Is anyone hosting their Moodle servers outside campus. With disaster recovery and closure planning, we are looking to move to an outside host.

We are looking for a teacher to conduct a school visit to a school with an exemplary technology program, preferably a 1:1 program. The grades of focus would be 3 - 6. Looking forward to gathering suggestions.

Hi Susan ~ I Twitter and I love my PLN on Twitter! I get teaching ideas daily, and I feel like I miss out on great discussion if I am away from Twitter for more than a few days. My Twitter name is BJacketsfan.

Thanks Sarah,
I agree with you - what I really want to say is that the 1-1 will enhance and improve our already high quality teaching and that it is part of the "life long learner" that is in our mission statement.
And then I'm done.
