Tim where do you find the time? Another great program Tim found and one that I am really excited in Gizmo works like Skype but you can record the conversations. Plus the cost of computer to phone calls is cheap. IÂ’ve downloaded it and created an account jutecht12 weÂ’ll see how it works in China. Give me a call, just […]

I never knew I had such a following on my blog until that last post on NETS 2.0. The interesting thing for me is, I wrote that about the same time David Warlick was writing about Conversations and Will Richardson was writing about connective writing. Now IÂ’m trying to get my head around all of this. IÂ’m sure IÂ’m going […]

IÂ’m sitting in a Technology Curriculum meeting at the moment where we are looking at our student technology standards and benchmarks for our school. We, as most schools are looking at the NETS. The nets were last updated (as far as I can tell) in 2001. So, to move the NETS into the 2.0 world. I did a find and […]

After reading the Disruptive postings by John Pederson I had a thought. Anybody out there in the blogosphere wants to join the PD course IÂ’m running in Moodle? It would be great to have another disruptive factor in the class. No pressureÂ…just a collaborative thought. 😉

When I mean cross country IÂ’m not talking the U.S. IÂ’m talking across multiple countries. Yesterday, I stared a Professional Development course training teachers how to implement Moodle into their classroom. There are 27 teachers taking the course from 3 different countries. These teachers work at American international schools in China, Saudi Arabia, and the U.A.E. IÂ’m excited for this […]

Sorry Apple folks, this is a PC one! (I run both platforms, so no need for OS comments.?) I find the Desktop Sidebar a great tool to use as an aggregator. It docks itself on the right hand side of your screen so that you donÂ’t have to start a separate program when you want to view your RSS feeds. […]

I was talking with a High School teacher this weekend and she was asking me if I could help her connect two VCRÂ’s together so she could copy a tape. She said she asked a boy in her class to help her and he said: “How old do you think I am? I donÂ’t have a clue how to run […]

IÂ’ve been meaning to open up a bloglines account for awhile now but havenÂ’t found the time to actually do it. Then John Pederson goes and makes a nice little wiki about getting started with bloglines and blog reading. He recommends 20 edublogs to get newbie teachers into the edublogging world. I was honored to find The Thinking Stick among […]

Ok, so I had to get on the SuprGlu ban wagon. Thanks Tim for pointing out this great site. You can check out my SuprGlu page at http://jutecht.suprglu.com/. This is a great site that ‘gluesÂ’ all the RSS feeds you want to one web page. Putting all the information you want in one spot. My page keeps track of all […]

Thought IÂ’d just state up front that this is a reflection post and not a blogging post. Something Will Richardson has been discussing over on Weblogg-ed. I havenÂ’t written in a couple days, but have been spending a lot of time reading and reflecting on what other people have been posting and discussing. I find myself thinking a lot about […]
