I agree -- I only knew 4 of them |
| sendkathy |
does anyone have a list of their favs on delicious? |
| sendkathy |
yes |
| sendkathy |
Well where do you keep your list |
| JenniferW |
I am not a faithful del.ici.ious user |
| cathy e |
I'm glad to see David Warlick on the list :) |
| JenniferW |
and I only had ONE of the nominees as part of my bloglines account |
| Jeff |
http://edtechtalk.com/edtechtalk.opml |
| JenniferW |
oops 2 |
| JenniferW |
one of the nominees -- Beth Little (Kittle?) I just heard of last week through Discovery Educators |
| JenniferW |
and I think her readership is small but she has the DEN membership behind her to vote. |
| sharonp |
featured edublog... cool idea |
| JenM |
http://educational.blogs.com/ |
| JenniferW |
I look at blogrolls to see what others are reading |
| sendkathy |
I took one of Jens courses and also two others in flash. I got a lot our of it. |
| Jeff |
http://www.lvsonline.com/ |
| sendkathy |
yes, but the first time you \pay an ectra one time charge of 25 |
| sendkathy |
it ranges |
| sendkathy |
I had a nice small flash class of 6 |
| JenniferW |
do you kathy?? I didn't know |
| sendkathy |
what? |
| JenniferW |
pay a reg fee |
| sendkathy |
The cost is a one time charge of 25 and then 25 for each subsequent classes. You get credit for referrals and can earn a free class. |
| sendkathy |
They always send you a notice about the regitration dates |
| sendkathy |
They have a server for you to upload your work |
| sendkathy |
You can pay an extra 5 to be 'certified' |
| sendkathy |

| sendkathy |
Our system would if you wrote a proposal to do it |
| sendkathy |
It has to meet all of the requirements |
| cathy e |
My system would too if there was a prior approval signed by staff dev person in central office |
| sendkathy |
what is we had a blog weekly blog review |
| sendkathy |
yes |
| sendkathy |
must break for dinner , brb |
| JenniferW |
Sorry-- I am not finding any other online learning websites like LvsOnline.com |
| charbeck1 |
Why does Stephen hve a dislike of sooo many people? |
| JenniferW |
I am stunned though -- I didn't realize WILL didn't make it |
| JenniferW |
do you think EVERYONE thought he would be nominated |
| JenniferW |
so no one nominated him?? |
| JenniferW |
I am finding Stephen to be complex but knowledgeable |
| lee |
how did edtechtalk not get nominated? |
| charbeck1 |
thanks |
| JenniferW |
I have to remember his GOOD attributes or I get bugged by his grumpiness |
| JenniferW |
I agree LEE |
| charbeck1 |
thousands of subscribers |
| JenniferW |
I have 10 in bloglines -- that is my limit :) |
| charbeck1 |
4000+ |
| dave |
http://cribchronicles.com/ |
| JenniferW |
lol - if I add someone, I take someone out :) |
| charbeck1 |
correction for will 3429 subscribers |
| Brad Hicks |
If we start getting hung up on why certain people weren't nominated perhaps we shouldn't be bothering with such awards. Perhaps it is better to have these awards purely as a newcomer's each year. otherwise do we just become an introspective network? |
| Brad Hicks |
at least with newcomer's the network has a chance for refreshing and expansion |
| JenniferW |
That is what I posted on Will's blog -- I am more intrigued with the NEW Users |
| JenniferW |
and seeing their perspective |
| Brad Hicks |
not to ndervalue people like Stephen and Will - but they have an established readership and profile |
| charbeck1 |
Define tech-learning crowd? |
| JenniferW |
Brad -- I don't mean to be a grump -- I just think a TOP 5 is good enough for me |
| Brad Hicks |
and as dave said those people will blog regardless |
| charbeck1 |
When people leave comments on your siteThen you go and learn from them. |
| Jeff |
http://edublogosphere.com/ |
| JenniferW |
and WILL has a "expectation" on why people should blog. And if I adhered to his "why people should blog" I would never blog again. |
| sharonp |
I don't know, there is a part of me that just wants to blog for reasons other than self-promotion |
| lee |
I love how happy you all look! |
| JenniferW |
time to add color |
| lee |
good point Brad! |
| lee |
I do agree now that you mention it that way |
| JenniferW |
Sharon -- did you hear Will's point on WHY to blog at GAETC??? |
| Brad Hicks |
one of the things you have to say for Stephen is that he covers a broad range of material- much more than most i read |
| sharonp |
took notes on it.... but what point? |
| JenniferW |
I shall stay MUTED tomorrow night 100% |
| lee |
i think stephen has a very distinct personal point of view |
| lee |
that does not always come off as "nice" |
| sharonp |
let me check my own blog where I posted notes on his talk.... |
| lee |
but its real for sure |
| JenniferW |
that you should BLOG if you have something to say -- it needs to have substance -- it needs to have a reason. |
| JenniferW |
like an agenda to post |
| sharonp |
http://www.mtl-peters.net/blog/?p=97 |
| JenniferW |
he doesn't seem to support casual teaching bloggin |
| JenniferW |
like -- he would call mine FLUFF |
| charbeck1 |
Is there a skype chat going on? |
| JenniferW |
but other's seem to like mine |
| sharonp |
He said roughly - The blog is an extremely important part of his life. He considers himself a blog snob. To him, blogs are more than journals – the link is a powerful thing – small pieces loosely joined (a book) – when we have links we evaluate it by where those links take us – very specific genre of writing – because of the linking and connecting – intellectual sweat for him (takes time and energy). |

bye dave |

| lee |
i have no readers! well one.. terry freedman has been reading mine and vice versa |
| sharonp |
The point we are at with blogs in classrooms – most of what we are using – are not yet pushing the potential. It is very difficult to find best practices – hard to find spaces where students are using them as places of learning, not just places of journaling. Good blogging starts with reading – from different sources than linking back to them. Reading starts with RSS – good blogging begins with reading – responding, synthesizing, doing critical thinking before they begin the writing process. The idea is to get students to read blogs – and challenge how to vet the authority of a blog. |
| lee |
but i dont care if people dont read it |
| JenM |
http://designedtoinspire.com/drupal/node/112 |
| lee |
since i dont see myself as a good writer |
| JenniferW |
lee -- you have readers |
| JenM |
If no one reads your blog, does it have "meaning"? I posed a similar question in my class discussion and got "feedback" that I want to hang onto. Blogs are often tauted as a means for commentary and assessment. Yet, the benefits of blogging for the sake of journaling or personal reflection can become lost in the process of seeking feedback. While I am motivated by the eyes that may one day read this, I was reminded that there are other reasons - beyond seeking feedback - that make blogging a "meaningful" pursuit. Therefore, to answer my own question . . . "yes" and here is why . . . My original proposal to the class: "...what makes a blog more meaningful than a personal learning journal is that the output is shared (and potentially assessed) within a larger community. When we were introduced to writing our own blogs at NYU, we were also given feeds to other “edubloggers” via a blogroll provided by our instructor. We set up accounts on Bloglines.com to track the posts of other professionals in the field. What |
| JenniferW |
probably a ton -- just perhaps not subscribers |
| lee |
hmmm thats something I have not thought of... i guess i was thinking of subscribers only but your right..folks probably read alot of stuff and there is little trace of them having been there |
| lee |
thanks Jenn |
| JenniferW |
Lee -- I put a counter on my blog |
| JenniferW |
so I knew if someone was reading |
| JenniferW |
I only have 45 subscribers-- but I have had over 3,200 readers since September |
| JenniferW |
you might wish to add a counter |
| sharonp |
I sort of agree |
| sharonp |
it is good for me to be writing |
| sendkathy |
hey wouldn't it be nice to have a feedback survey on a blog. What if you could check 1-5 disliked - enjoyed alot and will share Then ou wouldn't have to write 'meaningful' response |
| lee |
i do but i just looked and i have it set to start when republished... ok.. a good duh moment. I changed it. |
| lee |
imean start back at 0 each time i publish |
| lee |
.mac does that by default |
| charbeck1 |
How about when you try to get your students to leave comments behind at other blogs have no comments allowed. This is frustrating |
| JenniferW |
your mac does what??? |
| JenniferW |
sorry lee -- I don't understand |
| charbeck1 |
Too many blurkers not enough commenting. It is such an important part of reading blogs. |
| JenniferW |
blurker ---- LOL --- nice to see my word hanging out here :) |
| lee |
i do my blog on my computer..then publish at which time it republishes the whole entire site ..there is a place to choose to have the counter start over at 0 each time it is published... i had not turned that version off so it starts at 0 each time i put up something new |
| charbeck1 |
Just send a Thanks I appreciated your blog. Or do we all read in bloglines. |
| lee |
blurking again eh? |
| sharonp |
I read a TON of blogs every week.... but responding takes time - one wants to come off sounding intelligent and appreciative |
| JenniferW |
Lee -- you use iWeb and dot Mac?? |
| lee |
yes |
| JenniferW |
I have it -- I haven't utilized it yet though |
| sharonp |
aggregators rock - changed my life |

Web women not needing men talking about education and ..... |
| sharonp |
chris, I am confused about your comment about web women... |
| charbeck1 |
not needing men might be leading people the wrong way too |
| charbeck1 |
