A curious child stopped a teacher one day And said, “Miss, I have something important to say… I’ve been learning to read and to write and to spell But sometimes it hasn’t been going so well And it’s starting to make me a little upset There are quite a few things that I REALLY don’t get!

"I have been using the Bamboo a few weeks now and really like it. It is the same size as a pen with some weight so the feel of it is much better. Excellent build quality for a simple tool and the silicon type top means it very nicely glides across the screen and much easier than the Pogo stylus. I really am enjoying using it. I have a number of notepads for different projects open within the app Penultimate and its working really well. Referring back is easy. Not carrying paper is great and the only thing I am very careful about is ensuring my iPad always has plenty of battery."

"Whenever friends or family forward those jokes emails or motivational videos clips, the first thing I'll do is to delete them. Pardon me, but I seldom see any true value in those emails to really justify the few minutes reading or watching them. But a few days ago, something made me watch a motivational videos clip. It was sent by my sister. And I was glad I did that. It was so heart wrenching and yet motivational that for the first time I realize there can be gems in such emails! I cried. And I just couldn't stop. Because of that, I've decided to compile a list of all the wonderful motivational videos clips that I can find and hope they'll inspire you just like how they've motivated me. Live your life to the fullest pursuing your dreams. Regardless of whatever odds you may face. And be absolutely grateful for everything around you. Be it your friends, family, classmates or even your neighbours."

Panoramic, 3D Interactive Tour of the Hagia Sophia « Indiana Jen - 0 views

panoramic interactive tour Hagia Sophia

shared by Carol Mortensen on 29 Jul 11 - No Cached

The Hagia Sophia (in Greek Ἁγία Σοφία) is one of the most famous churches in all of Christendom. Prior to the building of Saint Peters in Rome, it was the Christian church. The current iteration built by the Emperor Justinian in the 7th century served as the center for Christendom until its fall to the Muslim Turks in the 15th century. For 500 years, it served as a mosque until Atatürk turned it into a state museum. The Hagia Sophia  is one of the greatest landmarks in history and merits an extensive visit. In fact, I spent 24 hours on a train from Romania to Istanbul just for the opportunity to walk through its halls and visit its famed dome. However, travel is a bit extensive. Here is an exceptional 3D, interactive tour of the Hagia Sophia. Don’t worry about the Greek on the website (unless you happen to know modern Greek). The information in the tour itself is actually english. You can pan, zoom, turn, examine close-ups, etc. It takes a minute to load, so be patient!

shared by Carol Mortensen on 26 Aug 11 - No Cached

Driving questions (DQ) can be a beast. When I train teachers, they say the same thing, "Writing the driving question is one of the hardest parts of an effective PBL." I agree. When I am constructing a DQ for a PBL project, I go through many drafts. It's only now, after implementing many projects and having coached countless teachers that I consider myself adept.
