I work for the University System and joined this Ning to find others in PDX to connect with. I haven't found a lot of ed tech in the teacher ed programs here and thought I was missing something...though in talking to people that seems to generally be the case here. Can I ask what specific program you teach in at Concordia?

I'm finally getting a chance to say hello! Such is the busy teacher's life or at least that of the teacher who is always curious and has their fingers in so many pies.

Thanks for linking me up to the 5 minds for the future discussion. I have so much to add there!!!! Ken and Connie, from reading their posts, seem like my twins. I will jump in this weekend for sure and say my piece......

I'm especially interested in technology so especially intersted in more discussions here and classroom 2.0 in general. I think of all the disciplines, my own, 2nd language acquisition , EFL , has the greatest debt to one day be owed to technology. So many possibilities and so few really digging and turning the soil. I hope to be one of them who grows some roots here and issues some fruit.

One thing I find with technology. Too often it is a "new' thing and taught passively. I really feel technology must be learnt through the backdoor, as young kids learn it. Give them a goal elsewhere and the technological learning comes with it. Use is letting loose......

Look forward to some fruitful discussions. Take a look at my own community, made for the moment of just those using my materials. (I am an avid collector and materials designer for ELL. ) http://eflclassroom.ning.com

Thanks for inviting me in. Looked at your blog and read the Story Centered curric. article. Interesting. Have your heard about 21st century school initiative? Sounds like your article, the need to make learning real. Also, just viewed the Far(y) Use Tale. Well done!!!!!!! All good stuff. Stay cool!

Thank you for inviting me to be your friend. I am an elementary teacher and I teach in Los Angeles. Recently I am trying to be an online instructor and I am glad that I know you because I think I'll have some questions to ask.
I am amazed that you have started your research in preschool. That is my philosophy when it comes to technology. We need to start from young age to show that technology can be used to teach and learn safely.

Thanks for the invite. We have some common links through Vancouver, WA (the OTHER Vancouver) ... but for now I have a lot to learn about formating and presenting material for Classroom 2.0 ... Thanks for all the technology links. I'll be digging around in your site (page) ...
Best,
Hilding

I can't believe there is another Washingtonian online too. Hope to meet up with you some day since we both live in the same state. I look forward to getting my PhD so that I can be a professor in the area of technology literacy. I think there is a real natural pairing with the two.
Great to meet you.
Peggy

Wow, I'm finally finding time to play a bit. The technology has been exploding all around me this year. We opened up two Podcasting studios in the college, bought some land in Second Life, and introduced a new multimedia course. It's been fun, but I am glad to have a bit of time to relax.
My husband and I are headed to Portland, OR for a week on the beach and then are going to Traverse City to float in the boat....
What have you been up to?
