From ETT's cousin site EFLBridges.net a discussion with Mike Marzio of Real-English.com and Sarah Lilburn of The Daily English Show about their use of video, new media, and social netorking in providing materials for learning English as a Foreign Language

As EdechWeekly begins its summer hiatus, we go on air for an EdTechHangout.  

Topics covered include NECC reflections, why Dave uses coarsesalt as his Skype ID,  Albertan scorpions,  deep sea ducks, roadkill mooseburgers,  Michael Jackson  overload,  getting to EdTech Step#1, proprietary keynotes,  teachers as lame presenters,  back channel literacy, concerns, & ettiquette,  multitasking challenges,  & possibilities for upcoming EdTechTalk Summer Specials. 

Between John's field trip to NECC and Dave's (alleged) poor internet connection, Jen & Jeff never quite got started with a fast paced roundup of news and resources. Fortunately, we were joined by Steve Kossakoski of VLACS (NH's first Virtual High School) and had a great discussion about  how things are going at VLACS in particular and the challenges and possibilities for virtual education in general.  Also,  John called in from the Blogger's Cafe at NECC and we were able to speak with him, Lisa Parisi, and Vinny Vrotny about Edubloggercon'09. 

We wish John all the best in his upcoming travels and we will miss him as he visits Africa with the good folks from Teachers without Borders - see http://www.teacherswithoutborders.org/. Catch the recording of our last full crew episode for the next several weeks here - http://edtechtalk.com/EdTechWeekly133, but join us next Sunday night at 7:00 ET for our next live show covering all the latest news and resources in education and technology.

First time host / long time contributor, John Rundag joins John, Jeff, and Jen to discuss the latest news and resources in education and technology.
