… Continue

Just started a Ning!

In getting ready to teach another session of Classrooms for a Digital Age - an ed. tech philosophy course more or less, I revisited Ning looking for a cool way to incorporate it into the curriculum. I created http://classroomsfordigitalage.ning.com to get started and think that I may try to utilize this in my district to help connect the grade level and secondary content teachers with resource collaboration.

We'll see how it goes! Happy 2009 to everyone.

nings

A ning is easy to set up and is intuitive to use. It combines blog posts, discussion forums, text, photos and videos. It would be interesting to checkout the forums to gain extra information about a topic eg. moodle

Overwhelmed

I am having these huge desires to implement too many new web 2.0 tools and have no classroom of my own. It makes me miss being the classroom teacher. Here is what I am envisioning for the school 08-09.

Ning - My school is going to NING! That is so exciting! Our small group meetings, book clubs, grade level meetings are going into the group area of the NING. I am very interested in what the teachers area going to think about… Continue

My head's spinning but I'm loving it [Classroom escapades 03]

It's the end of week 3 of my new Ning-multimedia class.

There's so much happening at times that I can scarcely keep up. So where to start? Well here's some of the highlights and issues I'm thinking about.

The building of community

The students are posting incredibly supportive comments to each other. And it's not empty rhetoric. They're making connections to their own lives - making comparisons and offering support and… Continue
