21:08:39 [Message] matt montagne -> -EdTechTalk: I think we've heard enough about that one in the mac rumors!
21:08:44 [Message] gsiemens -> -EdTechTalk: @matt - yeah, that would work too
21:08:57 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: http://thefischbowl.blogspot.com/2009/01/i-just-want-to-say-one-word-to-...
21:10:25 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: http://thefischbowl.blogspot.com/2009/01/i-just-want-to-say-one-word-to-...
21:10:58 [Message] gsiemens -> -EdTechTalk: someone's moving sounds like
21:11:06 [Message] gsiemens -> -EdTechTalk: and table dancing
21:11:28 [Message] matt montagne -> -EdTechTalk: I remember when "cooperative learning" was the buzz...
21:11:47 [Message] matt montagne -> -EdTechTalk: I like "collaboration." Quite different than cooperative learning
21:11:51 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: i iz illustrious
21:11:55 [Message] gsiemens -> -EdTechTalk: it's called global whining
21:12:04 [Message] gsiemens -> -EdTechTalk: that's all i do when i'm traveling and on twitter
21:12:25 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: I've noticed that
21:12:45 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: "it's so late" "the timezone is difficult"

21:18:00 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: under ETT A
21:18:20 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: george making sharon laugh

21:19:22 [Message] Cheri T -> -EdTechTalk: @Heyjud - try the blue icon under ed tech talk A
21:19:24 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: are you still hearing audio from my house?
21:19:27 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: tell them to come clean my place
21:19:42 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: I really liked getting The Daily to follow what was happening with the course. I was just a lurker.
21:19:51 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: well, only if you are multitasking in a most appreciated way
21:19:54 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: no fine now dave
21:20:00 [Message] anachorete -> -EdTechTalk: hi helen ;-)))))
21:20:17 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: @mrsdurff thanks, I'm on now with audio
21:20:18 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: We are good now.
21:20:23 [Message] helenabaert -> -EdTechTalk: Hey. What's this all about?
21:20:24 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: I'm not hearing background sound
21:20:32 [Message] DianeHammond -> -EdTechTalk: I thought it was just my brain on overload :-)
21:20:41 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: sharon could come clean anyway
21:20:44 [Message] celeste -> -EdTechTalk: was fuzzy and going in and out for just a moment
21:20:55 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: Maybe it is cognitive overload
21:21:29 [Message] anachorete -> -EdTechTalk: @helen audio comes from the icons on the right 1st=itunes etc...
21:22:06 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: the noises in the background remind me about a cricket that once undermined the ETT Weekly show (turns out it was in Jeff's basement) it was loud and very funny at the time
21:22:18 [Message] helenabaert -> -EdTechTalk: My sound doesn't appear to work!
21:22:55 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: it's really helpful to me to hear those divergent points of view
21:23:52 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: good debate thrives on criticism and divergent points of view
21:23:57 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: In a network world - everyone has an opinion - be ready to back it up - or be challenged
21:24:07 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: I am using the audio from real time - http://edtechtalk.com/listen - on one page and have this open in another
21:24:21 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: but bad behavioiur online is bad behaviour anywhere
21:24:31 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: so diplomatic she is
21:24:32 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: I think we have to look at our own walls in this
21:24:59 [Message] anachorete -> -EdTechTalk: @helen for mac use the 1st for windows use 3rd (wmediaplayer?)
21:25:02 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: negativism can be distructive, though difference of opinion doesn't have to adopt negativism
21:25:12 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: Great point - it depends on the audience, enivonment, and goals of the "group"
21:25:27 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: I like the "push back" --there has been a fair amount to stir my thinking
21:25:34 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: in very open environments I think each person has to take responsibility for their own learning and responses to people with bad behavior online
21:25:44 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: adults? you're calling me an adult?
21:26:00 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: may a dult?
21:26:01 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: Is "bad" just a different perspective?
21:26:24 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: @durff i would go so far as to call you an 'adult'
21:26:26 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: no I think bad was rudeness
21:26:35 [Message] helenabaert -> -EdTechTalk: no, there is a problem with my sound system on my laptop. Been bugging me for awhile now. Have to keep restarting the computer. Anoying!
21:26:45 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: (I don't know what the circumstances were, so my comments may not be relevant)
21:26:45 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: i'm happy at 12 yrs of age
21:27:05 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: Only open minds can change. Trying to convince closed minded people is a waste of time and energy
21:27:10 [Message] DianeHammond -> -EdTechTalk: In a world of
21:28:01 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: or the "need" for power in a group of adults. Disruptive vs. different in terms of discourse.
21:28:28 [Message] DianeHammond -> -EdTechTalk: In a world of "pull" how can you kick someone out? Their tags are going to intrude, enter the network?
21:28:29 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: hi vinnie
21:28:31 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: Is em"power"ment the exercise of power on oneself?
21:28:33 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: I think there's a difference between criticizing the content/perspective and criticizing the person
21:28:58 [Message] VinnieVrotny -> -EdTechTalk: Happy New Years All!
21:29:15 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: HI Vinnie, Happy New Year to you too!
21:29:24 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: I was in a closed elliminate session this week where people in the chat room were very critical of the presenter
21:29:33 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: @PeggyG Do rude people cross that line between criticizing content vs person line?
21:29:43 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: "disruption that causes us to think" :)
21:29:47 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: I think so
21:30:05 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: there is no content
21:30:07 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: :)
21:30:18 [Message] gsiemens -> -EdTechTalk: that's why i like dave cormier
21:30:25 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: he is content free
21:30:27 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: by content I mean ideas
21:30:34 [Message] gsiemens -> -EdTechTalk: heh
21:30:38 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: style differences?
21:30:41 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: delivery?
21:30:47 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: An aha! Maybe it is the same syndrome as the behind the wheel of a car.Some people often act different in the anonymity of the car shield - maybe the same thing occurs behind the anonymity of the avatar or username.
21:30:51 [Message] VinnieVrotny -> -EdTechTalk: sorry to be late, but who is the guest tonight?
21:30:57 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: online dating i think
21:30:59 [Message] Cheri T -> -EdTechTalk: George Siemens
21:31:02 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: please explain more of the attributes of connectivism
21:31:09 [Message] VinnieVrotny -> -EdTechTalk: @CheriT - thanks
21:31:16 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: :)
21:31:17 [Message] VinnieVrotny -> -EdTechTalk: thought it may be
21:31:24 [Message] DianeHammond -> -EdTechTalk: Makes you wonder how you can "control" your network.
21:31:43 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: @DianeHammond i don't think the sentence even makes sense in this context
21:31:48 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: Grrat question, Sharon
21:31:49 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: Amazing live talk by George from a distance learning conference - his view on connectisivism - http://mediasite.ics.uwex.edu/pyle4/Viewer/Viewers/Viewer320TL.aspx?mode...
21:31:51 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: Ha!
21:31:53 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: they're almost opposites
21:32:26 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: this is a great point
21:32:39 [Message] celeste -> -EdTechTalk: wish I could stay longer... will check back for more good discussion next time
21:32:49 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: if it's just a question of being 'given' the answer... that's collecting
21:33:06 [Message] DianeHammond -> -EdTechTalk: @guest478 I didn't explain my self. Sorry, thinking in my head and with my fingers doesn't always work :-9
21:33:07 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: bye Celeste
21:33:26 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: learning creates confusion
21:33:29 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: Yikes!
21:33:30 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: @DianneHammond and my response reads more 'critical' than i meant it
21:33:43 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: I thinki know that i don't know that I know what I know, you know?
21:33:48 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: the struggle of figuring out and understanding is learning - its tough work
21:34:02 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: Dr. Ottenheimer did not offer any answers. He did not even help me discover my own answers. Instead, he helped me find questions I had never asked before. The answers to such questions were just more questions. And so he launched me on a lifelong quest, question after question after question. Michael Wesch, 2008 US Professional of the Year
21:34:13 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: I had a much clearer sense of what i didn't know after the connectivism course
21:34:20 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: Did you invent the internet George?
21:34:23 [Message] helenabaert -> -EdTechTalk: Will try to restart comp so I can listen in!
21:34:38 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: No Al Gore invented the internet
21:34:45 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: Yo am.
21:34:47 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: Teacher, cormier is bugging me...
21:34:57 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: dave you know he invented it
21:35:15 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: @jan smith I think i may have heard that befiore
21:35:38 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: I know you have heard it before. Your students say it all the time
21:35:42 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: Hi all!
21:36:11 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: @jansmith that is a great quote!
21:36:13 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: the students that cry in dave's class say that
21:36:14 [Message] Nancy Caramanico -> -EdTechTalk: I seem to have lost the audio. I'll check out the podcast. Many thanks!
21:36:18 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: educators role is to provide multiplicty of perspectives

21:38:18 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: i will be.
21:38:18 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: that must have been fascinating to hear the perspectives on connectivism from so many different countries!
21:38:23 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: if we are all working in a networked world, why would it surprise you that we are aware, involved, or interested in the course around the world?
21:38:30 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: the power of the network - i've learned so much from my PLN this past year
21:38:36 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: it's interesting to hear that you are surprised :-)
21:38:45 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: I watched some recorded keynotes by George - the audience argued with him that teachers need to LECTURE the content.
21:39:16 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: As opposed to reading it?
21:39:23 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: @jackie wow. were they U level?
21:39:38 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: @ColetteC- A second that! It is amazing!
21:39:39 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: @James Ha! :)
21:39:47 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: not being the source threatens a lot of established teachers
21:40:02 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: some voices are louder than others
21:40:23 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: For so many teacher I work with - it freaks them out!
21:40:27 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: But then I could not long be Master of the Universe if I gave up my power at the front the room
21:40:29 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: That is not all bad!
21:40:34 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: Hmmm, my kids tell me I'm wrong all the time.
21:40:55 [Message] LindaN -> -EdTechTalk: Knowing versus learning.
21:41:13 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: Oh yeah! Netbooks will be great!
21:41:27 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: I sense the dark side entering the room
21:41:30 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: Is theothermrsdurff really Cormier?
21:41:34 [Message] theothermrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: speaking of netbooks...
21:41:34 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: and we appreciate the time you fellows spent on the course!
21:41:40 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: They were college teachers - the one I remember most distinctly - http://mediasite.ics.uwex.edu/pyle4/Viewer/Viewers/Viewer320TL.aspx?mode...

21:43:07 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: The "it is possible" is one of the reasons I love teaching with technology - offers so much possibility

21:45:14 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: :)
21:45:47 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: Connecting online gives everyone to find someone in their "group" who shares their ideas, opinions - or also a place to debate
21:45:58 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: It is a mindset issue not a capacity issue
21:46:01 [Message] AndYetAnotherDurff -> -EdTechTalk: what some see as opportunity, many see a problem

21:47:24 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: It's interesting how many have touted that great ideas and design have come out of times of economic downturn - maybe the focus is on design and being innovative - instead of $$
21:47:37 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: giving us over to cloud computing
21:48:00 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: Went to a talk this afternoon in Second Life "Possible, probable, and preferable futures of Education in Virtual Worlds" An heated discussion occurred regarding pedagogy - the question being "does a new pedagogy need to evolve given the new technologies?
21:48:18 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: True, the institution of school resists reform and unfortunately it may take crash before we can rebuild it.
21:48:28 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: Can you give a simple ex. of cloud computing, please?
21:48:36 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: I hope I'm wrong

21:49:27 [Message] matt montagne -> -EdTechTalk: I've felt that way for a while, George...no reason a school should b investing in expensive LAN storage systems...
21:49:37 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: and the means of production... if you'll forgive the Marx
21:49:39 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: what about accountability in PD?
21:49:46 [Message] matt montagne -> -EdTechTalk: A big fat pipe is all that is needed...
21:49:51 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: Pedagogy first then the technology - What is good pedagogy?
21:49:56 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: @Jan if the processor is as fast as the internet connection, then it would be just as fast to load the software from the internet as from the computer.
21:50:06 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: panic for me.
21:50:14 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: Professional Development is key! It has to be done right!
21:50:16 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: it was the panic of having 275 writing students
21:50:33 [Message] BronSt -> -EdTechTalk: Who is the moderator - lovely voice?
21:50:38 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: Pedagogy needs to be the visions of the entire staff - the admins need to create an environment of learning among teachers - just like teachers do with their students
21:50:58 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: It is the WIFM factor?
21:51:11 [Message] howmanydurffsarethere? -> -EdTechTalk: kids learn if they find value in it
21:51:13 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: student engagement through technology was my motivation
21:51:17 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: @Jackie Bloom's higher level learning, Marzano's research-based principles.
21:51:17 [Message] glovely -> -EdTechTalk: trust, permission to take risks and an environment of learning as THE most important thing... that is what we need
21:51:23 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: @BronSt the lovely Sharon Peters
21:51:26 [Message] helenabaert -> -EdTechTalk: @coletteC is that even possible - visions of the entire staff congruent?
21:51:47 [Message] howmanydurffsarethere? -> -EdTechTalk: big difference btwn learning and passing the test
21:52:02 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: @congruent? Maybe - but moving forward - learning & discussing - have goals to work for
21:52:24 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: threatening is better than bribing
21:52:32 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: I would like to see connectivism analysed in much more detail in a school
21:52:40 [Message] matt montagne -> -EdTechTalk: someone was lementing that their school has had Mel Levine in to speak like 6 times over the years, and nothing really has changed...
21:52:45 [Message] gsiemens -> -EdTechTalk: @heyjude - yes
21:52:48 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: ( there are never enough durffs to go around)
21:52:53 [Message] gsiemens -> -EdTechTalk: i would like to do a connectivism and k-12 course
21:52:56 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: school and uni is different in a variety of ways
21:53:03 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: The stick is better than the carrot? Kohn?
21:53:04 [Message] howmanydurffsarethere? -> -EdTechTalk: you have demonstrated your belief in that dave
21:53:35 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: my network is me
21:53:46 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: @Heyjude - love to see professional learning groups examine connectivism - as a powerful learning tool for themselves as professions and for their students
21:53:49 [Message] glovely -> -EdTechTalk: if teacher don't value their own learning, how can we expect themt o value student learning?
21:53:53 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: the network is the carrot, but still some won't bit.
21:54:00 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: *bite
21:54:17 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: PD - its all about creating an environment of learning. Why do teachers still feel like they don't need to be lifelong learners
21:54:40 [Message] Nancy Caramanico -> -EdTechTalk: championing the teacher as life long learner - The school's vision is key
21:54:42 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: removing fear is motivating
21:54:42 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: Pondering what conversations would be like if we taught teachers to read feeds, comment on blogs, share links, and connect weekly like we all do...imagine what would come of it...and it is FREE PD!
21:55:11 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: @Jan the network is more like that feast than the carrot. It can bring us real nourishment, not just a treat.
21:55:18 [Message] kcaise -> -EdTechTalk: very good point @angelamaiers
21:55:24 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: I create motivation in my class by having an authentic audience - how do we recreate that for teachers - i believe they haven't seen the power of the PLN yet
21:55:25 [Message] jeffmason -> -EdTechTalk: 15 minutes a day
21:55:27 [Message] BronSt -> -EdTechTalk: Teachers need to feel valued and to feel that their own learning is important and crticial to the quality and vision
21:55:28 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: @angela - those practices should be the same ones used in teacher education programs
21:55:29 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: I think we may be our own worst enemies here--do you colleagues think you spend too much time on this?
21:55:39 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: @ColetteC--any why do teachers feel they need to be paid for their learning time outside of the school day? :-(
21:55:40 [Message] LindaN -> -EdTechTalk: I think that for many teachers- evaluation of their teaching negates their belief in learning, trying new things, letting others know that they don't know everything.
21:55:48 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: Yes-absolutely!
21:55:52 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: teachers are their own worse enemies LOL
21:56:11 [Message] howmanydurffsarethere? -> -EdTechTalk: "i don't have time" & "i'm not interested"
21:56:12 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: I think teachers have had so much bad PD, they are weary
21:56:18 [Message] Nancy Caramanico -> -EdTechTalk: bronst, agreed
21:56:20 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: @Peggy because they don't feel their time is valued
21:56:22 [Message] Jackie G -> -EdTechTalk: Just In time vis Just In Case professional development
21:56:25 [Message] glovely -> -EdTechTalk: would we have non-bike riders teach others to ride bikes? We need to help teachers rediscover the thrill of learning!
21:56:32 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: and if teaching doesn't demand us to do/learn something new, then it doesn't happen
21:56:37 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: change schools
21:56:40 [Message] LindaN -> -EdTechTalk: too many new programs mandated without any PD
21:56:43 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: change learning
21:56:49 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: We have had much PD esp tech pd without true follow up, in time support
21:56:49 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: I agree Gail
21:56:52 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: teachers will have to go with the change then
21:57:14 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: I think the best interview question for hiring a new teacher should be-Tell me something you have learned recently...the answer is more important than their resume
21:57:15 [Message] glovely -> -EdTechTalk: a shared vision about goals is a HUGE key!
21:57:17 [Message] BronSt -> -EdTechTalk: Teachers commit lots of hours online but not to their own learning - much is researching student value
21:57:24 [Message] LindaN -> -EdTechTalk: Yes, follow through, just-in time learning and support is needed.
21:57:30 [Message] howmanydurffsarethere? -> -EdTechTalk: butchering is too kind
21:57:32 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: The most valuable resource in the classroom for teachers is time. The the "Free PD" worth the time spent?
21:57:45 [Message] glovely -> -EdTechTalk: no such thing as free
21:57:54 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: I'm free :)
21:57:57 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: my webcasting that is
21:58:03 [Message] Cheri T -> -EdTechTalk: mentoring seems to be the most effective in many settings
21:58:09 [Message] glovely -> -EdTechTalk: but time has costs.
21:58:11 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: although... i suppose... you are stuck with my commentary
21:58:25 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: @glovely not in my world
21:58:27 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: Forced PD=failure for most teachers
21:58:33 [Message] glovely -> -EdTechTalk: most effective PD I provide is in the classrooms of teachers with their kids and their tech.
21:58:33 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: @glovely not all of it.
21:58:58 [Message] glovely -> -EdTechTalk: during their day
21:59:20 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: in economics, we exchange time for $ ($/hr). Is teacher time more valuable than $?
21:59:25 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: even better if I don't have to leave home!
21:59:28 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: The online content also needs the social network around it to make it successful
21:59:30 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: The issue is not time-it is how the time is spent-teachers will spend hours correcting fill in the blank worksheets or cutting out laminated bulliten board icons, but will back at doing anything with theory or pedagogy
21:59:41 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: @glovely--- is there research to support that model? It seems logical
21:59:53 [Message] BronSt -> -EdTechTalk: Waving from Australia
22:00:08 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: waving back
22:00:12 [Message] Nancy Caramanico -> -EdTechTalk: glovely-shared vision goes a long way. Teacher buy in and support.
22:00:15 [Message] matt montagne -> -EdTechTalk: wonderful talk tonight Sharon, Cheri and George...
22:00:17 [Message] Heyjude -> -EdTechTalk: wow, I didn't know that, and I'm from Australia!
22:00:27 [Message] matt montagne -> -EdTechTalk: Great stuff...I really enjoyed it...
22:00:28 [Message] glovely -> -EdTechTalk: hmmm not sure about research - am doing it now (well, tomorrow) and have been doing it for some time. - nearly all (>90% report higher levels of tech use and comfort)
22:00:57 [Message] BronSt -> -EdTechTalk: Tertiary education - International students are bread and butter
22:01:09 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: @glovely I am pushing in my district for this model.
22:01:58 [Message] glovely -> -EdTechTalk: @jan I believe in it... wish I had research to back it up.
22:02:00 [Message] Nancy Caramanico -> -EdTechTalk: thanks to all.

22:02:33 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: hey!
22:02:38 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: @angela exactly! Teachers only have so much time. They must choose how they spend it. Grading worksheets and preparing bulletin boards or PLN and higher level thinking projects?
22:02:39 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: @glovely thank you :)
22:02:40 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: everyone listens to this!
22:02:59 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: everyone who?
22:03:17 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: all those mrsdurffs out there for instance

22:04:00 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: i like my name

22:04:32 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: ( I wasn't talking about that--:) It was about instructional technologist
22:04:37 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: netbooks may a computer to every desktop to reality. It was thought impossible 20 years ago.
22:04:43 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: bribery will get you everywhere
22:04:56 [Message] LindaN -> -EdTechTalk: Thank you all for a great discussion tonight.
22:05:09 [Message] Gary -> -EdTechTalk: Textbook companies may be the big push-back. School districts could create their own texts.
22:05:36 [Message] BronSt -> -EdTechTalk: We have to stop bagging teachers and build up their professional status!
22:05:49 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: I so agree with the point about the futility of sequencing content at the university--but the system demands it which goes back to the original point of the need for systemic change
22:06:11 [Message] Cheri T -> -EdTechTalk: students need to be re-educated also
22:06:20 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: @Gary true, textbook and testing companies can either be a major detractor or a major help. Either way, their role will change.
22:06:24 [Message] Cheri T -> -EdTechTalk: many of them don't want the responsibility that comes along with the power
22:07:31 [Message] angelamaiers -> -EdTechTalk: Hate to go-this is great conversation tonight! Have a good one all!
22:07:35 [Message] Gary -> -EdTechTalk: It seems that new text books with their on-line components are less useful than the older ones - the links seem to be irrelevant.
22:07:36 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: You mean it is easier to learn in a class than to teach in it? The power shifts
22:07:40 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: i think george is paranoid... no one would taunt him.
22:07:56 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: :)
22:08:03 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: is this the 1 1/2 hour show?
22:08:03 [Message] BronSt -> -EdTechTalk: treat teachers as the professionals they are and value them and they will be motivated to take up new professional practices
22:08:06 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: Students already work around the educational system
22:08:11 [Message] jan smith -> -EdTechTalk: maybe just one...
22:08:16 [Message] gsiemens -> -EdTechTalk: @durff - sorry, I talk too much
22:08:45 [Message] mrsdurff -> -EdTechTalk: i didn't say that, guest did
22:08:57 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: @gary true, for textbook companies this see the print textbook as the foundation and the online component just a suppliment
22:09:08 [Message] gsiemens -> -EdTechTalk: yeah dave!
22:09:09 [Message] ColetteC -> -EdTechTalk: Thank you George - great discussions tonight
22:09:11 [Message] guest478 -> -EdTechTalk: :D

22:10:31 [Message] BronSt -> -EdTechTalk: good afternoon from Aus
22:10:48 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: @Gary yes our science and social studies publishers' sites are basically irrelevent.
22:11:47 [Message] Gary -> -EdTechTalk: @James - I am recently retired but the new "texts" seem almost useless with regards to their "tech" parts.
22:12:40 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: They don't get it. The books should be digital and open. That way we are just paying for the content, not the publishing.
22:13:20 [Message] Gary -> -EdTechTalk: That may be why teachers may "write" their own based on the curriculum they are to teach.
22:13:22 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: It would reduce their expense, but it would also reduce their revenues.
22:13:57 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: Agreed, We may just have to write our own open textbooks
22:14:25 [Message] Gary -> -EdTechTalk: Good conversation - good night!
22:14:38 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: You're retired now Gary. You can write them for us right. :)
22:14:54 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: Great show
22:15:30 [Message] Gary -> -EdTechTalk: Actually I am spending a great deal of time in the classroom - subbing and doing work for teachers in training.
22:15:38 [Message] Gary -> -EdTechTalk: Fun!
22:15:58 [Message] James Sigler -> -EdTechTalk: sound like it, enjoyed the conversation, g'night
