Well, not quite yet since there is a PD workshop tomorrow for me, but the presentation/workshop co-presented with Donna entitled How to Drink Water from a Fire Hose is now done. My brain is too tired for a full autopsy right now, but my general impression is positive. Many teachers are ready to start looking at some new (and I think better and easier) online ways of communicating and collaborating with each other and with students. Of course, I had the iRiver on record mode during the presentation and if the audio is reasonable, I’ll have that up as a podcast sometime soon (or maybe I should say sooner or later).

Sometime soon, I need to spend some serious blogging time to write down some stuff about projects I’ve been working on at the school, reactions to other people’s blogs and my almost virtual attendance at the Social Software Salon hosted by Brian, D’Arcy and Alan as a warmup to the Northern Voice conference (and it almost worked except I kept gacking Jason’s computer with my Skype connection - sorry about that, Jason). For now, though, I get to take off the ed-tech guy hat for a while, and spend a bit more time wearing the husband-and-dad hat for a few days of being with the family. It won’t be too much of a rest since the house is in midst of rearrangement in preparation for the newbie we are expecting sometime around the middle of March. Watch this space for details.
