"Craig, the conference sounds wonderful. The article in the Chronicle for Higher Education concerning tweets in the classroom raised issues covered also in the NYT last Sunday. Twitter might be helpful in forging boundaries with students (I feel…"

"Hi Murray, one more comment (since I'm here at home on yet another ice-day!)...
I've started using Haiku, planning to teach a writing course this summer. As much as I criticized what I thought it's clumsiness last summer when I…"

Laurie Bartels replied to Deborah Anne Moreland's discussion Books concerning online tools? in the group Blended Learning
"Hi Deborah,

Blended Learning
Connect with fellow educators as we explore blended learning (combining online and face-to-face instruction with a reduction in traditional "seat time") which according to iNACOL "is likely to emerge as the predominant teaching model of the future."

"Laurie, thanks for the hello. I double-dipped the last week with the OSG as well as an AP conference in DC. Whew! Now I need to reorient myself to the immersion I experienced with OSG--remembering all of it. I look forward to these conversations."
