Preaching to the Choir…
I just read Steve Dembo’s post http://www.teach42.com/2007/10/18/building-out-the-choir/ and I realize he is right. So many of us here in the “Blogosphere” are connecting with each other over and over again; each time we hook up we reaffirm our need and dependence on Web 2.0 technologies. We need to move beyond that to an “each one, reach one” strategy in order to share the wealth. As a teacher trainer, I have opportunities to share, but so many of my teachers still need the basics. I have teachers who “don’t have time” to read email…what they fail to realize is that they truly don’t have time NOT to. All of these tools increase our productivity. They help us to get or find the resources that we need in shorter amounts of time.
Well Steve, thanks for the hint…I have the opportunity to reach 50+ reading educators at a meeting next month. I had planned to just give an overview of some websites, but I am determined to sneak a bit of Web 2.0 in…maybe I’ll mention http://del.icio.us and explain how they can bookmark sites that are of interest. I’m not quite sure how, but I’ll come up with something.
