Demo Post for GAFEsummit in Hawaii

I'm now in Hawaii asking these three familiar questions...

1. What is a blog? A journal or diary, online forum, a living changing thing, a record of things that happen in your life or things that interest you, a reflection, way to share or express to others.
2. What is the read/write web? Or web 2.0? Or two-way web? Interaction, collaborative, it makes everybody an author/publisher, participation... lots of people can see and interact with you.
3. What do these technologies mean for you and your students? Invested, students have a potentially global, authentic audience, requires a critical, ownership...

We're at least scratching the tip of the iceberg here. And we're off...

Another Demo for The ATP Activity

Type something quick for your first post...

Demo for ATP 2011-2012

I'm here (again) asking a room full of administrators these familiar questions:

1. What is a blog? A chat? It's personal opinion or commentary - an electronic diary. 
2. What is the read/write web (or web 2.0)? Surprisingly, this means nothing to the people in the room... wait there's more: it could be a blog, a wiki, etc... anything where there is interaction online... social networking etc.
3. What might these things mean to you and your students? People can respond to opinions on blogs (for students in an academic context, for instance). Conversations go on outside of class... access to help and other resources... 

So we've got something to start with. Here we go...

I'm now demoing editing a post. Cool.
