I've taken the recording of our recent discussion on technology integration and have published it as a podcast. Click on the title above to go to my podcast page. Scroll down to find "Episode 2 - Integrating Technology" podcast to listen to it.
For those of you who missed the meeting, this would be one way to catch up on the discussion that you missed.
Be patient when you get to the podcast. It's a fairly large file (about 40 minutes worth) so it takes a minute or two to download. You can listen to it right on the computer. You don't need an iPod or other device to download it into.
And, while you are in a listening mood, you might want to listen on the podcast we made at our first Village Elementary Podcasting Project meeting. It's a super quick one ~ about 3 minutes, I think. When you get to the podcasting page, just scroll down to the bottom to find "The Journey Begins."
After listening, feel free to come back here to comment on either podcast or on the subjects of the podcasts.

Okay no one posted anything because they were all there!!! I hate missing these conversations. Here are my comments after the fact: The number one reason I don't use technology to teach in my classroom is because of the slow and outdated technology in my room. It is very hard to show the class something on a student computer or get behind my desk and see mine. It is also a long walk to the lab for k's. So I do my teaching during my one and only lab time. Secondly, I want people to know that my grade level is always very receptive and excited about any techie things I come across. If we use it AND talk about it, others will come on board - slowly but surely. The funny thing that happened when I was listening to this podcast during my planning time is Erin C. came in my room and said "What is that?" I said it was podcast of a meeting I missed. She said "What is a podcast?"!!!!!!!!! There was my opportunity to tell her and she's going on D. Warren's site to hear his kid's podcast now! We need to talk and share. Ed was right, if people see us using it(somehting as simple as pushing a laptop cart around, I think that we heighten their interest.
