2008-10-06 22:10:52 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk:@penny-I love the concept of the Lan parties where a small group of people cometogether in someone's living room to watch a presentation or two and talk aboutit.
2008-10-06 22:11:35 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: youcould invite a small group of parents to come and watch something you selectthat would be timely :-)
2008-10-06 22:11:36 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: Wouldthe presentations be such that parents and teachers should/could watch together??
2008-10-06 22:11:48 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk:thinking same thing same time
2008-10-06 22:12:02 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk:certainly the parents as partners would be excellent
2008-10-06 22:12:07 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk:absolutely! and you don't have to view them "live" so you can previewand select an appropriate topic
2008-10-06 22:12:18 [Message] shareski -> -EdTechTalk:@Penny....I'm sure some would be, particularly the keynotes
2008-10-06 22:12:55 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: myluck it'll all be blocked at the school ;)
2008-10-06 22:13:42 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk:@Penny, I think that's a great idea. Biggest problem I've had has been withtaxpayers who complain that things were good enough for them 35 years ago, it'sgood enough now.
2008-10-06 22:14:14 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk:maybe you can hold it away from school :-)
2008-10-06 22:14:23 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk:(NOTE: I didn't say "parents", I've heard it from a variety ofcommunity members)

2008-10-06 22:16:48 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: asmall eatery wouldn't have internet -- we are small small town -- we'd cause areal buzz if we did that

2008-10-06 22:20:18 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: Ithink the school should give them time to attend -- but maybe next time afterthey see the value that might happen
2008-10-06 22:20:25 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk:@Peggy, a wireless lan party.
2008-10-06 22:21:02 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: yes:-) We actually called it a LaWN party to keep the word Lan in it
2008-10-06 22:21:17 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk:@Penny, it would be great if that could happen. For us, it is happening at 8:00am.

2008-10-06 21:34:45 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: I can't shelter my kids from everything -- I have to give them the skills to fillter themselves
2008-10-06 21:35:12 [Message] matt montagne -> -EdTechTalk: show administrators the link to the article from the American Psychologist...it really dispells the predator issue...

2008-10-06 21:36:28 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: does that backfire when they google themselves?
2008-10-06 21:38:06 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: I am at a school where about 15percent of kids don't have access to a computer outside of school. A parent told me that they didn't want their child in a podcast because someone might find a picture and use photoshop to remove their clothes. That's what the media teaches.
2008-10-06 21:38:13 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: I read a powerful email from a local HS student yesterday where she very articulately requested a specific site be unblocked so she could do her research project. It was so persuasive the IMT director unblocked the site :-)

2008-10-06 21:38:49 [Message] matt montagne -> -EdTechTalk: it was interesting to hear folks talk about cyber bullying as the next big issue of adult techno-panic...they didn't minimize the issue, but they also worked to keep in perspective
2008-10-06 21:39:05 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: I really like Nancy Willard's work! She is very persuasive!

2008-10-06 21:43:11 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: I love that photo, trying to figure out if I can use it in a presentation on how to get teachers to participate (or at least listen) to some of the k12online conference.
2008-10-06 21:43:16 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: What is the fear on the school's part for letting us help?

2008-10-06 21:49:04 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: it's great just to know what to ask at the supper table
2008-10-06 21:51:22 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: @Penny, I used to post "conversation starters" for parents to ask their students about things we did during the day.
2008-10-06 21:51:33 [Message] czautcke -> -EdTechTalk: WOW! The district invested in domain names!
2008-10-06 21:51:42 [Message] matt montagne -> -EdTechTalk: Purchasing domain names for their students...really great idea...
2008-10-06 21:51:56 [Message] cindy seibel -> -EdTechTalk: @DAveC where did you post the conversation starters for parents? school website?
2008-10-06 21:52:09 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: On my homework page and blog.
2008-10-06 21:52:14 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: @Dave -- that's fantastic -- just what most parents want

2008-10-06 22:05:12 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: Matt was the only problem on my end too
2008-10-06 22:05:52 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: you should talk more about your K12online preso on your show :-)
2008-10-06 22:06:02 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: @Peggy, seconded!
2008-10-06 22:06:26 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: it sounds like a pecha kucha presentation--is that 20 slides, 5 minutes?
2008-10-06 22:06:36 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: :-)
2008-10-06 22:06:37 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: What would be the best way to cheerlead k12 online in the school -- from a parent!!
2008-10-06 22:07:20 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: there is a flyer you can post if that would help. Wes shared it on the earlier show today
2008-10-06 22:07:32 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: Where are the flyers? I couldn't find them.
2008-10-06 22:08:21 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: will have to do something more personal than that -- but I don't want to seem like I am telling them what they should do...
2008-10-06 22:08:35 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: just hi-lite an opportunity

2008-10-06 22:10:52 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: @penny-I love the concept of the Lan parties where a small group of people come together in someone's living room to watch a presentation or two and talk about it.
2008-10-06 22:11:35 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: you could invite a small group of parents to come and watch something you select that would be timely :-)
2008-10-06 22:11:36 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: Would the presentations be such that parents and teachers should/could watch together ??
2008-10-06 22:11:48 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: thinking same thing same time
2008-10-06 22:12:02 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: certainly the parents as partners would be excellent
2008-10-06 22:12:07 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: absolutely! and you don't have to view them "live" so you can preview and select an appropriate topic
2008-10-06 22:12:18 [Message] shareski -> -EdTechTalk: @Penny....I'm sure some would be, particularly the keynotes
2008-10-06 22:12:55 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: my luck it'll all be blocked at the school ;)
2008-10-06 22:13:42 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: @Penny, I think that's a great idea. Biggest problem I've had has been with taxpayers who complain that things were good enough for them 35 years ago, it's good enough now.
2008-10-06 22:14:14 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: maybe you can hold it away from school :-)
2008-10-06 22:14:23 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: (NOTE: I didn't say "parents", I've heard it from a variety of community members)
2008-10-06 22:14:44 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: @DaveC--yes! I've heard it from teachers too!
2008-10-06 22:15:01 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: is Matt talking?
2008-10-06 22:15:05 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: Always have access to the community library -- may have to scheme
2008-10-06 22:15:10 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: I think I hear someone breathing.
2008-10-06 22:15:45 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: Maybe a small, local eatery to keep it really casual
2008-10-06 22:16:06 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: even some of the presentations that show some exciting things being done with technology in schools could be excellent for parents/teachers to watch together and discuss.
2008-10-06 22:16:45 [Message] matt montagne -> -EdTechTalk: sorry I can't b heard!!! Rats!
2008-10-06 22:16:48 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: a small eatery wouldn't have internet -- we are small small town -- we'd cause a real buzz if we did that
2008-10-06 22:17:00 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: food is good! Jeff Utecht did some pizza and beer Lan parties last year :-) can't do that at school

2008-10-06 22:18:18 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: if you have wireless access at someone's home you could even do it in the back yard and have a BBQ or potluck and eat and talk
2008-10-06 22:18:36 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: I am going to work on this -- we have parent council coming up -- supposed to be a parent tech night -- but no parents have been asked to be involved in what is happening -- maybe soon...
2008-10-06 22:19:38 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: we did it last year in someone's home who had wireless access and it worked great! we're planning to do it again. Small group--maybe 8 people
2008-10-06 22:20:18 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: I think the school should give them time to attend -- but maybe next time after they see the value that might happen
2008-10-06 22:20:25 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: @Peggy, a wireless lan party.
2008-10-06 22:21:02 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: yes :-) We actually called it a LaWN party to keep the word Lan in it
2008-10-06 22:21:17 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: @Penny, it would be great if that could happen. For us, it is happening at 8:00am.
2008-10-06 22:21:45 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: what's happening at 8:00am? everything is archived and can be viewed anytime
2008-10-06 22:21:55 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: Maybe we'll (parents) throw them a k-12 online party -- show that we support them!
2008-10-06 22:22:22 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: Doh.
2008-10-06 22:22:25 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: I knew that.
2008-10-06 22:22:28 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: @penny-great idea! do it :-) It would be fun!
2008-10-06 22:23:08 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: Anyone know when the fireside chats are going to be?
2008-10-06 22:23:19 [Message] penny -> -EdTechTalk: it is just really nervewracking as a parent to tread into that domain
2008-10-06 22:23:20 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: that's such a great point Dean! keep promoting everything!
2008-10-06 22:24:10 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: the fireside chat times aren't posted yet but will be soon
2008-10-06 22:24:57 [Message] DaveC -> -EdTechTalk: We're running into issues with allowing anyone in the classroom who hasn't been fingerprinted first due to FERPA.
