Chalk Talk: 6/5/09

ChalktalkChalk Talk Friday represents conversations and brilliance I've discovered traversing my way through the Blogosphere.  From professional to personal development, these are the posts and links have in some way touched my head or my heart!

  • If you have not gotten a chance to attend the Cyber Summit on 21st Century Literacies, there is still more sessions to come. The Summit runs until June12. If you can not make it live, no worries, all the sessions are archived. Well worth your time.
  • You know how much I love Wordle. My Twitter friend, Jen Wagner has created this wonderful resources for using Wordle in the Classroom. Great ideas and classroom examples.
  • Speaking of Summer Learning, Scott McLeod has organized a grand list of learning opportunities  for busy school administrators (Lots of great stuff here for teachers, too.)
  • Check out this fantastic collection of real world videos and resources for science, math, and history from NeoK12. 
  • This was one of the most powerful posts of the week. Why Education is Failing - Views from a Student. Lots to ponder here!

    Jen Wagner’s power point on using Wordle may be the best find you’ve passed along to me in the past few months! I’ve sent it on to several colleagues. I am excited to expand my use of wordle and let my kids loose with it in the lab next year. Thanks!
