December 5, 2009 from 6pm to 7pm
Conference is underway now! Joyce Valenza's and Konrad Glogowski's keynotes go live on Monday 12/7 with live Fireside Chat on Saturday, 12/12 at 1:30 Eastern. Details on this free, global conference at K12Online.ning.com http://k12online.ning.com/…
Stephanie, I heard Chris Harris say "Anything that's blocked can be unblocked." And I've never forgotten it. If you come up with a really good project for blogging (or any other tool) you might be able to persuade them to unblock some of the tools.…
I just read about a blogging tool for teachers and students based on Wordpress called Eduperience. Read more about it here: http://ilearntechnology.com/?p=1348 It sounds great!
Class Blogmeister is another good blogging tool: http://classblogmeister.com/ It's designed for teachers and students.

- Hey!
I tried to comment back from my phone, but I don't see it here...so just in case, I'll say it again...you always have a tremendous positive impact in everything you do for us in our profession...so I'm sure this workshop was no different. It was remote? That would be challenging in and of itself. I guess you don't live in Debary any longer...NC?

- You are welcome! Have fun at FAME. I wish I could go. Not many of us in Lee County will be there. September conferences are just about impossible for our bookkeepers to do. The money just came in this week. Deb Hanson is the only media specialist I know that is going. She was our leader at the summer cadre that started me on this journey. I hope she introduces herself to you! She's amazing! Maybe Deb will tweet everything so we can feel like we are there...like Joyce Valenza did at ALA :) Fun!

- Thanks! I just saw your message! I spend quite a bit of time this past weekend trying to make sense of fair use and apply it to my Prezi... I'm still a little confused, but I am comfortable in your using it as it is. I'm very glad you like it so much!
I will send you a quick email next with something else fun you can use if you wish!
Thanks for all you do, Donna!

- Really? You can see the ones I'm working on? Interesting. I'm using the Welcome to the Media Center one with all our students this week...my reading teachers and students are loving Prezi. :) I have just started the orientation Prezi. I am considering making it into a center/scavenger hunt. I think Prezi would make great centers. I could sent it up with multiple versions that have slightly different paths and have students running all over the media center finding clues for some sort of self checking perfect practice thing hidden on the Prezi.
I was able to share my groundblog with one teacher today, too. Exciting! If you have an email, I have something else you might want to see or share. Thanks! Kathy

- I'm honored! It was well received at our preschool in-service. :) I had wanted to tweek the pictures and make sure they were all completely copyright appropriate. May I have a few days to do that?
Thanks again!

- Great! I'm working on some revisions based on more recent surveys...it's a work in progress. See the last issue of Knowledge Quest, too. My article is in it "Web 2.0 and You" but it's also online here:

I also played with the data in WebGenie and Twittered the graph:

You can see you are definitely on track with prof dev topic!
Keeps me out of trouble. Mostly.
Love Sandi Agle....sounds like a dynamite team!

- Donna,
I can't wait to share your wiki with our cadre and then our media specialists in August! It is one-stop shopping for all our Web 2.0 needs. How like you. It's wonderful!

- Sounds, great! Yes, it is Lee County. We had a wonderful cadre lead by Sandi Agle, Deb Hanson (amazing) and Jo Carlson where we were introduced to all things Web 2.0. I have been on a thrilling ride the last month following the experts and playing with tools. I haven't had this much fun learning about educational media since...well, since I was in your classes! (No, you couldn't remember me...it 1980-82 :/) I'll check out the site you mentioned! Thanks again!

- I retired from the University of Central Florida in August 2007. I've been working on a survey about school library media specialists knowledge and use of webtools (web 2.0) and a wiki where we can all share resources and ideas for using webtools to make us more productive and engage students in their own learning.

PLEASE add any examples of Web 2.0 tools in use in your library media center to the WebTools4U2Use wiki. It really needs REAL WORLD examples.
