I posted once about my RSS Reader, and I have since added more feeds to my page and I am finding it slightly addicting! I am following Dangerously Irrelevant, a blog by By Scott McLead, a leading academic expert on k-12 ed tech issues. His page is about technology, leadership, and the future of schools. I watched a video posted here called Rethinking Education…very interesting. I also read a post called “Don’t teach your kids this stuff. Please?” This post contained very valid points about the pros and cons of teaching (or not teaching) students about responsible use of technology in schools.
From the ISTE (International Society for Technology in Education) website I discovered the blog of Kyle B. Pace - an Instructional technology specialist who helps teachers integrate technology in the classroom. I read his post explaining Twitter and Educational Chats, and learned new things about Twitter. Because I have never used Twitter before, it was all news to me! I knew I would be using it for this class and I found this post very helpful in explaining Twitter and its purpose.
