Hello World

I must sound like a broken record, if anyone remembers what a broken record was……but I keep saying the same thing…over and over…I am swamped. I remember taking a grad class during my educational administstrative days that explored the time technology added to our day and really that is where I am. I love technology and because of my passion, I am immersed in finding ways to introduce newcomers to the benefits and ease of using technologies in the classroom. But, that takes time!!

Later this week, I am presenting at the Illinois Education and Technology Conference in Springfield. Cheri Toldeo and I are teaming up to share what we can about wikis in two hours. The workshop is “make and take.” We have two hours and twenty computers,  so I’m pretty psyched about finding some really engaging “stuff” (one of my favorite words) to give and share with teachers that will really add up to time well spent. Something that they take away and return to rather than just leave behind.

In my search, I am looking for current SlideShare, YouTubes, etc.  I just watched a really cool SlideShare show–. I don’t speak Portuguese, so I’m not sure what the words are saying. I did try to translate…and from the inferences I was able to draw, I still think the show is pretty cool. If someonw could translate for me, I’d be more than appreciative.
