Vic Jaras NECC 2009

NECC 2009 was held in Washington D.C. this year and it was a wonderful opportunity to see and experience the latest innovations in Educational Technology. Met a lot of old friends, new colleagues and of course vendor contacts. Perhaps the most promising was talking with educators from the Russian Federation. There were so many things to see that one cannot see them all. You have to focus in a particular area. I look forward to bringing forth some partnerships that will benefit the children of… Continue

Chris Hum Virtual NECC09 Participation: After NECC, Whats Next?

Once again, overwhelmed by the sheer amount of content that came out of NECC. My largest lesson learned was time management and focus on core area of interest. It is very hard to choose 1 candy when in the candy shop. I spent a great deal of time on Twitter and realized, after the experience, that much of what was posted could be very easily taken out of context. I often ended up tracking down particular statements to the sessions in which they were said, and then having to locate video clips,… Continue

Bonnie Muir Alan November

Ballroom B is filling up fast. Alan November is so popular with NECC attendees because he speaks about technology in education with such levity that time flies, you learn a lot and you have fun. He has noticed a pattern with pioneering educators: there is a shift of control from the teacher to the class to create content and curriculum. He started by asking 4 questions to 25 high performing kids. The audience replied using promethean clickers. 1. How often do you think your students walked… Continue

Bonnie Muir QR Code

Watching Vickie Davis is always fun. She introduces new ideas, new people, and new geek stuff. So what is the title of this post about? What is QR code? I only heard about it 10 minutes ago, so I am still trying to figure it all out, but my understanding is that it is a two-dimensional bar code which can store up to 7kB of data, such as: plain text, mobile telephone numbers along with a SMS message, contact cards (e.g VCards), geographic information, images and other information. I went to a Q… Continue

Thinking about spending your upcoming holidays in India? The thought of taking holidays in India is simply exotic and magical. This spell binding, ancient, mystical civilization is truly awesome in its diversity and extent. Virtually, India is a sub continent stretching from the sky scrapping Himalayas to the widespread deserts in West, the far flung sub Himalayan forests in North East to the blossoming evergreen forests in South. India boasts three pious rivers, the Indus, the Brahmaputra and… Continue
