I was checking Alec Couros' students blogs and saw you were a mentor, as well!<br /><br />Loved your inspired summary of our get-together.Yes. At Casa Thomas Jefferson, a group of educators called the Ed Tech Team establish the training/mentoring goals for each new semester, and we have the support of our Coordination and course Supervision to carry out a blend of face2face and online training sessions. We've gone far, but it was a long road that started almost a decade ago. Only now it has really piqued teachers' interests and needs because of the new challenges they are facing, and the whole Ed Tech Team is there to give the support they need to improve, change, enhance their pedagogical practices. We're glad and lucky to be part of this movement towards teaching with meaning and possible connections through technology.<br /><br />Thanks for taking the time to write such a wonderful account of our roundtable.<br /><br />Beijos from hot Brasilia.testecarlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02265287790133905481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10272352.post-77028307053358173412010-09-01T13:42:50.661+08:002010-09-01T13:42:50.661+08:00Hi Aiden - I especially like the Barbie !

This is my first visit to your blog post...Hi Aiden,<br />This is my first visit to your blog post. Surely that word of "w...." might have been too strong and to me rather judgmental. I am not a language teacher, but I like to learn with the WebHeads. Aren't we all experiencing the use of tools and technology in our connections and communications, though each might have different emotional responses? To me, I found a lot of "aha" moments at the start of this digital journey, like Alice in Wonderland, wandering around and perplexed and awed with the Buzz, Google Wave etc., or the striking feelings of meeting new acquaintances in the real world, when someone visited and commented on my blog. Is it still resonating with us? Would it also be different for people coming from a different culture? Is it true that more language teachers are would use blogging in teaching and learning than other discipline? This seems true in my institution, though I have no connections with any of them so far.<br />Johnsmakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996589245560033624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10272352.post-1119022310084607912005-06-17T23:31:00.000+08:002005-06-17T23:31:00.000+08:00Well, Aiden the trial-session has been great.

Here we are in Alado (Aiden, Teresa, Joy and myself)and we have been discussing how difficult it is to find the time to keep up with our activities, including blogging. We have also discussed some strategies to do so.<BR/><BR/>I am glad to have attended this trial-session :-)<BR/><BR/>This is the URL for the Young Learners Yahoo Group:<BR/><A HREF="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/younglearners/" REL="nofollow">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/younglearners/</A>Dafhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02725438882121763246noreply@blogger.com
