Loved the pizza, enjoyed meeting everyone and still horrified that I couldn't display all of my high-tech endeavors.So, since I insist there is a lesson in everything, my new words to live by are that no amount of technology can replace preparation.

So -- I had the best intentions to focus on Jing to try to develop some helpful podcasts on things I've learned in this course. Specifically, I've had trouble getting committee members to post a comment on our new PBS blog so I thought I would screencast the signing up process. But scrapblog is so cool I lost a day in it. I'm one of those people who loves crafts but never finishes so realy

Okay, so I'm aware that I'm doing things out of order but hey! at least I'm titling them so you can find things if you care. I learned a lot from this unit. There are so many things available to teachers if we have the time and energy to learn. My daughter is going into 9th grade and as I have learned things I've asked her what she knows. She may not know that Jing is a cool screen capturing

I have loved this class for its overview of new tools, but in order for me to really enjoy learning something I have to feel a certain proficiency for it and I'm afraid that my results with podcasting and social sites were just to get things done for the course. So I am electing Option 2 and that is to return to some tools and work more in-depth or at least build my familiarity.I LOVE the idea

I hope to put this week's lessons on photo-sharing to use ... look for posted pics of El Junque Rainforest, they could be tagged "tropical-paradise", "ziplining adventure" or "teacher missing".

I am a very impatient person. As soon as I get something new I want to use it, wear it, read it -- whatever. So I went ahead and started a wiki for my 3rd grade team. I'm team leader this year and I had a vague idea that it might be useful. Then all of a sudden it was useful! Did you ever put those questions out there for input from your team or faculty and then have to comb through a

The truth is this class is making me more ADHD than ever. Everytime I follow a link my mind goes in different directions. I'm sitting here convinced I don't have enough time to prepare for the next school year because there is SO much I've learned that I'd like to implement but I know it won't be possible once school starts.So, what's a wiki?

Dear Cheryl and Margie:First I have to apologize for being a dork ... my name is Susan but my site is called Sally Mander's Corner because our 3rd grade class mascot is a salamander and that's how I sign parent communications and my newsletter on teacherweb.

If this doesn't work, my question has been answered. If it does, my question is why did I have to download OurMedia, SpinXpres and Internet Archives?I am about to switch computers and now that everything is on this machine (even if it boots me off the internet after 20 minutes) I am worried about all the downloading and tweeking I have to do to get another machine ready.

I wish I had known in the beginning that Blogger required less intuitive approaches to posting podcasts.I had no problem with Audacity, but for 3rd graders, audio alone isn't going to cut it so I attempted video using Movie Maker and it

What did you learn? -- I learned to sign up to the Google Reader. I see the convenience of monitoring new posts to many blogs, but I see the inconvenience as well. Sometimes I don't want to subscribe to someone else's minutia.How will you use what you have learned?-- I think I'll title my posts more accurately so that others can sort the content form the mental meanderings. I will definitely

Hello everybody. I am happy to report that I have successfully signed up for the google reader and now have carpel tunnel syndrome from clicking in all of our blog addresses and need glasses after scanning the 109 new posts in reader.I like the idea of knowing when new information is posted ... obviously what our instructors are doing. But, when I'm reading a post that is when I want to comment

The first thing that is coming to mind today is that the more I learn, the less I know. Or is it the more I have to learn?So, going down the list. I have a blog -- check. I have read blog articles -- check. I thought I knew my reason for having a blog ... to enable kids to continue to communicate through the summer and post writing. But there are so many more applications at school and in the

Hello former 3rd graders and parents. This is the beginning of the "blog" I mentioned at Spring Conferences. I'm really excited about this thing I know very little about!What I do know is that it is interactive. Some students continue to email me over the summer and I post a summary on the class web page. With a blog, students can post directly. I had even thought we could share our writing here
