  • o, if you set up Google Apps: Education Edition, collect parent consent for students to use it, and control the student accounts yourselves, you’re in good shape with respect to COPPA.

      This is the part that's pertinent to us.

First Steps Toward Becoming a 21st Century Educator | always learning - 0 views

  • The development of a personal learning network (or PLN) is absolutely essential for any successful 21st century educator.
    • Russ Goerend
       
      The point of a PLN is that we are not alone. We're not the only ones trying to do what we're trying to do -- to be wordy. There is no reason to reinvent the wheel every time we want to try something we see as new.
  • Once you’ve set it up, your RSS reader will aggregate all of the new posts on those fantastic blogs in one place – like an e-mail inbox for websites and blogs. Instead of scrambling around trying to find all the best new posts, just sit back and let them come to you!

      My favorite digital tool is Google Reader. Blog posts are so much more fleshed out and thoughtful than Twitter posts, and comments on blog posts can start a real discussion, instead of a simplified one like on Twitter. Don't get me wrong, I get a lot out of my Twitter network, but Google Reader is great.
  • In order to really bring your network together, you will need to share your own thoughts and learnings with your PLN.
    • Russ Goerend
       
      I agree with this fully. 21st Century Learning involves creating and sharing like has never been possible before. We need to be reflecting and sharing those reflections. For transparency's sake, my blog is www.tagmirror.org

  • Twitter is a powerful tool for sharing quick snippets of your thinking, for connecting with others, and for widening your information consumption a little bit at a time.

      Great description of Twitter.
  •  
    Reading material for our CSIP. Preferably reading material that isn't printed out :) A good first step for our CSIP would be to get back involved with Diigo. This could be a bookmark that we could work on "making ours" by highlighting and sticky noting it.

Social Networking Workshop for Parents | The Thinking Stick - 0 views

  •  
    I think this would be a really good idea for our parents. Maybe not this year, but if we get into Google Docs, etc., it would be a good idea to do an overview for parents.
  •  
    Helping parents understand what students are doing on the internet, and how they are social. Also safety questions.
  •  
    I think this is a great idea, and speaking with friends who are parents, I think it would be well received. Personally, I'd like to become just a little more familiar with all of these items before setting something like this up. Definitely a future idea.
