Alex and arvind are on vacation, so we're going to re-broadcast some of our WebcastAcademy shows to fill in until September.

Show #3 is the second part of a two part discussion of blogging in education. We asked, what's your story about blogging and the read/write web?

Where have you been this summer? What places remind you of events when you see them on a map? What spots hold special memories and why?

Join us to share ways that we have and that we are planning to use Google maps or mapping in our schools. How do our newest technologies encourage us to expand our use and study of mapping in the classroom and in the digital story room?

We discuss who we are as a 'Educational Technology' community and how we can get our community's message spread to a wider audience. A quick look at a few different wikipedia entries for ed tech will show you how silent the community has been... With the recent discussions about DOPA and Blackboard, that community voice is more important than ever.
