Hi Alice,
I am doing some research regarding blogging platforms for teachers/students in our district. I read in a discussion form here (from way back in 2007) that you were using Edublogs. Are you still? Are you happy with it? Have you since started having students have their own blogs? Finally, have you found it slow or is it just me? Any insight you can provide would be most appreciated. Thank you! Kimberly

Hi Alice. I was wondering if you have students or educator friends who would be interested in participating in a nationwide SAT Vocab Video Contest @ MIT university. You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!

I am relatively new here. I am from Ghana and I'm just here to learn, contribute as well as link up with like-minded people who will be willing to share their experiences as well as help in spreading the concept of distance learning and adult education to Africa, which lags behind as far as education is concerned. My company has developed a television program called 'ADULTS IN EDUCATION' which is used in teaching,especially adults, how to read and write as well as general tips on how to take care of oneself. We also treat social issues as well. Television is still the widest means of disseminating information here in Ghana

Alice, if you're checking this email me at mpstaton@gmail.com

I need a favor after your session on Wed.... All you have to do is click a link and push play!

Yeah, and Brian Crosby worked in the bay area (my former home). We're all heading east, lol

Hi Alice,
I was a part of the Edublogger discussion today hosted by Vickie Davis at Elluminate. I was referred to your page as a great reference for elementary teachers by Steve. Just looking around to see what great things I can pick up!

Hi, Alice! At my work-in-progress web page I am building as part of professional development this year for my colleagues but out there for everyone on the ethernet, I have highlighted your class web page. IfIf you would rather I didn't, I understand and will remove it. I think it's great! I'm trying to show teachers possibilities for how to use class web pages. If you have any words of wisdom to add, that would be fine, too! I am enjoying your contributions to this group very much.

Thanks for introducing me to Classroom 2.0 and thank you for the invitation to be your friend.

Hi Alice, thanks for your recommendation!
Enjoy the day!

The biggest problem seems to be the blog issue (those of us who already have a blog, don't want to keep up a second one here), but hopefully that will be taken care of.

Alice, thank you for sending me the link. This is a new environment for me, but I'm already feeling at home.

I've admired your posts ont eh edublogs forum, so I'm glad to be friends. Remind me, what grade are your kids?

Hi Alice
You are my first friend here.
Thanks!

I use PBwiki for my household "page" with DH. I had my kids do a heritage project on PBwiki. But I've just discovered my district is blocking PBWiki (ARGH!), so we'll see how that goes in the future.

I use WikiSpaces for most of my presentations. It seemed easier to use. But when working with Webheads, I became more familiar with PB Wiki. I actually use pmWIKI for my professional website - it is so hard to decide which to use when. I even discovered that I had an old presentation on a wiki space that I had completely forgotten last week -- just happened to find a link.
