There was a point this summer not long after NECC that I started wondering if I was doing the right thing. Are we barking up the wrong tree? It hit me as I sat in the car one day looking at a bunch of people waiting at a bus stop. As I sat at the red light I starting thinking […]

Can’t believe it’s been 10 days since I posted a blog entry. It’s been good though…spent 3 days in San Diego visiting my sister-in-law and time with family and friends over the other days has made it worth being disconnected. The time I have been online has been focused on the graduate course I’m teaching for Plymouth State University. The […]
So Yesterday I get done writing about how society and our use of networks and technology is why school need to change and headed out to do some shopping and get some pictures printed off for family and friends.

I’ve been taking it easy this week before my graduate course starts next week for Plymouth State University. It’s my first time teaching a graduate level course and I’m […]
As I sit here in the airport waiting for my flight to leave, I’m reflecting on “what just happened?†I’ve been thinking about my experience at this year’s conference compared to last years.

Presenter: Brett Hinton an Open Source Content Management System (CMS) You can set Drupal to allow sign up without a e-mail….that’s a good thing for schools who do not have student e-mail accounts. Drupal allows you to have a wiki, blog, podcasts all in one CMS system. I really like drupal but need to spend some more time setting it […]
