Posted in Library, South Carolina, Twitter on Feb 2nd, 2008
Wednesday evening I blogged about my experience being a guest speaker in a grad class. I included a hyperlinked image of Twitter shoutouts to person’s twitter page, and one of my commentors asked how I did that. So i will share the steps and how I knew what to do below. I think I first [...]

Today on our SCASL-listserv, a fellow teacher-librarian asked about how schools are dealing with students who bring their own laptops to school. The posted question also inquired about how schools are using webcams, with the follow up statement “couldn’t they be used to help our homebound students.” Of course we had quite a few respond, [...]

Today I am writing about self promotion! It’s so hard to do that, but it was a necessary evil that I succumbed to today. I will share about my eye doctor’s visit and an article I was asked to write up for the SCASL Media Center Messenger (our state school library asssociation’s quarterly journal.) First [...]

One of my favorite edubloggers (who resides in a folder for Experts in my reader) has set up a new location for his blog. That’s right friends, David Jakes, expert at Digital Storytelling Guru (just to name a few of his many educational tech skills/expertise) has created a new web presence and moved his blog [...]

Recently I traveled my 170 mile trip home (I work in a different town from my family, and only visit home on the weekends) and arrived only to be totally disgusted that I did not pack any jeans. Worse, not a single pair of pants! Now before I draw a pity party, let me say [...]

I read where Kathy Schrock and Doug Johnson recently provided a history or timeline of sorts to document their careers, so thought I’d take a moment to do mine. I am no comparison to those two who are quite accomplished educators. But it does help me when I reflect over my growth. In taking this [...]

Every now an again I check my blog stats–what little the freebie Edublogs platform offers–to see how I’m doing in Technorati. It was a good while back that I became familiar with the concept of Technorati and what it does. I learned how to find bloggers who wrote about topics I was interested in, and [...]

SCEdtech concluded yesterday at 1:30 with a wonderful awards luncheon. My friend Chris Craft was a Tehnology Innovative Program (TIP) Award winner, and was presented with a SMART Board and handhelds to go with it. WOOT. I suggested Chris apply last spring, telling him he was a shoe-in. Chris, you are well on your way [...]

Thank you SC Edtech for another great conference. It’s not over yet, but I’ve already experienced so much, I have to say thank you. While I very much enjoy my “virtual network from Twitter, Second Life, Blogging, and more, nothing replaces seeing the teachers so eager to learn each year at our state conference, and [...]
