Reading...

I have been doing a lot of the required reading for the three classes that I am taking this summer hoping to get a head of the game.  I don't think it is going so well.

I have read 3 chapters of  Blogs, Wikis, and Podcasts and I liked most of what I read.  I have put several colored flags on information that might be useful for my class and for my classroom.

I am currently reading Teaching and Learning at a Distance for another class.  It is much more dry.  Not as many colored flags are being used.  :-P

My first blog

Hello!  This is my first blog.  Not really sure what to say/type... I am not really a verbal person which is kind of funny given that I am a teacher.  I tell my students that if I am speaking it must be important as I don't really have a lot to say.
