Sheryl is now safely back in Virginia from the Shanghai Learning 2.0 conference and has posted a link to the recorded archive of our Elluminate Session. I really do recommend that you listen to it as the other speakers were spot on with their contributions- well worth listening to again.
To listen to an Elluminate session click on the above link and you will need to give permission to open a Java application, it will check for the latest version and automatically load, wait a bit for it to open, it starts a little scratchy and then Clarence Fisher tells us about how he uses Web2.0 tools in his isolated school in Canada, followed by David Jakes, myself and Chris Betcher.
Uploaded with Skitch!
Clarence talks about how a class can be limited with just one teacher and the need to open the classroom doors so that children can learn from each other and other teachers/experts from around the globe.
This slide shows his representation of how a network of links has developed through blogging. Our class blog would be very similar I think. We learn things from friends and from friends of friends.
Do have a look/listen- you will not be disappointed.
Thank you! You were first rate!! I especially liked Chris’ echo of Warlick’s idea that learning is a conversation. I just read that same thought in James Paul Gee. I wonder who first said that. It is so true!
BTW, how do I post a photograph on classblogmeister?
If you have Skitch you can use that- the embed link.
I also use Flickr photos and copy the photo URL and leave a space before and after as it is inserted. That puts a photo re-sized on the right hand side.
Or blog using Flock and drag and drop!!!!
Allanah how exciting to be apart of a conference but not actually be there physically! he he Great to have you and Rachel representing N.Z on the Web 2.0 circuit.
I also noticed that your cluster map has gone crazy and that’s only in 4 weeks!
