A minor departure from technology.

I am pleased to share a blog that I subscribe to and whose author made a point I have been trying to convince people of for a long time. If nothing else, this just shows that there are other people who think like me.

Have a great day!

In the interests of using web 2.0 to discuss web 2.0, I thought it appropriate to also do a little collaboration across time and space and check out the presentation done by another professional educator. We will be going over this in class, as well as searching for other interesting web 2.0 tools you might use in your classroom.
