Just spent the last hour wondering around the edublog world via my bloglines account getting caught up on everything I missed while unwired for two weeks. I was actually planning on doing some commenting on great articles that inspired me, but didnÂ’t find any. ThatÂ’s not to say there are not great conversations going on, just none that were calling […]
On the plane from Perth to Singapore and had some random thoughts that I wanted to write down. So I’ve grabbed my portable keyboard and Palm T5 to do a little thinking. Just a bunch of random thoughts here so feel free to browse. Personal Content: I just stood up to have a stretch and looked around me at the […]
After a 14 hour non eventful flight (which is a good thing) home from Australia, I wake up this morning excited to upgrade to WordPress 2.0. But before doing so, I read a couple of my favorites including John Pederson. WOW, do I have a lot of work to do. The Thinking Stick is in perpetual beta mode, and hopefully […]
Only a couple days left to enjoy my holiday in Australia. I have enjoyed spending time with our friends here in Perth. My favorite part of any vacation is just having the time to think, reflect, and read while visiting a wonderful part of the world. The time away from my computer and ‘connected worldÂ’ has been difficultÂ…but needed. I […]
Well IÂ’m off to Perth, Australia for the Holiday season, it was 33c there todayÂ…looking forward to the warm weather. Just wanted to send a happy holiday greeting to everyone. I canÂ’t believe how many people read my babbling on about education and technology, and google analytics gives me this cool map of where you all are reading from. IÂ’m […]
There has been a lot going on with the whole wikipedia thing. Will and Christopher are just two of many who have a thought on the whole situation. Update: Miguel Guhlin One good thing that has come out of this is the discussions that IÂ’ve been hearing in the hallways and in the staff room. Teachers who never paid attention […]
IÂ’ve been doing some thinking lately about some of the mind sets we have to help teachers get past in order to move into the 2.0 world. One thing thatÂ’s been on my mind lately is the way computers were used 10 years ago and the way they could/should be used today. 10 years ago technology in schools was mainly […]
There is no better way to know what you should be reading then to take a glance at this years Edublog Awards short list. Congratulations to those of you that made the list! Many names I recognize and others I had no idea existed. ItÂ’s a great way to get your bloglines account and your podcasting feeds up-to-date.
OK, so here is a little frustration for you. There are all these technology people writing books about digital information, the digital age, and the use of the internet and technology, do you think I can find one book IÂ’m looking for in e-reader format or just in e-book format? Not a one! So here is a call out to […]
OK, IÂ’m starting to get really frustrated that I canÂ’t visit blogs at blogspot. I am in the middle of reading Anne DavisÂ’s EduBlog Insighst and she links to two other blogs, both at blogspot.com. Is there anyway I can get the rss feeds from others out of their bloglines account? If I had the rss feed address I could […]
