"Alan November talks about the importance of making students contributors to their own learning. I have been following his work for years (seen him present in person a couple of times too). I have been especially paying attention to his thoughts about how, over the years, it seems that we have taken away the reason/relevance for learning of our children."

Excellent video about Technology, Really thoughtful and entertaining.

Glog for organizing some Web 2.0 Teacher Tools that I thought teachers in my building should start utilizing. I linked to several videos explaining what they were and how they worked. I also linked to several other presentations, websites, publications, etc. that listed several Web 2.0 tools that teachers should and could be using to make life easier. Feel free to pass it along to your staff.

Wow this is amazing!!

have been fortunate enough to see many resources created by the thousands of willing educators using Twitter. However in my opinion there is a strong case for using hashtagging more systematically, so that we better organise and structure the resources, ideas and thoughts we all have.

Well thought out implementation process for implementing learning centers. 

This is another great thought and debate provoking article. It brings up the point of how cursive handwriting is not part of Common Core standards and may have little impact on future jobs.

"The Best Sites That Students Can Use Independently And Let Teachers Check On Progress is a "The Best…" list that can come in very handy for teachers and for students. It lists free sites where teachers can register their students, and both can keep track of their progress. They can be useful for reinforcing concepts and language learned in the classroom. Most, thought not all, of the sites on that list focus on English."

On my recent trip to Shanghai China for the Learning 2.011 conference I was struck but so much that the experience will likely feed my thinking for the rest of my life. The conference is a bringing together of international school teachers, led by some of the most stellar educational minds of our time.

It was in this rarified company that I was given time and opportunity to go out and explore China as a pedestrian learner.
