Students are Not the Only Ones who "Unplug"
In this month's issue of Tech & Learning, there is an article "Follow the Leader" by Ellen Ullman which discusses administrators who made an effort to include social media in their schools to enhance communication, engage students, and explore opportunities. One administrator saw Twitter as a way to send messages to all stakeholders within the school community. Then from there he linked up with the NASSP to show other school leaders how social media and Web 2.0 tools can be integrated into schools. I admire teachers, administrators, and others in education who look beyond test scores and the "possible" negatives of social media and make the effort to use it in their schools.
I come from a county that restricts so many sites. I have heard the term students are asked to "unplug" when they walk into the school building but what about teachers? I use so many tools at home that I can not access at school and when I am… Continue

Audio In The Classroom
Various audio media- for recording and transmitting the human voice and other sounds for instructional purposes. With so much concern about keeping our multitasking students (listening to music, watching T.V., instant messaging, while studying) engaged it may be hard to understand the importance of an audio experience.
However, audio can have dramatic effect if presented in the right situation. Consider this infamous Orson Welles radio broadcast. This Halloween radio program in 1938 created panic amongst listeners. Take a little time to listen to this broadcast. It is quite captivating. To listen to the broadcast click here: War of Worlds .
Not every podcast or audio played in the classroom has to be this dramatic. However, audio is important for students day to day,…

Things I Learned at MSET11
This was my first year attending the MSET Conference that I did not have a classroom to go back to and try things. It was a different perspective but a good one. I felt like I was looking at things from an outside point of view because I heard a lot of stories of/about "students" and I didn't have any to share from this year.
Many ideas I saw made me want to go right back to work so that I could implement them into a classroom. :) But I am enjoying being home with my little ones too much, so I will takes the ideas I saw and share them so that those who are teaching actively can hopefully use them.
Video I made for my Grad Class.... shows the cool tools from MSET11.
I learned that…
