Tim and Tim

Today I am in a blog workshop with Tim and Tim. Checked out Michael Wesch here. We need to prepare for new literacy. We want our students to compete in the world. The World is Flat is a great read.

Why should we blog?

• Learning community
• Making connections at a broader level
• Ownershipp and voice
• Interactive
• Conversation
• Write for an audience

ETV Workshops

I am in Columbia attending workshops. "Welcome to the Blogoshere" is encouraging me to again think about ways to use blogs in school.

On Tuesday, I attended "ETV Extras". I found out about One Place. This will be so easy to use. One site to search many sites. I have also attended "iPods", "Media Literacy", "Promethean" (I won a flash drive!) and "50 Ways to use StreamlineSC".

I have one more day of workshops. The workshops are worth the time!
