What are we going to do today?


How long will this take

I see something like this and wonder how far  behind we in Brigadoon really are.

Perhaps the most telling response on the subject of PLNs is from my student Hope, who says, “My iGoogle page is very helpful and helps me keep things organized. It lets me know when my agenda changes.” The fact that a ninth grader would talk about her own research agenda gives a glimpse into the power of the PLN; she is using a term here that is often reserved for grad students!

Overcoming technology barriers

I think we have violated a couple of these ideas already. By we I mean Gates Beatles. And by violated I mean the small fast projects (no. 4). ACE & School of Tomorrow were big broad projects that included many students but not many teachers. It would be nice if we could move some of our teachers out of the web -1.0 arena into the web 1.0 section.

The newest way to propose

Wired has this:

A San Francisco web designer used Twitter to pop the question Thursday, asking his co-worker to marry him in what looks like might be the microblogging service’s first-ever second marriage proposal.

What happened to good old fashioned romance?? Sheesh! :)
