My Learning Network
My educational mantra this year is professional learning networks. Web 2.0, School 2.0, and learning and teaching in the 21st century is about creating an effective learning network. The strength and quality of your life-long learning relates to the people in your network. Here’s my learning network (okay, not the baby) and I am so proud to learn from them every day. [You really want to click on the last link in this paragraph--he's a fifth grade student keynoter and you want to hear his message.]
Special thanks to Brad Fountain for his TouchGraph photo on Facebook. I’m so glad to be part of this learning community.

Blogging in Plain English
Word Press has never been my favorite blog because it is not user-friendly to embeddable code (code that lets you share videos, slide shows, and virtually anything else). If you are a blogger, then you have already notices that ES (Edublogs, the educational division of Word Press) and W (for Word Press) indicate that these blogs require a special code. So, when I tried to use the embeddable code from TeacherTube for the following Commom Craft Show video, I learned that using a TT video would be a nightmare experience in root directories and things I just do not know how to execute. But, I found BlipTV (the world’s leading videoblogging and podcasting servide), the answer to embedding video (if your YouTube or TeacherTube video has made it to BlipTV) on Edublogs.

The Me Generation
Cross-posted on Changing Connections and RJS SHS
Try as I would, I was never able to upload any of the IP presentation videos. I did, however, succeed in uploading Jade Letlow and Sam Heddlesten’s independent research project, The Me Generation–1970-1979: How Could Establishment and Anti-Establishment Exist? Here it is.
