Just a Quick Note...

Ed Open Mic sessions will pick back up in September once the school year is again running full throttle. Will and I look forward to more chats and hearing what all of you have to say about redefining education.

For those interested, here's the audio of the last chat we had.

Tonight at 8PM EST: Ed Open Mic -- "Redefining the Profession"

Join Will Richardson and I tonight at 8PM EST for this week's Ed Open Mic!

Tonight's topic will be "Redefining the Profession". We'll be talking about how the teaching profession has changed and is changing, and we'll be asking the question: "What can/should/must a teacher do to help redefine both her or his practice in the classroom as well as to redefine the teaching profession at-large in the digital age?"

Bring your big thinking hats and join us in our Elluminate room at 8PM EST. No talking heads, just you talking.

Ed Open Mic: Thurs 8PM EST

Sorry I haven't been posting lately. Been insanely busy using what hours the dog days of summer offer me to write a novel. Kid-sitting every day (which means a lot of field-tripping) all day and pouring sweat over a laptop in a public library carrel writing the book every evening all evening.

I need to finish this thing as I've got just a bit of writing time available; thus efforts at blogging have waned and I figure they will continue to be relatively slack until school picks up again. Will keep you posted.

In the meantime, we have another Ed Open Mic session scheduled for this Thursday at 8PM EST and we're looking for great topics. Do comment here and tell us what you'd like to chat about.
