| charbeck1 | Ah the power of selling to the youth. I guess it works:D |
| charbeck1 | Are they going to spend 600 per iphone |
| charbeck1 | This is the way 8th grade is meant to be! I can get some info out of my kids in blogs but this program is excellent! |
| sharonp | Hi Cheryl, are you there? |
| cheryloakes wow2 | just getting things started. |
| sharonp | okay |
| dave | hi cheryl |
| sharonp | Vicki can't see you and was getting nervous |
| dave | and jeff |
| dave | and sharon |
| dave | and dave |
| dave | oh wait |
| dave | that's me |
| dave | hi me. |
| sharonp | :waves |
| sharonp | what is the code for this silly chat rooom? |
| cheryloakes wow2 | hello, everyone |
| cheryloakes wow2 | sharon you are in the tappedin mode |
| cheryloakes wow2 | hello kathy |
| sendkathy | Hi! |
| coolcatteacher | Hello everyone! |
| charbeck1 | Hello everyone. |
| coolcatteacher | OK, I'm thinking about using flock - who says I should switch? |
| charbeck1 | It is not as good as Firefox |
| cheryloakes wow2 | must got get headphones brb |
| coolcatteacher | We'll have to ask our guests tonight - they really like it for research. |
| charbeck1 | Flock has some great features but it was unable to connect to beta blogger |
| charbeck1 | There are alot of addons for Firefox that make it like Flock |
| sendkathy | like what? |
| charbeck1 | flickrfox is like the photo bar across the top |
| coolcatteacher | I like firefox a lot. |
| coolcatteacher | I like the google bar at the type and also hyperwords which will make anything searchable. |
| charbeck1 | The bookmarks are now integrated into firefox. |
| charbeck1 | Ilke cooliris |
| coolcatteacher | And you can make them live also. |
| charbeck1 | it previews all links |
| coolcatteacher | So, Chris, you tried both of them? |
| charbeck1 | I haven't used flock since 2.0firefox came out |
| sendkathy | I'll have to install these, extensions I assume? |
| coolcatteacher | yes, hyperwords is an extension. |
| charbeck1 | Yes the mozilla page is easy to use and it takes seconds to update |
| coolcatteacher | I just like the spellcheck built into Firefox 2, that is not an extension. |
| coolcatteacher | I also use Greasemonkey to automatically add Technorati tags to my bloggers posts. |
| cheryloakes wow2 | Jeff or dave I am ready with the stream, to try |
| coolcatteacher | That is an extension. I also use cocommenter and google Open Notebook. |
| JL | shall I turn off 'the girls of web 2.0'? |
| cheryloakes wow2 | please and thanks |
| sharonp | Firefox is easy to update UNLESS your school banned it and killed the exe file and now you are using Firefox under a different name (renaming the exe file) |
| JL | the stream is yours |
| sendkathy | ha ha |
| charbeck1 | Hi Cheryl I really apperciate all you do on tuesdays after Saturdays skype adventure. have you ever used a Private skypecast? |
| sharonp | greasemonkey |
| cheryloakes wow2 | thanks Chris |
| sharonp | hmmm |
| sharonp | will have to look at that |
| cheryloakes wow2 | no, waht is private skypcast? |
| JL | sounds good Cheryl |
| charbeck1 | You can set a password to allow only the people you want into the skype |
| charbeck1 | Keeps the "other people"out |
| sendkathy | Do you mean pw for a skypecast or skype call? Is this just a conference call or a skypecast too? |
| sharonp | cool - we don't have to pay for a private skypecast |
| coolcatteacher | Cool. A private skypecast. |
| coolcatteacher | I like that idea. |
| sendkathy | much safer |
| coolcatteacher | When did that happen. |
| charbeck1 | I mean skypecast. I was doing a skypecast onsaturday and had up to 20 hang ons during the cast |
| Cheri T | are we skyping too? |
| cheryloakes wow2 | wow chris, that is amazing |
| cheryloakes wow2 | nno skypecast tonight, we will only do the skypecast 1 time a month |
| charbeck1 | It comes with the new mic!! |
| dave | ah... a chat room |
| Cheri T | okee dokee |
| dave | dave likes chatrooms |
| sendkathy | how is that going? |
| dave | maine? |
| sendkathy | What is the response from parents? |
| coolcatteacher | IT hasn't filtered to the parents yet, but the students are VERY excited. |
| coolcatteacher | I am the test teacher, we are seeing if we can do it school wide. |
| dave | one needs to be able to expresss themselves |
| dave | chatrooms are nice |
| Cheri T | hi everyone |
| cheryloakes wow2 | hello all, we are still getting ready |
| charbeck1 | That is in the chat sharron. |
| alicebarr | AHHHHH! IT WAS SO BAD! |
| dave | oh... no... who would do that? |
| cheryloakes wow2 | right alice |
| charbeck1 | When You use the audio button |
| dave | welcome |
| charbeck1 | beside the docking button |
| Cheri T | you've got mail ... |
| dave | lo |
| dave | l |
| sendkathy | Vicki, how much time does it take to edit and post? |
| coolcatteacher | I'm not editing, I did the first few but now I'm recording the intro so I can post directly. |
| coolcatteacher | I may just go to two of the classes and not all of them, but for now I'm trying them all. |
| coolcatteacher | I have an iRiver to post around my neck. |
| charbeck1 | Pc's are for skypeing |
| coolcatteacher | iRiver hangs around my neck not posts around my neck! |
| charbeck1 | blots? |
| dave | INTRO |
| dave | those guys are cool |
| dave | joyce... greetings. |
| coolcatteacher | What is a blog, Chris? |
| sharonp | very cool Vicki - how much do you talk duirng one class? |
| Jeanne | Hello, everyone! |
| dave | blog... |
| coolcatteacher | It depends sometimes 5 minutes sometimes WE talk for 50 minutes. |
| dave | hi jeanne |
| coolcatteacher | Not just me. |
| joycevalenza | hi dave and all! |
| lee | hi all |
| sendkathy | Vicki, when you have a conversation, how does the iriver do picking up the room noise or other speakers? |
| coolcatteacher | It picks ME up very well, it picks up the students reasonably well. |
| cathyn from SC | cost of iriver? |
| coolcatteacher | $40 |
| dave | icky dreamweaver |
| coolcatteacher | It is out of stock at Circuit City right now. |
| coolcatteacher | It was very popular and has a built in mike. |
| sroseman | I am depressed with no snow!!! |
| Jeanne | Vicki, I have wondered about privacy issues for the kids when you record class. |
| cathyn from SC | good point |
| dave | always a big issue |
| cheryloakes wow2 | hello and me too susan, looking for snowflakes |
| coolcatteacher | It is always an issue. |
| dave | depends on what you mean by privacy i suppose |
| coolcatteacher | We only use first names. |
| cheryloakes wow2 | teachersteachingteachers.org |
| coolcatteacher | I told them no full names. |
| Jeanne | My 7th graders need "redirecting" all the time. |
| sroseman | our ski trip was cancelled to Quebec was cancelled, Cheryl |
| cheryloakes wow2 | yeah! |
| cheryloakes wow2 | for the nomination |
| cathyn from SC | are you just great, or have you picked up unwanted things, like discipline issues? |
| cheryloakes wow2 | too bad for Quebec, I am ready to go out west, Denver |
| Jeanne | I was wondering about discipline |
| lee | thanks cheryl! |
| sroseman | However, I am going to Snowmass in March |
| coolcatteacher | Oh, you hear me talking to students and dealing w/ issues but I don't call names and actually, they behave BETTER when recording. |
| coolcatteacher | A lot better. |
| coolcatteacher | I will record even if I don't post from now on. |
| dave | yes... the chatting is very nice |
| coolcatteacher | You can listen at coolcatteacher.podomatic.com |
| cathyn from SC | but will the novelty of it wear off |
| sharonp | http://www.teachersteachingteachers.org/ |
| coolcatteacher | http://coolcatteacher.podomatic.com |
| coolcatteacher | It will wear off. |
| cheryloakes wow2 | i think the newness will wear off, but they will raise the bar themselves. |
| cathyn from SC | i hate to be pessimistic, but i can see my principal saying she doesn't wnat this to show up in a courtroom |
| coolcatteacher | That is how many are. |
| coolcatteacher | Mine said, we want you to test it. |
| coolcatteacher | Good teachers shouldn't be afraid. |
| cathyn from SC | true |
| SusanEttenheim | hi all |
| cheryloakes wow2 | no sound lee |
| joycevalenza | welcome susan |
| coolcatteacher | Dr. Tyson from Mabry Middle School does it with all of his classes - it was his idea. |
| coolcatteacher | He is a principal at a middle school in Georgia. |
| cathyn from SC | greetings all...i jut sort of jumped in |
| sharonp | university classes are doing this too and then uploading them to their cms 's |
| Jeanne | I have a new appreciation for the technicalities of hosting one of these. You all are awesome! |
| lee | ii am back |
| coolcatteacher | yeah, lee |
| coolcatteacher | I think good teachers are going to have to get used to the idea of being recorded. |
| coolcatteacher | It is coming. |
| dave | woohoo. |
| cheryloakes wow2 | thanks jeanne, you can do it too |
| cheryloakes wow2 | engaging lee, that is the critical step |
| charbeck1 | Someone has the darth vader breathing happening in the skype |
| cheryloakes wow2 | thanks chris |
| charbeck1 | For once it is not me Yeah |
| cheryloakes wow2 | hi cheri and durff |
| Jeanne | Chris, Could it be one of our visitors from Saturday? |
| Cheri T | hey cheryl |
| charbeck1 | They would be louder |
| Jeanne | true |
| dave | susan is cool |
| dave | yay susan |
| coolcatteacher | It is not me, I muted my mike and Darth is still there. |
| dave | susan will talk through anything! |
| coolcatteacher | That could be good or bad. |
| charbeck1 | You are an excellent pupil! |
| Durff | A parent today said to me that Study Skills (7th) has nothing to blogging. I disagree heartily. Any ideas how I gently address her concerns? |
| dave | ask the parent to try it |
| dave | and then ask them what they needed to know to do it |
| cheryloakes wow2 | ask the parent to come in and help out |
| charbeck1 | Show her the power of scribe notes at scribehalloffame.pbwiki.com |
| Durff | scribe notes...is that like Daily Scribe? |
| sharonp | does this happen in Canada, I wonder? |
| dave | just searching now |
| charbeck1 | yes. |
| Durff | ah, we just started that |
| charbeck1 | Sharon the source at Circuit city has the Iriver in the Peg!! |
| cheryloakes wow2 | thanks Paul for starting off |
| lee | no its not paul or lee |
| lee | breathing that is |
| cheryloakes wow2 | detective lee at work |
| charbeck1 | Scribing is the first part on the road to better note taking. That is study skills is it not? |
| dave | those worldbridges guys... never mind their own business |
| SusanEttenheim | I've just switched to a platronics mic that has a great mute and I can't recommend it enough |
| Durff | yes study skills |
| dave | invited herself! |
| cheryloakes wow2 | sounds great susan |
| dave | pushy! |
| SusanEttenheim | was a little expensive but love it |
| charbeck1 | You can also do summative projects dealing with the topics being taughts. soing it in 2.0 makes it more paletable to students |
| coolcatteacher | Blogging can be very useful. |
| dave | anyone ever tried using project management software in highschool... |
| Durff | hmmm...I also want to do wiki with another school |
| SusanEttenheim | hi coolcatteacher |
| dave | i've been thinking about trying it recently |
| lee | dave? |
| coolcatteacher | Hey, Susan. |
| charbeck1 | Durff your wiki would work as well for these summative projects and assignments |
| Durff | on 7th grade topics outside os my class |
| SusanEttenheim | project management for what? |
| Durff | okay, summative is good idea |
| coolcatteacher | Hey Vinnie! |
| charbeck1 | Why not. Use the skills they are learning in your class to make an electronic study guide |
| coolcatteacher | the scribe posts work very well. |
| dave | I've been thinking about trying to integrate workplace skills into classrooms recently... or, i should say... someone asked me about it |
| Durff | I think the parent was worried about the "MySpace" thing |
| dave | so project management, like, say, dotproject, to get students to work together and plan group projects |
| cheryloakes wow2 | affirm them, and tell them they should be a partner, that they should get a myspace so they can join their child |
| coolcatteacher | The wiki can sort of do the same thing - use the discussion tab. |
| charbeck1 | Get the parent to work with their student. I have found this very powerful. |
| Durff | we use blogmeister - they are great |
| coolcatteacher | Let them blog together. I started my kids that way. |
| Durff | these are very rigid type people |
| coolcatteacher | Can our guests drop the urls in the chat here? |
| dave | http://youthvoices.net |
| Durff | I don't think they would go near MySpace |
| dave | http://personallearningspace.com |
| dave | http://myspace.com |
| charbeck1 | You can also do summative projects dealing with the topics being taughts. soing it in 2.0 makes it more paletable to students |
| Jeanne | Durff, what do you teach? |
| cheryloakes wow2 | hey Deb |

| Durff | just not driver's ed |
| cheryloakes wow2 | durff you do it all |

| coolcatteacher | 500 reasons to join! Wow! |
| cheryloakes wow2 | i like that creating community |
| coolcatteacher | If people can make it through the first month. |
| charbeck1 | the power of community and audience is a powerful tool |
| coolcatteacher | I see some people put it up and quit rapidly b/c of the problems. |
| cheryloakes wow2 | sure thing chris |
| coolcatteacher | Teenage years are years to learn how to have conversations. Great! |
| dave | yes... audience is often underrated. |
| lee | do you have the link for our wiki Paul |
| charbeck1 | I listened to the grade 8 radio show before the WOW. It was great. More kids need to do activities like that. |
| lee | http://elggplans.wikispaces.com/ |
| cheryloakes wow2 | it must be exciting for some kids to find a cyber soul mate |
| Durff | I listened to the 8th grade kive |
| SusanEttenheim | yes that is really happening |
| Durff | the 6th graders I had loved it |
| sendkathy | see everyone next week gtg |

| coolcatteacher | I started that way, I'm ready to go past that. |
| Durff | we have |
| charbeck1 | back to your parental problems... what if they respond to some posts? |
| dave | mmm... truck. |
| Durff | now they comment on each others work |
| lee | 1966 F100 :) |
| coolcatteacher | Parents got involved in my blog early on, they loved it. |
| dave | i like hallloween |
| dave | Do you egg cars where on halloween? |
| dave | LOL |
| Durff | the kid of that parent just posted to the blog, so it must be worked out, or..... |
| Durff | some parents do love it |
| cheryloakes wow2 | yeah, you are making an impact, go durff |
| charbeck1 | first steps:D |
| Durff | and some are steeped in tradition |
| coolcatteacher | Welcome to the yo yo of Web 2 oh |
| dave | April 2003: Skype.com and Skype.net domain names registered |
| coolcatteacher | A lots of ups and downs. |
| Durff | we hope to start podcasting soon |
| dave | August 2003: First public beta version released |
| SusanEttenheim | it's hard to imagine a non skype world! |
| coolcatteacher | Great history, Dave. |
| dave | hee hee |
| cheryloakes wow2 | dave, where do you get these facts, wikipedia? |
| Durff | remember party lines? |
| dave | i like being in the chatroom |
| SusanEttenheim | how about hall phones? |
| SusanEttenheim | in college |
| cathyn from SC | will skype's baseline prog stay free? |
| dave | uh... no... i get them all in my... uh... head |
| cheryloakes wow2 | i thought of you during my boring one way meeting this week, dave. |
| coolcatteacher | Hall phones? |
| Durff | yeah, in college |
| dave | :) |
| Durff | remember typewriters? |
| dave | i'd like to teach a backchannel course someday |
| Durff | carbon paper? |
| cheryloakes wow2 | i am so there! |
| lee | nice |
| charbeck1 | Dave "cliff claburn" cormier!! |
| Durff | dittos? |
| SusanEttenheim | overheads |
| dave | i can't imagine being lee's district people |
| cheryloakes wow2 | dave, the history of back channel, whispers, notes in class,.... |
| cathyn from SC | had to revert to an overhead today--it was so dusty!! |
| Durff | now wait, I use overheads! |
| cheryloakes wow2 | there are times for overheads |
| Durff | I don't have a SmartBoard |
| dave | "oh my god... here she comes again... do you think she'll want to import iguanas this time? build a nuclear reactor?" |
| cathyn from SC | Promethan here |
| coolcatteacher | Roofs! :D |
| charbeck1 | Smart board is to small for a large room!! |
| Durff | too small? |
| coolcatteacher | Smartboard going in next week - Polyvision. |
| SusanEttenheim | the 77" is pretty big! |
| cathyn from SC | i find the board limiting too |
| cheryloakes wow2 | but for a small center, smartboard good for intereactive not whole group |
| Durff | we have a projector |
| coolcatteacher | A great teacher is the best equipment in a classroom. |
| SusanEttenheim | just hard to reach the top sometimes |
| coolcatteacher | Essential! |
| dave | moveable smart board helps |
| charbeck1 | I have a huge room and the board is too small for the kids to see. I need touse a projector so that They can see. |
| charbeck1 | I tend to be selling the show more that the computer anyways!! |
| SusanEttenheim | we use the projector on the smartboard |
| Durff | get a screen I have a window blind |
| cathyn from SC | i have a larger elecronic screen on the opposite wall and can project w/ a different projector that is mobile |
| charbeck1 | I use a large flat wall. |
| cathyn from SC | used a planety large falt walls at conferences |
| Durff | I have those church wall things |
| SusanEttenheim | moderating is hard work |
| cathyn from SC | plenty |
| charbeck1 | 12 feet by 8 feet. |
| coolcatteacher | Oh, bandwidth! |
| lee | yes. it is susan ..asking questions but not interfering |
| Durff | Everyone else in this chat room can speak too |
| coolcatteacher | Bandwidth and Control - BC - the two issues of BC! |
| joycevalenza | we can give the kids moderating responsibility at middle and hs levels |
| joycevalenza | they've taken that seriously |
| SusanEttenheim | definitely joyce and they love it |
| cheryloakes wow2 | i think once we've modeled the skype culture |
| coolcatteacher | Kids usually rise to the occasion. |
| Durff | we can't have cell phones |
| coolcatteacher | BUt you have to educate up front! |
| coolcatteacher | Skype is over the computer. |
| joycevalenza | i've not asked permission to do anything in a few years |
| cheryloakes wow2 | educate is critical |
| SusanEttenheim | our older students have moderated our chat room during an author visit and it was great |
| coolcatteacher | www.skype.com |
| SusanEttenheim | those students were great! and what a great tone you must have set to get them in! |
| Durff | I don't think our admin is ready for Skype yet |
| joycevalenza | yes, susan. i think it was very powerful for the moderators. we modeled very important skills |
| cheryloakes wow2 | you must state your goals and have a purpose, it is essential |
| SusanEttenheim | no admin is ever really ready for the symptom - just the disease! |
| lee | yes, i was there for that tooo.. how neat it was to have them "break in" |
| coolcatteacher | Be very clear and have accountability in the online environment. |
| lee | so true dave |
| Durff | admins deal with the symptoms, never the cause |
| coolcatteacher | yes, it does take a lot of planning! |
| lee | as is seen in our spacecast! |
| SusanEttenheim | yes transparency and clarity and purpose |
| lee | http://web.mac.com/lbaber/iWeb/SpaceCast/SpaceCast/SpaceCast.html |
| cheryloakes wow2 | googlenotebooks |
| Durff | what are they? |
| lee | http://www.google.com/notebook/fullpage#b=CaGEwpE6wpLg%2FBDSUDSwoQtqG357Yh |
| SusanEttenheim | it's like one notebook - but we can all write in it |
| lee | http://www.google.com/notebook/public/04358793573726113227/BDSUDSwoQtqG3... |
| cheryloakes wow2 | part of the google suite, google docs, spreadsheets, you must have a gmail acct. |
| SusanEttenheim | and add info |
| lee | sorry second one is pulic |
| lee | public |
| Durff | I use google docs |
| dave | i've been fighting with google docs for the last week |
| lee | http://www.google.com/notebook/user/04358793573726113227 |
| Durff | i don't have a gmail |
| dave | not super pleased with it |
| coolcatteacher | It is like delicious but easier to teach. |
| SusanEttenheim | why not dave? |
| coolcatteacher | I'm teaching my students to use it for their term paper research. |
| coolcatteacher | I like delicious but beginners can easily use google notebook. |
| charbeck1 | Do you want gmail durff. I would gladly sent you an invite. [email protected] |
| SusanEttenheim | google docs or notebook? |
| Durff | I used NoteStart for notecards online |
| Durff | NoteStar |
| coolcatteacher | Google docs is word processing - notebook is for clippings. |
| JenniferW | I can send you a gmail invite too === [email protected] |
| cheryloakes wow2 | JENN, hi |

| lee | sorry.. vicki.. |
| alicebarr | Does every student have their own gmail account? |
| cathyn from SC | don't you have to have another email acct to get a gmail? |
| alicebarr | Or can you invite them to be part of the Notebook through another way? |
| Durff | i have students where parents will not allow them to have email |
| cathyn from SC | me too |
| JenniferW | epals provides email -- |
| JenniferW | as does gaggle.net |
| JenniferW | just a couple of alternatives |
| cathyn from SC | gaggle costs and needs approval by admin doesn't it |
| cathyn from SC | im such the subversive |
| JenniferW | I believe there is a cost for the advanced version |
| cheryloakes wow2 | there is a free part of gaggle, and yes approval by admin |
| JenniferW | let me check |
| coolcatteacher | Wow! |
| coolcatteacher | This is so exciting! |
| lee | alice, i just use my email for them |
| JenniferW | http://www.gaggle.net/paid_gaggle.html#free |
| alicebarr | Lee thanks |
| JenniferW | free -- but wth ads |
| lee | they dont hve to have an email necessarily |
| cathyn from SC | hmmm use my own |
| coolcatteacher | Incredible! |
| lee | if you can share a space.. for ex. they can use an email you create and a classroom password |
| lee | and all use that notebook |
| cathyn from SC | ;D |
| cheryloakes wow2 | or create one gmail account with your email, i created one today for my jhs called [email protected] |
| lee | usually everyone has up to five emails given them with any isp |
| cathyn from SC | what an excllent idea!!! |
| lee | i created one for that purpose |
| coolcatteacher | You can get free domain hosting for your domain at gmail and give it to the kids too. |
| cathyn from SC | o the possibilities--and i was getting depressed |
| coolcatteacher | Oh, exciting! |
| cathyn from SC | thanks for the high note |
| cheryloakes wow2 | keep going cathyn |
| cathy e | Dave, you are so smart!! |
| SusanEttenheim | go dave!!!!! |
| JenniferW | no worries cathryn -- you are not alone......we all have been there -- or are there now -- |
| lee | we have to be careful since we cant open most mail programs from school so having to verify email means i need to use something i can open from the school comp lab |
| cathyn from SC | i just feel suddenly like i was given some latitude |
| cheryloakes wow2 | not second learning, but real learning! Nice vicki |
| Durff | there are 55 people online! |
| SusanEttenheim | lee what do you do about accounts? |
| sroseman | sounds so innovative |
