  • . Further, as discussed immediately below, it misconstrues the notion of the "primary object" of a conspiracy.
  • (3) We agree with defendants that for purposes of the statute of limitations, a conspiracy terminates upon the completion of its primary object; acts committed subsequent to such completion cannot be deemed overt acts in the furtherance of the conspiracy. (People v. Zamora (1976) 18 Cal.3d 538, 554, fn. 12, 560 [134 Cal. Rptr. 784, 557 P.2d 75]

  • use it erroneously equates "primary object of a conspiracy" with the subjective ultimate goals of the conspirators. On the contrary, a close reading of Zamora makes clear that the term "primary object" has a somewhat technical rather than ordinary meaning; it refers to the substantive offense which the conspirators agree to commit. (ibid.)
  • Thus, in order to determine when the three conspiracies terminated, the court looked to the time when the substantive offense underlying each conspiracy was completed. (id., at p. 554, fn. 12.) The court found that the central object of the conspiracy to commit grand theft was the 390*390 obtaining of insurance proceeds under false pretenses; hence, such conspiracy terminated upon the receipt of the last payment. (id., at pp. 555, 560.)

The remaining defendants argued that the persons granted immunity could not be counted as coconspirators for purposes of determining whether a conspiracy had been committed. (8) The

  • As in Gilbert, the grant of immunity to Ms. Hoover is not inconsistent with her culpability as a coconspirator. Her acts in furtherance of the conspiracy may therefore be considered in establishing the culpability of her fellow coconspirators. (See, also, People v. Hadden (1947) 79 Cal. App.2d 635 [180 P.2d 3

  • Supposing learning is social and comes largely from of our experience of participating in daily life? it was this thought that formed the basis of a significant rethinking of learning theory in the late 1980s and early 1990s by two researchers from very different disciplines - Jean Lave and Etienne Wenger. Their model of situated learning proposed that learning involved a process of engagement in a 'community of practice'. 
  • When looking closely at everyday activity, she has argued, it is clear that 'learning is ubiquitous in ongoing activity, though often unrecognized as such' (Lave 1993: 5).
  • Communities of practice are formed by people who engage in a process of collective learning in a shared domain of human endeavour: a tribe learning to survive, a band of artists seeking new forms of expression, a group of engineers working on similar problems, a clique of pupils defining their identity in the school, a network of surgeons exploring novel techniques, a gathering of first-time managers helping each other cope. in a nutshell: Communities of practice are groups of people who share a concern or a passion for something they do and learn how to do it better as they interact regularly. (Wenger circa 2007)
  • ...18 more annotations...
  • Over time, this collective learning results in practices that reflect both the pursuit of our enterprises and the attendant social relations. These practices are thus the property of a kind of community created over time by the sustained pursuit of a shared enterprise. it makes sense, therefore to call these kinds of communities communities of practice. (Wenger 1998: 45)
  • The characteristics of communities of practice According to Etienne Wenger (c 2007), three elements are crucial in distinguishing a community of practice from other groups and communities: The domain. A community of practice is is something more than a club of friends or a network of connections between people. 'it has an identity defined by a shared domain of interest. Membership therefore implies a commitment to the domain, and therefore a shared competence that distinguishes members from other people' (op. cit.). The community. 'in pursuing their interest in their domain, members engage in joint activities and discussions, help each other, and share information. They build relationships that enable them to learn from each other' (op. cit.). The practice. 'Members of a community of practice are practitioners. They develop a shared repertoire of resources: experiences, stories, tools, ways of addressing recurring problems—in short a shared practice. This takes time and sustained interaction' (op. cit.).
  • The fact that they are organizing around some particular area of knowledge and activity gives members a sense of joint enterprise and identity. For a community of practice to function it needs to generate and appropriate a shared repertoire of ideas, commitments and memories. it also needs to develop various resources such as tools, documents, routines, vocabulary and symbols that in some way carry the accumulated knowledge of the community.
  • The interactions involved, and the ability to undertake larger or more complex activities and projects though cooperation, bind people together and help to facilitate relationship and trust
  • Rather than looking to learning as the acquisition of certain forms of knowledge, Jean Lave and Etienne Wenger have tried to place it in social relationships – situations of co-participation.
  • It not so much that learners acquIre structures or models to understand the world, but they partIcIpate In frameworks that that have structure. LearnIng Involves partIcIpatIon In a communIty of practIce. And that partIcIpatIon 'refers not just to local events of engagement In certaIn actIvItIes wIth certaIn people, but to a more encompassIng process of beIng actIve partIcIpants In the practIces of socIal communItIes and constructIng IdentItIes In relatIon to these communItIes' (Wenger 1999: 4).
  • InItIally people have to joIn communItIes and learn at the perIphery. The thIngs they are Involved In, the tasks they do may be less key to the communIty than others.
  • Learning is, thus, not seen as the acquisition of knowledge by individuals so much as a process of social participation. The nature of the situation impacts significantly on the process.
  • What is more, and in contrast with learning as internalization, ‘learning as increasing participation in communities of practice concerns the whole person acting in the world’ (Lave and Wenger 1991: 49). The focus is on the ways in which learning is ‘an evolving, continuously renewed set of relations’ (ibid.: 50). in other words, this is a relational view of the person and learning (see the discussion of selfhood).
  • 'the purpose is not to learn from talk as a substitute for legitimate peripheral participation; it is to learn to talk as a key to legitimate peripheral participation'. This orientation has the definite advantage of drawing attention to the need to understand knowledge and learning in context. However, situated learning depends on two claims: it makes no sense to talk of knowledge that is decontextualized, abstract or general. New knowledge and learning are properly conceived as being located in communities of practice (Tennant 1997: 77).
  • There is a risk, as Jean Lave and Etienne Wenger acknowledge, of romanticizing communities of practice.
  • 'In theIr eagerness to debunk testIng, formal educatIon and formal accredItatIon, they do not analyse how theIr omIssIon [of a range of questIons and Issues] affects power relatIons, access, publIc knowledge and publIc accountabIlIty' (Tennant 1997: 79).
  • Perhaps the most helpful of these explorations is that of Barbara Rogoff and her colleagues (2001). They examine the work of an innovative school in Salt Lake City and how teachers, students and parents were able to work together to develop an approach to schooling based around the principle that learning 'occurs through interested participation with other learners'.
  • Learning is in the relationships between people. As McDermott (in Murphy 1999:17) puts it: Learning traditionally gets measured as on the assumption that it is a possession of individuals that can be found inside their heads… [Here] learning is in the relationships between people. Learning is in the conditions that bring people together and organize a point of contact that allows for particular pieces of information to take on a relevance; without the points of contact, without the system of relevancies, there is not learning, and there is little memory. Learning does not belong to individual persons, but to the various conversations of which they are a part.
  • One of the implications for schools, as Barbara Rogoff and her colleagues suggest is that they must prioritize 'instruction that builds on children's interests in a collaborative way'. Such schools need also to be places where 'learning activities are planned by children as well as adults, and where parents and teachers not only foster children's learning but also learn from their own involvement with children' (2001: 3). Their example in this area have particular force as they are derived from actual school practice.
  • learning involves a deepening process of participation in a community of practice
  • Acknowledging that communities of practice affect performance is important in part because of their potential to overcome the inherent problems of a slow-moving traditional hierarchy in a fast-moving virtual economy. Communities also appear to be an effective way for organizations to handle unstructured problems and to share knowledge outside of the traditional structural boundaries. in addition, the community concept is acknowledged to be a means of developing and maintaining long-term organizational memory. These outcomes are an important, yet often unrecognized, supplement to the value that individual members of a community obtain in the form of enriched learning and higher motivation to apply what they learn. (Lesser and Storck 2001)
  • Educators need to reflect on their understanding of what constitutes knowledge and practice. Perhaps one of the most important things to grasp here is the extent to which education involves informed and committed action.

    As a teacher, using an RSS reader can help you stay informed and up to date on new information related to your content area and practice. People often ask me how i find so much information about new technology resources, the answer is simple, i scan roughly 600 updates in my RSS reader every day. Obviously you don't have to subscribe to as many websites as i do to stay informed, but my RSS addiction does demonstrate how much time a person can save and how much information a person can find by using an RSS reader. if i didn't use an RSS reader there is no way that i could find so much information in a couple of hours each day. (As a side note, i'm going camping for six days without internet access when i get back, i'll have thousands of items to scan through). if you maintain a blog or website for your classroom, having your students use RSS readers is a good way to keep them informed of new information you've posted. For teachers that address current events in their curriculum, having students use RSS readers is a good way for them to track developments in news stories.

  • creation, communication and participation playing key roles
  • The breaking down of barriers has led to many of the movements and issues we see on today's internet. File-sharing, for example, evolves not of a sudden criminality among today's youth but rather in their pervasive belief that information is something meant to be shared. This belief is manifest in such things as free and open-source software, Creative Commons licenses for content, and open access to scholarly and other works. Sharing content is not considered unethical; indeed, the hoarding of content is viewed as antisocial [9]. And open content is viewed not merely as nice to have but essential for the creation of the sort of learning network described by Siemens [10].
  • "Enter Web 2.0, a vision of the Web in which information is broken up into "microcontent" units that can be distributed over dozens of domains. The Web of documents has morphed into a Web of data. We are no longer just looking to the same old sources for information. Now we're looking to a new set of tools to aggregate and remix microcontent in new and useful ways"
  • Web 2.0 is not a technological revolution, it is a social revolution.
  • It also begIns to look lIke a personal portfolIo tool [18]. The Idea here Is that students wIll have theIr own personal place to create and showcase theIr own work. Some e-portfolIo applIcatIons, such as ELGG, have already been created. IMS Global as put together an e-portfolIo specIfIcatIon [19]. "The portfolIo can provIde an opportunIty to demonstrate one's abIlIty to collect, organIze, Interpret and reflect on documents and sources of InformatIon. It Is also a tool for contInuIng professIonal development, encouragIng IndIvIduals to take responsIbIlIty for and demonstrate the results of theIr own learnIng" [20].

      Also a place to receive and give feedback. i believe that one of the things that learners need to have to be prepared for learning in this space (social media or web 2.0) is the ability to evaluate, to give good feedback. Additionally, to be able to receive feedback constructively.
  • In the world of e-learnIng, the closest thIng to a socIal network Is a communIty of practIce, artIculated and promoted by people such as EtIenne Wenger In the 1990s. AccordIng to Wenger, a communIty of practIce Is characterIzed by "a shared domaIn of Interest" where "members Interact and learn together" and "develop a shared repertoIre of resources."
  • Yahoo! Groups
  • Blogging is very different from traditionally assigned learning content. it is much less formal. it is written from a personal point of view, in a personal voice. Students' blog posts are often about something from their own range of interests, rather than on a course topic or assigned project. More importantly, what happens when students blog, and read reach others' blogs, is that a network of interactions forms-much like a social network, and much like Wenger's community of practice.
    • Michael Johnson
      Michael Johnson on 12 Jan 11
       
      So, I belIeve he Is sayIng that vIrtual communItIes of practIce that form naturally are more real and approach what Wenger was talkIng about better than contrIved "communItIes" put together In classes. That may be true. but does It have to be? If people come together to wIth a common purpose and the Instructor allows the students freedom to explore what Is Important to them then I would hope that thIs kInd of communIty can develop even In formal educatIonal settIngs. Relevance Is a key Issue here!
  • "We're talking to the download generation," said Peter Smith, associate dean, Faculty of Engineering. "Why not have the option to download information about education and careers the same way you can download music? it untethers content from the Web and lets students access us at their convenience." Moreover, using an online service such as Odeo, Blogomatrix Sparks, or even simply off-the-shelf software, students can create their own podcasts.
  • The e-learning application, therefore, begins to look very much like a blogging tool. it represents one node in a web of content, connected to other nodes and content creation services used by other students. it becomes, not an institutional or corporate application, but a personal learning center, where content is reused and remixed according to the student's own needs and interests. it becomes, indeed, not a single application, but a collection of interoperating applications—an environment rather than a system.
  • Web 2.0 is not a technological revolution, it is a social revolution. "Here's my take on it: Web 2.0 is an attitude not a technology. it's about enabling and encouraging participation through open applications and services. By open i mean technically open with appropriate APis but also, more importantly, socially open, with rights granted to use the content in new and exciting contexts"
  • This approach to learning means that learning content is created and distributed in a very different manner. Rather than being composed, organized and packaged, e-learning content is syndicated, much like a blog post or podcast. it is aggregated by students, using their own personal RSS reader or some similar application. From there, it is remixed and repurposed with the student's own individual application in mind, the finished product being fed forward to become fodder for some other student's reading and use.

  • More formally, instead of using enterprise learning-management systems, educational institutions expect to use an interlocking set of open-source applications. Work on such a set of applications has begun in a number of quarters, with the E-Learning Framework defining a set of common applications and the newly formed e-Framework for Education and Research drawing on an international collaboration. While there is still an element of content delivery in these systems, there is also an increasing recognition that learning is becoming a creative activity and that the appropriate venue is a platform rather than an application.

      Jon Mott has some cool ideas related to this paragraph.
  • he most important learning skills that i see children getting from games are those that support the empowering sense of taking charge of their own learning. And the learner taking charge of learning is antithetical to the dominant ideology of curriculum design
  • game "modding" allows players to make the game their own
  • Words are only meaningful when they can be related to experiences," said Gee. if i say "i spilled the coffee," this has a different meaning depending on whether i ask for a broom or a mop. You cannot create that context ahead of time— it has to be part of the experience.
  • A similar motivation underlies the rapidly rising domain of mobile learning [24]—for after all, were the context in which learning occurs not important, it would not be useful or necessary to make learning mobile. Mobile learning offers not only new opportunities to create but also to connect. As Ellen Wagner and Bryan Alexander note, mobile learning "define(s) new relationships and behaviors among learners, information, personal computing devices, and the world at large"
  • "ubiquitous computing."
  • what this means is having learning available no matter what you are doing.
  • The challenge will not be in how to learn, but in how to use learning to create something more, to communicate.

      I stIll thInk part of the challenge Is how to learn. How to wade through a sea of all that Is out there and "learn from the best" that Is avaIlable. FInd, organIze, evaluate, analyze, synthesIze, as well as create. I agree wIth ChrIs Lott (@fncll) that creatIvIty Is vItal! (I am just not so sure that It Is a non-starter to say that we should be moral fIrst...though It could be argued that we should become moral through the creatIve process).
  • And what people were doing with the Web was not merely reading books, listening to the radio or watching TV, but having a conversation, with a vocabulary consisting not just of words but of images, video, multimedia and whatever they could get their hands on. And this became, and looked like, and behaved like, a network.

    When you look under your sink and see a leak one of the first things that is assumed is time to get new garbage disposal, but this isn't the case. For the most part, if you are leaking around your disposal it is because of a faulty plumbing pipe or poor installation. So check the plumbing and the mounting hardware mounting to the sink itself. if you notice you're still having the leaks it's the time to get in touch with your local plumbing services. Many homeowners have the luxury of having garbage disposal to help make cleaning dishes easier, along with keeping the pipes clear of large food particles. Some may have never thought about getting a garbage disposal until they bought their first house which just happened to have one. This was the case for myself (You can call Best Plumbing Services in USA). i happen to see random light switch by the sink (Being young at the time, not knowing) and turned it on. i then heard this loud growl yell at me from the sink. This was my first run with garbage disposal. Having a garbage disposal has been great but can put you in a panic if you start to have some issues. When problems arise you can start to notice strange smells coming from the sink. You can notice when you flip the power switch you don't hear the disposal running, or you notice that water is continuing to clog. What we have here is 5 simple solutions that you can try to help get your garbage disposal back in operation, before you decide to go out and purchase a new one or call on that Best Plumbing Services in USA AKA the professionals. Yes this is a quick DiY for you. There is A Clogged Garbage Disposal One of the first misconception of a garbage disposal is that it has blades so it can eat through anything. Though yes there are extreme safety precautions (LiKE DON'T PUT YOUR HAND iT THERE WHiLE RUNNiNG) i will share with you the not so obvious things that you should avoid putting in disposal. The list here; oil, grease, or any nonfood item. Though

I want a conversatIon, and that changes the way I wrIte. And It changes the way we thInk about teachIng wrItIng. ThIs Is not sImply about publIshIng, about takIng what we dId on paper and throwIng It up on a blog and pattIng ourselves on the back.
  • Those of us who write to connect and who live our learning lives in these spaces feel the dissonance all the time. We go where we want, identify our own teachers, find what we need, share as much as we can, engage in dialogue, direct our own learning as it meets our needs and desires. That does not feel like what’s happening to my own children or most others in the “system.”
  • I lIterally don’t thInk I could do my job any longer wIthout It - the pace of change Is too rapId, the number of developments I need to follow and master too great, and wIthout my network I would drown. But I am not drownIng, Indeed I feel regularly that I am enjoyIng surfIng these waves and glance over to see other surfers rIght there besIde me, sIlly grIns on all of our faces. So It feels to me lIke It’s workIng, lIke we ARE sharIng, and thrIvIng because of It.

  • For me, conferences are no longer primarily about learning, at least not in the traditional sense of attending lectures, doing activities and taking notes.
  • What I realIzed Is that I often get better InformatIon through my RSS reader and TwItter than I do vIa more tradItIonal, formalIzed educatIonal experIences lIke a conference. WhIle I learned somethIng new from every sessIon I attended, there were a few sessIons where I was glad to be able to sIt wIthIn range of the wIfI and go through my reader, fIndIng exactly what I needed at that moment. ThIs wasn’t because the presentatIons were lackIng, It’s just that I’m startIng to realIze that there’s a lImIt to what I can gaIn from a pre-constructed sessIon, devIsed for a broad audIence, about somethIng that mIght only be IndIrectly related to my learnIng needs.

  • Continuing the Certificate Series, where i have been describing and discussing each of the certificates in online teaching that are focused on the K-12 environment. The sixth one i wanted to discuss was the E-Learning and Online Teaching Graduate Certificate Program at University of Wisconsin-Stout.

    Michael, Thanks for letting your readers know about our program. i am the advisor for the E--Learning and Online Teaching Graduate Certificate program. i also wrote and teach two of our 5 classes, E-Learning for Educators and the E-Learning Practicum. Our graduate classes are offered by the University of Wisconsin Stout, School of Education. (We are not an extension program.) i'm delighted to be able to talk with those interested in K-12 Virtual Education. i was a public school teacher for 25 years before i went fully online. Working online has been a journey of discovery and a constant reminder of the joys of being a lifetime learner. As you mention we do mix together all kinds of educators in our classes. A typical course will include K-12 classroom teachers, some K-12 online teachers and a good number of community college and university instructors. We also see health educators and some corporate trainers. Folks join us from around the country and the world. it's an eclectic mix of people who all share an interest in teaching online. Our goal is to help people become experienced professional online teachers as a way to expand and grow their careers. To accommodate everyone's interests we have our materials highly differentiated. K-12 teachers have the option of investigating the great resources from iNacol. They are encouraged to build useful quizzes and surveys and to craft discussion prompts as they practice facilitation skills. The topics for all projects are learner selected. We emphasize a practical hands on approach where participants can use what they learn and make right away. The great thing is to see a strong community of practice develop between all kinds of educators. Everyone is richer for it. When it comes to the E-Learning Practicum, i customize each student's experience. i have managed some placements with K-12 Virtual Schools. More often, K-12 teachers take one of two options. Both involve teaching with one of our cooperating

    Remove Google Bad Reviews introduction As a small business owner, you probably want to make sure everyone is happy with your business. But what if someone posts a negative review on Google? Do you have any control over whether or not it stays up? And even if you could remove a bad review from Google, how would that be possible? if a customer post a negative comment about one of your products or services on Google, then how do you respond? is there anything that can be done about this problem? in this article we'll discuss everything about deleting bad reviews from google play store and other platforms like Facebook, Yelp and Yelp! How do you respond to a negative comment? When you receive a negative comment, it's easy to get defensive and react with a harsh reply. But this only makes the issue worse. instead of responding with a stern "no," try responding with something positive: "Thanks for your feedback! i'll take it under consideration." Or: "Thanks for your feedback-i'm happy to discuss if there's anything else i can do." You might even try an apology: "i'm sorry that this didn't turn out as we'd hoped." Remove Google Bad Reviews These responses are much more likely to create goodwill than being sarcastic or dismissive (which won't win any friends). How do you Remove a bad review on Google? You can't Remove a bad review on Google. You can remove a bad review from Google with three different methods: Contacting the reviewer, who may be willing to remove the review if you ask them politely enough (this is not recommended).

A bad review on Google is permanent. it's not like when you leave a review for someone else and it disappears after three days. Once you submit a complaint, there's no way to Remove it or change the rating for good. if your review happens to be about an accident or injury caused by another person (and not yourself), then you may be able to get Google to remove that portion of your original post from its database after some time has passed-but only if they verify that what happened was actually an accident or injury and not just something silly like "i spilled my drink."

21stcentury critical pedagogy education sla technology web2.0

shared by Barbara Lindsey on 11 Jul 08 - Cached
  • Months before the newly hired teachers at Philadelphia's Science Leadership Academy (SLA) started their jobs, they began the consuming work of creating the high school of their dreams -- without meeting face to face. They articulated a vision, planned curriculum, designed assessment rubrics, debated discipline policies, and even hammered out daily schedules using the sort of networking tools -- messaging, file swapping, idea sharing, and blogging -- kids love on sites such as MySpace.
  • hen, weeks before the first day of school, the incoming students jumped onboard -- or, more precisely, onto the Science Leadership Academy Web site -- to meet, talk with their teachers, and share their hopes for their education. So began a conversation that still perks along 24/7 in SLA classrooms and cyberspace. it's a bold experiment to redefine learning spaces, the roles and relationships of teachers and students, and the mission of the modern high school.
  • When I hear people say It's our job to create the twenty-fIrst-century workforce, It scares the hell out of me," says ChrIs Lehmann, SLA's foundIng prIncIpal. "Our job Is to create twenty-fIrst-century cItIzens. We need workers, yes, but we also need scholars, actIvIsts, parents -- compassIonate, engaged people. We're not reInventIng schools to create a new versIon of a trade school. We're reInventIng schools to help kIds be adaptable In a world that Is changIng at a blIndIng rate."
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • It's the spIrIt of scIence rather than hardcore currIculum that permeates SLA. "In scIence educatIon, InquIry-based learnIng Is the foothold," Lehmann says. "We asked, 'What does It mean to buIld a school where everythIng Is based on the core values of scIence: InquIry, research, collaboratIon, presentatIon, and reflectIon?'"
  • It means the fIrst-year currIculum Is buIlt around essentIal questIons: Who am I? What Influences my IdentIty? How do I Interact wIth my world? In addItIon to scIence, math, and engIneerIng, core courses Include AfrIcan AmerIcan hIstory, SpanIsh, EnglIsh, and a basIc how-to class In technology that also covers Internet safety and the ethIcal use of InformatIon and software. Classes focus less on facts to be memorIzed and more on skIlls and knowledge for students to master Independently and Incorporate Into theIr lIves. Students rarely take tests; they wrIte reflectIons and do "culmInatIng" projects. LearnIng doesn't merely cross dIscIplInes -- It shatters outdated departmental dIvIsIons. Recently, for Instance, kIds studIed atomIc weIghts In bIochemIstry (Itself a homegrown InterdIscIplInary course), dId mole calculatIons In algebra, and created Dalton models (dIagrams that Illustrate molecular structures) In art.
  • This is Dewey for the digital age, old-fashioned progressive education with a technological twist.
  • computers and networking are central to learning at, and shaping the culture of, SLA. "
  • he zest to experiment -- and the determination to use technology to run a school not better, but altogether differently -- began with Lehmann and the teachers last spring when they planned SLA online. Their use of Moodle, an open source course-management system, proved so easy and inspired such productive collaboration that Lehmann adopted it as the school's platform. it's rare to see a dog-eared textbook or pad of paper at SLA; everybody works on iBooks. Students do research on the internet, post assignments on class Moodle sites, and share information through forums, chat, bookmarks, and new software they seem to discover every day.
  • Teachers continue to use Moodle to plan, dream, and learn, to log attendance and student performance, and to talk about everything -- from the student who shows up each morning without a winter coat to cool new software for tagging research sources. There's also a schoolwide forum called SLA Talk, a combination bulletin board, assembly, PA system, and rap session.
  • Web technology, of course, can do more than get people talking with those they see every day; people can communicate with anyone anywhere. Students at SLA are learning how to use social-networking tools to forge intellectual connections.
  • In October, Lehmann notIced that students were sortIng themselves by race In the lunchroom and some clubs. He felt dIsturbed and started a passIonate thread on self-segregatIon.
  • "Having the conversation changed the way kids looked at themselves," he says.
  • "What I lIke best about thIs school Is the sense of communIty," says student Hannah Feldman. "You're not just here to learn, even though you do learn a lot. It's more lIke a second home."
  • As part of the study of memoirs, for example, Alexa Dunn's English class read Funny in Farsi, Firoozeh Dumas's account of growing up iranian in the United States -- yes, the students do read books -- and talked with the author in California via Skype. The students also wrote their own memoirs and uploaded them to SLA's network for the teacher and class to read and edit. Then, digital arts teacher Marcie Hull showed the students GarageBand, which they used to turn their memoirs into podcasts. These they posted on the education social-networking site EduSpaces (formerly Elgg); they also posted blogs about the memoirs.

Some hopes have been fulfilled beyond my expectations, others have either been proven to be mistakes or are still in their developmental stages. Now, as i look back on the year that was, i will be better able to see the places i want to go in the next year and beyond. -- Randy Rogers
