Thanks for the feedback, Mitch. I'm just curious if teachers would rather their district host these web 2.0 services or if they would rather go outside. I'm also curious, do you know if your district has any policies regarding publishing on the web, either inside your network or outside? Thanks...
I had a great time reading some of your student's posts on your Blogmeister site, Mitch. I listened to the three podcast files too. Nice job.
Can I ask, does your district offer and blog hosting capabilities? Just curious why you opted for wordpress.com and David Warlick's Blogmeister service.
Hi Mitch! Were you in Cheryl's class? Your name sounds familiar to me too! If you need more information on the MA program let me know. It looks like you're doing fantastic things with your blog/gcast/videos etc!! I may be contacting you to find out more about your experiences w/Web 2.0 and your classroom! Take care!

Mitch, your blog is pretty awesome. You should consider posting your Welcome back to School video here too. You should also consider applying for a job in my district!

Hi Everyone,
I recently had an interactive whiteboard installed in my classroom. I didn’t receive any training, so I set out to find some interactive lessons for my English classes. It has been an interesting experience to “teach” myself how to us...

Hello everyone,
These websites may be familiar to you but they are all new to me. One of my colleagues has all these linked on her wiki so I'm borrowing as all good teachers do!

If you teach math, you might want to check out Hotmath.com
