For those of you interested in learning more about some of the amazing things teachers are doing around Web 2.0 technology in Colorado and around the world, Learning 2.0: A Colorado Conversation is an upcoming free conference on Saturday, February 21st (9:00-3:00). Participants can attend either virtually from the comfort of your home or in person at Heritage High School in Littleton.
I attended last year's conference on-site (here are my notes from 2008)and found it cutting edge and useful. I was especially inspired by Anne Smith's work around Socratic fishbowls and live blogging. While the technology in my building could not support live blogging, I was able to modify the Anne's idea with my students who were reading Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson and S.E. Hinton's The Outsiders. You can read more about that work on this page of a wiki that I created in anticipation for my interview for my current position.
