Ben,
Sorry about not being around last Friday. I was called to duty. How about sometime next week. I'll be out of town but working on my computer so I'm available most any time.

Ben, Thanks for the welcome. It's going to be a great year.

Hi Ben,

I have a few items to ask and bring to your attention. I've recently been part of a team of individuals that created the first ever state-wide AECT (Association for Educational Communications and Technology) chapter for Michigan. Two questions:

1. Can I post information about it on here?
2. Where can I obtain information about having a table set up at the MACUL conference?
3. What is the deadline for submitting conference proposals?

Hi, Ben

My name is Lin, a phd student in Instructional Technology at Wayne State. My team members and I are thinking open a company to deliver course contents through Ning. We do need your help with the questions in the following because we know that you had many experiences with Ning, such as Macul. Thank you in advance.
My questions are:
1) if we use Ning site as a platform to deliver our contents just as you did for MACUL, do we need to pay any fee?

2)can we get rid off the commercials from the page?

3)Do you think Ning is safe enough and can provide communications only among proved members?

4)Does NIng can upload Flash games?


Thank you so much for your help and assistance and very look forward to hearing from you

I am guessing that my friendly building principal will more apt to pay since we won't have lodging expenses.

Hi Ben,

I'm doing a self-directed project at my school that involves skyping with three different comunities. One will be citi-wide, one will be on a national level, and one will be on an international level. I have the citi-wide level taken care of, but was trying to see about my prospects on the national level. I joined your site in the hopes of potentially meeting another teacher and classroom to skype with. Thanks for the welcome!

Hey, Ben! It was so great to finally be able to put a face with a name meeting you at the MACUL meeting. Attached you'll find the Research without Copying session handout about which we spoke this morning. Additionally, there's a vodcast of the session from a presentation in Hillsborough, FL on my MACUL Space page. You can also find the videos from the Research without Copying session from the SIGTELE event on my Connect profile at http://connect.tech4learning.com. So great to meet you! Enjoy the rest of the conference!Research without Copying 2010.pdf

Hi Ben,
I'm just wondering about something and you seem to be the person to ask. In the information booklet there was a photo contest listed that said to post to this site but I never saw or heard anything about it after that. I followed the directions for it but just wondered if there was supposed to be info about it somewhere else or if I missed something. Thanks.

Hey Ben, I think I got some ideas but mostly looking thanks for adding me in.

Hey, Thanks Ben. I look forward to learning more about this organization.

Thanks for all your help today. :)

Thank you!
