This could be a nice article to present to teachers interested in using wikis in the classroom. Look at the embedded link of the wiki board - John Howell

The idea for the poster was based on the children’s board game Chutes and Ladders, which moves players from square to square with occasional sliding past a few squares via a chute. The three stages through which the wiki poster moves are design, implement and sustain, with the last stage providing the biggest challenge. - John Howell

free show by walking the streets of a small town in France ~ strolling along and playing his guitar and singing. At one point he stopped and jammed with a woman who was playing some type of violin like instrument. Pretty interesting video ~ original idea. - John Howell

Imagine hundreds of thousands of great short videos, and other media, explaining every topic taught to school kids. Imagine them rated and sorted into a giant Directory, making them simple to find. WatchKnow--as in, "You watch, you know"--is a non-profit online community devoted to this goal - John Howell

Love the bullet points: Questions for Will Richardson for TODAY 1. Why don't we have an IEP for every child and every teacher 2. Why doesn't every child have a laptop or netbook with 24/7 access to tutorials, info, and productivity tools for all learners - John Howell

they mentioned struggling to get to all writers in time...I think that technology can help this process a bit with the built in "commenting" features. - John Howell

I think I am going to look at the Kindle a bit more closely...off to Google I go to read through a bit more about it. - John Howell

just watched Marzano's presentation where he addresses the question "What do we know about the effect of technology on student achievement?" at the CUE 2009 Conference on March 6, 2009. This slide share is a nice support to that presentation with real examples that we teachers could use. - John Howell

Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) attempts to capture some of the essential qualities of knowledge required by teachers for technology integration in their teaching, while addressing the complex, multifaceted and situated nature of teacher knowledge. At the heart of the TPACK framework, is the complex interplay of three primary forms of knowledge: Content (CK), Pedagogy (PK), and Technology (TK) - John Howell

Last night at our schools Fall Party a group of students I had last year showed up. I asked one of my students I had last year, "so, have you found any good websites lately?" And he mentioned "Kiva" a site he has been using in one of his middle school classes. The irony is that I woke up this morning to find it in my Google Reader via David Jakes. - John Howell
