I am planning on directing my principal, school district technology P.D. people to this podcast. All of the things you mentioned I have been able to learn about on my own this summer. However, I am wondering how long it will take before other people in my school will be using these tools (delicious, blogging, moodle, flickr, etc.) It did take me the length of my summer vacation to really understand how to use these tools myself before thinking about how they could be used to help drive my thinking and planning for my students and my future learning. Thanks for taking the time to do this. Wesley,

I am SO glad to see Kobus van Wyk’s blog listed. I recently pushed it for Blog Day 2007, and already I’ve seen it twice today in two other blogs (including this one). One PLN that has been REALLY powerful for me and some others this summer has been the Webcast Academy at Ed Tech Talk. Ed Tech Talk and World Bridges is a wonderful place to meet with educators implementing technology in the classroom, and it’s great because they are at a variety of different levels. There, enough of the commercial. Great presentation.

I liked the PowerPoint slides in a PDF. I still have so much trouble with the Web 2.0 sites in that the district blocks the information. I am not sure what we can do to effect change in this arena.
