NHS goes Social (Media that is!)

Date November 9, 2008

There was only one session at this conference that seemed to have anything to do with technology. It was positioned as the last session after 9PM on the last evening of the conference, and I was late.
Walking in quietly, I glanced up at the presenter’s slide. She had a FaceBook page for her [...]

PodCampAZ

Date November 4, 2008

Ok I gotta write this, but it’ll make me sound like a dork. I didn’t realize PodCampAZ was happening. PodCampAZ is an UnConference based completely on technology and attended by so many tech geeks just like me! Saturday evening my friends invited me to dinner at Chino Banditos, which is a mashup of Chinese & [...]

NaBloPoMo.com 2008

Date November 2, 2008

I use to write a novel each November for nanowrimo.org and that last three years until my daughter could walk/run/talk. Now I need a new outlet, and tonight I found NaBloPoMo.com. So my goal is to post one (or more) blog posts each day for this whole month. Here is #1. I don’t care that [...]

A Vision of Today’s Students

Date October 23, 2008


Michael Wesch spoke last year at MaricopaTech, and our visions of what “students” means mesh nicely. I, obviously, struggle on a smaller level what he struggles to accomplish on a grander level.

Here’s a brief video on how to add gmail contacts to a mailing group. As we all know, Google Apps changes almost daily. As for now this way works!

Sprint BlackBerry Curve

Date July 18, 2008

Got a new phone this week, and I’ve had some ups and downs with it that I will chronicle here. I’ve been truly trying to find the perfect smartphone for me, and I’ve come close in the last year or so. For example, I had a Sprint 8700 that I thought was pretty cool, since [...]

Google Apps for the classroom

Date July 18, 2008

Shelley Rodrigo and I have worked on a presentation on Google Apps, which I am ready to adapt, develop, update and add to. It’s a work in progress, but here’s what I have so far. I am running it by a few colleagues tomorrow as a sort of preview to larger things down the road, [...]

A new Shirley

Date May 28, 2008

Last week we “hired” a new AP Language teacher. As you may know Shirley Crabtree is headed to Perry, so we desperately needed someone. We did discuss in house people, and Ken James had someone in mind. When Liza and I met her, we were really excited and recommended her to district immediately. She seemed [...]
