Just for fun, I did some searching under the plpresearch tag (for <a href="http://plpnetwork.com/">Powerful Learning Practice</a>) with a further search refinement under Twitter. Here's what I learned:<br />
<br />
There are two new tools for Twitter that I did not know about: <a href="http://www.delicious.com/">GroupTweet</a> and <a href="http://nurph.com/">Nurph</a>. The former transforms a Twitter account into a private group messaging system. The latter allows tweeters to create a chat. I can definitely think of some classroom applications for both.<br />
<br />
Which brings me to the other stuff I learned: that <a href="http://blog.reyjunco.com/using-twitter-to-support-engagement-in-the-college-classroom">early studies have found correlations between using social media such as twitter in the classroom and student engagement</a>, and the School Library Journal reports that the conciseness required by tweeting in 140 characters or less can actually help students improve their writing skills.<br />
<br />
I'm gratified to see the research bearing out what I have "felt" from my observations in the classroom in the past few years. Students are becoming better writers because they are writing more than ever! So why aren't we using these tools more in the classroom -- and I mean both delicious and Twitter? <br />
<br />
I continue to be shocked at how few students use delicious, especially, when they are hopping from one computer to another all day long. I know that our students learn about delicious in their Tech classes in the 8th or 9th grade, so why don't they continue to do so when they continue with research projects later on?Susan Lucille Davishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04177617013935970644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22683335.post-44424646195952324642010-09-09T20:58:00.001-05:002010-09-09T20:59:47.669-05:00Blogging on Demand and Shopping with RSSI am feeling a little bit like my students must -- I have been "assigned" a blog. Ugh. Somehow the fact that I have been given a topic and sent to my blogging room is not sitting well with my blogging muse. And this makes me wonder what we are doing to blogging with our students. Remember when journals were the rage? Students had to "journal" for every class! What a chore! Now my seniors are working on three blogs, and I had planned to introduce a fourth tomorrow! Too much!<br />
<br />
That said, I enjoyed tooling around a few suggested blogs, experiencing the variety, seeing the form's flexibility. I learned a few things too -- <a href="http://www.freetech4teachers.com/2010/09/wikispaces-makes-it-easier-to-embed.html">glogs can be embedded on wikispaces,</a> for instance. Good to know. <br />
<br />
And I'm getting more comfortable with commenting, especially when I read the blogs of the "big dogs." Blogging is liberating in that way -- I am allowed to offer something of value to the conversation based on my thinking and experience.<br />
<br />
I am going to use this blog to talk about RSS too. I have been using RSS ever since <a href="http://weblogg-ed.com/">Will Richardson</a> himself taught me how to do it at an ISTE poster session oh so long ago. It amazes me still how so many people don't know how what RSS is or how to use it to make their lives easier.<br />
<br />
I think I use RSS a bit differently, however. I'm definitely not a daily reader -- don't have the time. But I do use it to "shop around" to various blogs I like when I have a spare moment before class or when I'm on hold on the telephone. There is a surprise element here that I like -- I never know what will turn up. It's a bit like a controlled <a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/discover/activity/">stumbleupon</a> indulgence.<br />
<br />
I have used iGoogle to gather my students' work or to corral updated sites for their further study and reflection. This is iGoogle's attraction for me over Google Reader -- I can see a whole page of sites at a glance, and I can share groups of them with others, as in this collection of <a href="http://www.google.com/ig?t=7#restore">my seniors' project sites</a> (one of the results of our PLP work last year). iReader may do this too, for all I know (it has been a long time since I've used it). I have heard lately that it's good for sharing comments with a group over time, sort of google wave fashion.<br />
<br />
Back to my earlier point, however... I wonder if we need to show a little blog restraint. At what point do we reach OVERKILL?Susan Lucille Davishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04177617013935970644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22683335.post-33143075370262848262010-06-13T13:38:00.000-05:002010-06-13T13:38:52.450-05:00The Luxury of Follow-ThroughFor the first official day of my "summer vacation," I attended <a href="http://tedxhouston.com/about-ted.php">TEDxHouston </a>yesterday. I put "summer vacation" in quotation marks here because there is very little that resembles a vacation that happens in my life between June and August. Those few weeks may be better described as working from home, or working at my own pace, or working until I feel like taking a nap or making a meal that doesn't come out of a box, but it isn't anything like the "summer vacation" many non-educators probably imagine.<br />
<br />
But what the summer does bring for me is the luxury of follow-through. So after attending TEDx yesterday (if you are interested in my thoughts on the event see <a href="http://fly2learn.blogspot.com/2010/06/ted-standard.html">"The TED Standard"</a>), I indulged in a morning of rifling through the goody bag I received at the event, checking out new websites, and, yes, tweeting and blogging. I put people in touch with one another, checked out a contest for a free computer for my school, and explored new resources. Oh, how I miss this pleasure of reinforcing my learning during the school year when I am, more often than not, distracted by so many details I can't think or running from one urgent deadline to the next.<br />
<br />
And what does this tell me about the hectic nature of learning for my students? Definitely something to give more thought to...over the summer.Susan Lucille Davishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04177617013935970644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22683335.post-39162687839626144002010-06-06T18:53:00.001-05:002010-06-06T18:57:36.343-05:00Digital Footprint or Digital Tattoo?How would you describe your presence on the web?

Not only did the students come to understand their own agency in the learning process, but they went way beyond this to value the challenges of teachers and other students as well as to see connections between their lives and the literary heroine Jane Eyre. How good is that?<br /><br />Now I would love to have teachers -- and others -- continue the conversation. Let us know what you think about this issue that is so important to all of us.<img style="visibility:hidden;width:0px;height:0px;" border=0 width=0 height=0 src="http://counters.gigya.com/wildfire/IMP/CXNID=2000002.0NXC/bHQ9MTI1NDk2MjEwNzIyOCZwdD*xMjU*OTYyMTI5MTkxJnA9MjA2NDIxJmQ9YjY1NDc3NyZuPWJsb2dnZXImZz*yJm89NThkZDM*MjVhM2RhNGMzYTllMWRjNDAxN2MyMzllMTYmb2Y9MA==.gif" /><object width="480" height="360"><param name="movie" value="http://voicethread.com/book.swf?b=654777"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://voicethread.com/book.swf?b=654777" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="480" height="360"></embed></object>Susan Lucille Davishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04177617013935970644noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22683335.post-28158989596770306662009-09-04T21:18:00.008-05:002009-09-04T22:02:50.893-05:00Someone Out There Likes MeSusan Sontag tells us that as tourists we try to capture our travels in photographs like so much brick-a-brack to take home and reminisce over rather than experience. Yet what does it mean that nowadays we share those possessions not just with our families and friends who have been lured into a boring slide show by the promise of dinner and drinks, but with...who knows who might be out there?<br /><br />I posted my best photos from <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/teacherteacher/collections/">my vacation to Prague on flickr</a>. Perhaps most importantly I took the time to tag them something simple like "Prague" or "Prague Summer 2009." And now one of those photographs (of the terrific breakfast buffet at the Hotel Maximilian) was chosen to be included in the <a href="http://www.schmap.com/">Schmap Guides</a>. <br /><br />I agreed, of course I agreed. Now I know someone out there likes my work enough to publish it, enough to use it to illustrate the funky elegance of a lovely hotel in Prague where my husband and I spent several delightful days last July. Now I have an audience.<br /><br />If it feels this good for someone like me -- an amateur photographer and at the same time a teacher who has been around the cobblestone lane a few times -- imagine what such recognition feels like to our students who are discovered and read and validated in ways I could not imagine when I was their age. <br /><br />I think I need to go take some more pictures now...<br /><br /><iframe id="schmapplet" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" allowTransparency="true" style="border-style:none; border-width:0px;" width="200" height="380" src="http://www.schmap.com/templates/t011py.html?uid=prague&sid=toppicks_hotels&ultranarrow=true&si=SCHMAP-040909911728#mapview=Map&tab=map&topleft=50.0695578,14.3744866&bottomright=50.1048502,14.4406054&c=f6f6f6A72122A62122A62122FFF88FFAF5BBffffffFFF88Fd8d8d8A4A7A6A621226990ffECEBBD0000005C5A4E5C5A4E000000929292F0EFDA"></iframe>Susan Lucille Davishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04177617013935970644noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22683335.post-26317905187693247382009-07-12T07:14:00.003-05:002009-07-12T07:51:40.244-05:00On Themes and ProjectsI had some great teacher talk with my old friends Rebecca and Tracy last night. Tracy has just accepted a new job with a small alternative school that delivers its curriculum via themes and projects. She'll be teaching seventh- and eighth-grade English and Language Arts, and so our talk turned to books, as is the way with English teachers. <br /><br />On the way home, I started thinking about the "themes" she was presented with for the year: England, America after the Revolution and before the Civil War, and "all the world's a stage." We had joked about England...what about it? how is that a theme? But really that could be said for the second one too. A place and a period of time are not themes, they are really just topics. This reminded me that many teachers come up with some way of organizing their work with students and call these organizing elements themes. But a theme is an IDEA; a theme is not the content or information itself. And it's the ideas that we need to be encouraging our students to explore; it's the ideas that give us rich opportunities to lead students toward learning; it's the ideas that give us and our students a framework for our lives.<br /><br />That said, this is what my friend Tracy was handed. So how can you build "projects" around the "idea" of England? What is the concept of England, and how would you go about building meaningful, learning-rich projects that go beyond baking scones and reciting Wordsworth? Why are we fascinated with England? What does it have to do with who we are as Americans? Anyway, that's where my thinking was going.<br /><br />Which led me to Harry Potter. I mean, why fight it, when Harry Potter is probably the main source or information our students might have about England by the time they are in the seventh or eighth grade? So what do the Harry Potter books tell us about England? Are Muggles and witches really two different sides to the English character -- exaggerations, yes, but something worth looking at? Is there something about English history that informs Hogwarts? What about elements of class that pervade these stories? What about quiddich -- how does it draw upon several different kinds of English sport? Why was the language of the first book "Americanized" (my step-daughter read both and says it was dumbed down) for American audiences?<br /><br />Now for the "project"? What about finding an English school to work with (hey, Tracy, I have a few connections) for the year and building a greater understanding of each other's culture with each of the themes? What is the British understanding of America and its birth up to the Civil War? What is the American understanding (or misunderstanding of Britain) via the media and Harry Potter? What can these students build and share with others that will convey this meaningful connection? A series of Youtube videos? An e-book or e-zine about national identity from the eyes of its adolescents who are exploring their own identities? A field guide to American and British culture using various media on the web? A pile of curricular materials for teachers? Perhaps these students could produce something that goes beyond superficial understanding and cultural stereotypes, something that we all could learn from. Now that's a project.Susan Lucille Davishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04177617013935970644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22683335.post-15212321766020444482009-07-10T15:04:00.004-05:002009-07-12T07:14:50.535-05:00Playing with VokiSo you create an avatar, add some audio, and...<br /><br /><script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="http://vhss-d.oddcast.com/voki_embed_functions.php"></script><script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">AC_Voki_Embed(200,267,"365ec98eff3c2d420ebd189f682cd5c7",1581410, 1, "", 0);</script><BR><br /><br />My friend Renee uses Voki to introduce concepts to her 3rd and 4th graders.

Students first interviewed teachers about a book or other literary work that had an impact on them when they were young. Then the students read that work, or a portion of it if it was longer than a story or poem. Next, students wrote an analysis of that work or portion. Using this deeper understanding of the work, students then composed podcast scripts to present the work to the school. Sometimes the students discovered a work they might not have otherwise encountered; sometimes they connected to their teachers in new ways.Susan Lucille Davishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04177617013935970644noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22683335.post-73043430385955247562009-01-03T13:39:00.001-06:002009-01-03T13:39:29.261-06:00Blogging EverywhereOkay, so I'm playing with iGoogle and a new tool that allows you to post directly to your blog, which is what I'm doing now.
