Since my trip to EduCon and SLA, I haven’t been able to sit still. I am
filled with an energy I can’t quite describe. This week alone, I’ve
worked on/helped with/logged into/twittered with/discovered…..
- our history teacher’s project where students research, upload powerpoint to Voice Thread, embed on a wiki with rest of the research, and share
- interesting new voices online-more people to follow on Twitter and more blogs to read
- a new presentation for our juniors and seniors about their online presence and how to create a positive one
- Mr.Mayo’s students’ sites–powerful
- Be Very Afraid, thanks to David Warlick.
- conversations
with my "skeptic," whom I took to EduCon. He has changed his American
History class as of today. And I enjoy his challenging questions; they
make me think - the fourth grade Voice Threads with Kim Cofino’s group…we are commenting away
- questions from a language teacher about wikis
- online PD with Robin Ellis and Darren Draper
- Tweets to new found friends that I can now picture
- my new computer–more memory and lighter:)
- twitter with my colleague Jennifer (jclarkevans)
I
am so grateful for the opportunity to learn and share. Mostly it was
the opportunity to hear new voices, re-focus my own goals, and plan for
this semester in a meaningful way.
Connections.
I know exactly how you feel! That’s how I felt after the Learning 2.0 conference in September – so much fun, so much learning, so much to do :)
It is so great to meet up with people face to face. I am looking forward to New Zealand’s Learning at School conference 19-22 February. I am trying to get a live blogging tool http://www.coveritlive.com/ embedded in my blog so that I can share what I am doing but there are a ‘few technical issues’ to work through!
