I don’t post too much about my personal life on this blog, but this I gotta share. My sister has gotten engaged! Her fiance, Andy, should definitely feel privileged because she has incredibly high standards in everything that she does. From food, to clothes, to theater, and apparently in husbands, she knows […]

Re: 2 Cents Worth » Asking the Right Questions
Warlick has continued the Classroom of 2015 conversation by adjusting his question slightly.
What should todays children reasonably expect from our education system over the next ten years?
This is a topic I can really get behind. And so can a few others. Bob Sprankle, of Room […]

I’m trying to type up a blogpost discussing all the new stuff Apple released today, and just went through the classic bloggers horror story. Spending 30 minutes typing up the perfect entry, linking everything in and then having the browser crash losing it all. I know, I know, I should type it up […]

Photos have been uploaded. Appearantly I took a ton of photos at the ‘advanced’ session and not so many at the education session. Too busy running around with a microphone and being inspired by what everyone was saying I guess.
Click on the link above to see them all, but here’s a few to […]

Post lunch coma has been delayed so I could jet over to the podcasting teaching and learning session. Warlick is moderating this one. You can read the session notes here.
Dave is point out that kids are connecting to each other in new ways, and they’re used to connecting to each other at all […]

At the ‘advanced’ podcasting session right now. I’m sitting with John Blake, and Dave Warlick wil be joining us soon. Really, it’s all about moving beyond the USB microphone and making your podcast sound professional. I’m sitting next to John Blake who I’ve finally met in person.
First tip, get […]

At PodcasterCon right now getting the general introduction. This doesn’t quite feel like a conference, it feels more like a big group of people who’ve decided to all hang out on the same day. First of all, I really love the name tags that he created. They’re all 5.25” or 3.5” floppy […]

If you’re reading this blog, you probably have at least a passing interest in education, and you are more tech savvy than most of the people sitting around you in the cafeteria. So here’s my question to you:
Where do you go for your information? When you want to collaborate with other teachers, administrators […]

I really hope that people don’t think I’m just shamelessly promoting my new company, but so much of this just has me jazzed up. I spent about 90 minutes showing our regional managers some tips and tricks about the finer art of blogging, and they are just running with it. Not only is […]

Dave Warlick posted a year end podcast containing a few hundred interviews with teachers encouraging them to think about what the classroom of 2015 would look like. Unfortunately, I have to disagree with the projections of many of the teachers. I wouldn’t go so far as to say I have a pessimistic view […]

This is one of those incredibly cool things that I’ve been wanting to share but had to keep under wraps until now. Discovery Education has set up a series of live webinars with some of the biggest names in the EdTech world. Presenters will be doing a live presentation, and will hang around […]
