If you haven't had a chance to see Quest Atlantis, check it out online, then join our conversation. http://crlt.indiana.edu/research/qa.html http://atlantis.crlt.indiana.edu/ See you Thursday.
Hello Maya,
I agree, being an early adopter is tough. But you are on the right track. Ernie Easter would be a great contact since your students and his are studying the Holocaust. Just that connection alone may be enough for your tech folks to under…

We Believe in You and We Will Help!

Which profession do you think has changed the most… Continue

Meet a 21st Century Learner, a prosumer, a student!

The communication from teachers and students takes place on the Ning. (This in effect is due to the CIPA regulations for student… Continue

Accept a Challenge Try Something New With Your Network
The last time we bloggers at TechLearning wrote about going to dinner together was during the NECC extravaganza, where 52 of us signed up online to meet up at a restaurant in San Antonio, and we pulled it off!

Camp is very interesting to teach especially with kids from around the world (funny since they only know 2 English words which makes it difficult to teach them and the words are usually swear ones)

Hi, Alice. Like you, I find the gifts feature much too silly and Facebook-like. You can easily remove it by clicking the "remove the gifts feature" link from the Gifts icon on your Manage page. Cheers.
