21:21:14 [Message] anabuckmaster -> -EdTechTalk: ppl think they are 2 different things

21:36:40 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: we have a new router and I was wondering if it let me down!!

21:36:41 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: So what was the established definition for literacy?

21:36:42 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: phew

21:36:45 [Message] dlaufenberg -> -EdTechTalk: teaching kids how to think is tough.  especially after they have been through the culture of 'one right answer' standardized testing

21:36:47 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: We have gotten a LOT of compliments on Ryan's conversation on WOW2   :)

21:36:55 [Message] VinnieVrotny -> -EdTechTalk: too bad text only. Will be anxiously awaiting upload

21:36:56 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: SCAMPER....Substitute, Combine, Modify, Adapt, ...

21:37:07 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: thanks Mike!

21:37:47 [Message] sendkathy -> -EdTechTalk: I loved the Ryan B show!

21:37:58 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: and one more compliment   :)

21:38:35 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: Perseverance is one of Angela's strongest Habitudes.  She continues to amaze me w/ her endurance

21:38:42 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: teachers will definitely understand the habitudes--they will just want to know how to incorporate them into their teaching on top of everything else

21:38:44 [Message] derrallg -> -EdTechTalk: must be talking to Lee Kolbert

21:38:55 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: @sendkathy - i like that ... the Ryan B Show

21:39:29 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: Peggy...one thing I steal from Angela is Name it, Claim it, Sustain it (and teachers need to Model it)

21:39:34 [Message] sendkathy -> -EdTechTalk: lol take it on the road!

21:39:48 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: He needs an Ed McMahon

21:39:53 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: volunteers?

21:39:54 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: That is such a great quote from Angela! I have stolen it too :-)

21:39:55 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: Web 2.0...yuck.

21:39:57 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: Any questions, comments, clarifications??

21:40:00 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: for Ryan

21:40:03 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: so when you teach/see the habitudes...name it, let the student claim it, teach 'em how to sustain it

21:40:06 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: talk about collaboration ... that would be it

21:40:11 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: Web 2.0 -- who would EVER use that in their name??    :)

21:40:24 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: exactly Jen!

21:40:27 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: :)  

21:40:32 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: WHO would do that?

21:41:01 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: we were so "hip" two years ago with WOmen of Web 2.0 -- now we are just another "trend"  :)

21:41:13 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: sigh

21:41:23 [Message] kelly hines -> -EdTechTalk: so the Washington Post would say

21:41:24 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: It's the minds here that draw the crowd, not the 2.0 :-)

21:41:34 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: thanks Ben!

21:41:36 [Message] Jackie Gerstein -> -EdTechTalk: Pedagogy first then the technology -

21:41:55 [Message] dlaufenberg -> -EdTechTalk: coming from AZ, I know the mobility challenge

21:42:01 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: Just stating the truth.

21:42:01 [Message] sendkathy -> -EdTechTalk: true jackie very true

21:42:08 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: but it is the 2.0 that enables us to have these conversations around the globe!

21:42:26 [Message] VinnieVrotny -> -EdTechTalk: and make the connections ourselves and with others

21:42:28 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: it's not pedagogy or technology, though

21:42:29 [Message] ryanbretag -> -EdTechTalk: @PeggyG right on!

21:42:39 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: Probably not, it's just the organic nature of the changing web.

21:42:44 [Message] Jackie Gerstein -> -EdTechTalk: Then what is it cheri

21:42:47 [Message] kelly hines -> -EdTechTalk: lost the sound again

21:42:53 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: i would like to see a seamless melding of both

21:42:55 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: hmmm -- really KELLY??

21:43:00 [Message] ryanbretag -> -EdTechTalk: @cheri t it is, and always should be, about learning

21:43:00 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: it is still fine here   :)

21:43:21 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: whatever allows students to learn best

21:43:33 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: that is incredible! just came to technology a little over a year ago!!

21:43:35 [Message] kelly hines -> -EdTechTalk: oh. there it is

21:43:42 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: pshew -- thanks Kelly

21:43:43 [Message] Jackie Gerstein -> -EdTechTalk: What happens, then, when technology is not the best option to learn ___ - fill in the blank.

21:43:46 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: which involves the application of good pedagogy and appropriate technology

21:43:50 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: Learning.  Absolutely 100% agree.

21:43:55 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: ::::blush::::

21:44:05 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: I heard that!:-)

21:44:09 [Message] sr -> -EdTechTalk: call it Learning 2.0

21:44:15 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: Right - and what happens when we have bad teaching?

21:44:27 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: Bad learning.

21:44:30 [Message] Jackie Gerstein -> -EdTechTalk: My gifted elementary students LOVE technology and almost always choose hands-on over the technology when given a choice to learn the topic.

21:44:36 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: You are a couragous, persevering, imaginative, tweep

21:44:49 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: good technology will not make bad teachers good - only tech users

21:44:53 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: (and a great student)

21:45:16 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: I think I need to get me one of those blog coaches.

21:45:18 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: Yes! winner of best blog award!

21:45:19 [Message] ryanbretag -> -EdTechTalk: @cheri t we DON'T GIVE UP on the teachers and pass them along to the next school to hire. We worked to develop a growth plan to change practices.

21:45:20 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: it's not about the tech, but moreso about the talk (and the connecting of ideas)

21:45:41 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: @Ryan - we have to coach them to get better and to stay in teaching

21:45:44 [Message] sendkathy -> -EdTechTalk: which half?

21:45:52 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: Our top half.

21:45:57 [Message] sendkathy -> -EdTechTalk: haha

21:46:08 [Message] kelly hines -> -EdTechTalk: my philospohy is that if they aren't learning, you aren't teaching... it's like the physics principle of work

21:46:08 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: I try to make sure that the preservice teachers I have in class want to be teachers for the right reasons

21:46:13 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: waving to Ben:-)

21:46:14 [Message] ryanbretag -> -EdTechTalk: @cheri t yes -- pull the punitive piece of evaluations and shift it to a growth plan.

21:46:23 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: exactly

21:46:27 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: Waving back to Mike.

21:46:28 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: very interesting point--biggest challenge is teaching habitudes to teachers rather than kids

21:46:46 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: great point kelly

21:46:51 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: Ryan, how do you measure the growth of the plan?

21:46:57 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: @Ryan - I have at least 2 or 3 each semester who come up and tell me they don't want to teach any more - it's not for them and not what they thought it was going to be

21:47:05 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: gotta be the student we want our students to be

21:47:10 [Message] dlaufenberg -> -EdTechTalk: gotta love the midwestern go getters ;)

21:47:17 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: if we as teachers aren't learners...

21:47:19 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: LOL

21:47:20 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: Cheri -- are you surprised???  

21:47:32 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: can you tell that sometimes as they go through the program???

21:47:42 [Message] ryanbretag -> -EdTechTalk: @cheri t that is a good thing, IMHO. It shows that they are getting a true picture of teaching.

21:47:42 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: @Jen - no, i do it on purpose ... let them know what it's really lke

21:47:43 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: like

21:47:53 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: seriously...show me a teacher who strives to be the dumbest person in their classroom - and I'll show you an engaged, learning, collaborative classroom

21:47:59 [Message] Jackie Gerstein -> -EdTechTalk: Love it - "get-to-do"  The technology is so amazing, so coool - it has given me new meaning of being a lifelong learner.  I taught all day and here I am voulnteerily at a professional develop forum!

21:48:25 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: @Mike - that's the strength of getting off the "stage"

21:48:26 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: one of the best things of being a teacher -- one thing I miss the most -- is the newness each day

21:48:34 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: lay your life on the line as a learner for your kids--that's the risk that scares them and yet is so important!!

21:48:40 [Message] sendkathy -> -EdTechTalk: the element of surprise

21:48:41 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: @cheri t -- RIGHT!

21:48:43 [Message] ryanbretag -> -EdTechTalk: @Ben Grey various methods both in breadth and depth

21:48:59 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: isn't vulnerability a teacher habitude?

21:49:32 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: put the ego aside and let them see me learning ... let them see that I don't think I know it all

21:49:34 [Message] page -> -EdTechTalk: The best moments I have with my children is when I learn something new along with them.

21:49:38 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: how refreshing to have a President who models transparency--this could be the beginning of something incredible for all of us!

21:49:57 [Message] dlaufenberg -> -EdTechTalk: it is in the first blog post on the new WH site

21:50:02 [Message] dlaufenberg -> -EdTechTalk: transparency

21:50:08 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: cheri t - be contagious with that!!

21:50:09 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: that doesn't mean that I'll lose control - it means I'll really create an environment where my students can become independent from me as learners

21:50:13 [Message] kelly hines -> -EdTechTalk: wasn't that exciting to read!

21:50:18 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: Excellent dlaufenberg!

21:50:26 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: @Ryan, any specific examples? I like the growth plan idea.

21:50:32 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: @Mike - I try to infect everyone - students and faculty

21:50:34 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: :-)

21:51:08 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: habitudes give literacy a context--very helpful explanation

21:51:08 [Message] sr -> -EdTechTalk: sorry I have to leave..great conversations

21:51:27 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: Thanks SR for joining us tonight

21:51:43 [Message] ryanbretag -> -EdTechTalk: @Ben Grey I can send you all we do in that regard. It is a comprehensive plan that started with a review of Danielson and shifted into our own.

21:51:46 [Message] dlaufenberg -> -EdTechTalk: it is my goal as a HS tecaher for everyone of my student sto not need me (teachers) at the end of the run in HS.  developing independent, analytical skills along the way are key.

21:52:07 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: dlaufenberg - wow..that's a great attitude!!

21:52:14 [Message] sendkathy -> -EdTechTalk: that was my role as a parent

21:52:14 [Message] kelly hines -> -EdTechTalk: @dlaufenberg and I have the same hopes for my 10 year olds :)

21:52:17 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: dlaufenberg - wow..that's a great attitude!!I love that!

21:53:30 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: it makes my job much easier

21:53:45 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: the business community learns incredibly from Angela too!  (tho Durff is my inspiration)

21:53:46 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: @JenW I was wondering why I was wearing this odd spandex suit with my initials on my chest.

21:53:46 [Message] courosa -> -EdTechTalk: hi all!

21:53:56 [Message] cheri t -> -EdTechTalk: @dlaufenberg - i want them to learn how to be interdependent also

21:54:07 [Message] JenW -> -EdTechTalk: @BenGrey -- do I need to name drop you again?  You already owe me $1.25

21:54:12 [Message] sharonp -> -EdTechTalk: @Ben let me guess - it is red and blue, that spandex suit?

21:54:24 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: even retired people NEED these competencies!! :-)

21:54:34 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: great point Peggy

21:54:34 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: @sharonp  Actually, all gray.  I'm going for a themed look.

21:55:16 [Message] techsavvygirl -> -EdTechTalk: anybody have any recommendations for must hear podcast for literacy coaches and administrators to supplement Angela's

21:55:47 [Message] sendkathy -> -EdTechTalk: good question

21:55:48 [Message] VinnieVrotny -> -EdTechTalk: does angela have a podcast? URL please?

21:55:50 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: @techsavvygirl - if there isn't one - you should put one together, yes?

21:56:02 [Message] techsavvygirl -> -EdTechTalk: my administrator wants me to give her things in audio whenever possible

21:56:05 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: I've had people ask me why I keep participating in things like conferences and webcasts since I'm retired and I can't imagine NOT doing it--we have to keep learning and growing!!

21:56:09 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: @vinnie - not yet she doesn't, but ya never know

21:56:30 [Message] charlie roy -> -EdTechTalk: :)

21:56:31 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: mentors are soooooo important

21:56:45 [Message] VinnieVrotny -> -EdTechTalk: thx - watching inauguration with wife, a teacher, whose school did not watch the proceedings

21:56:52 [Message] mike sansone -> -EdTechTalk: record it, make it better, even send it home in podcast form

21:57:00 [Message] courosa -> -EdTechTalk: you add value to my life Angela. :-)

21:57:06 [Message] PeggyG -> -EdTechTalk: just following people on twitter without having an "official" mentor provides invaluable mentoring and support!

21:57:13 [Message] techsavvygirl -> -EdTechTalk: how could a school not have been part of this historic day

21:57:15 [Message] Ben Grey -> -EdTechTalk: @courosa  True statement.
