test 1 9/19
Week of September 13-19, 2008
Hello EdTechTalkers:
Welcome to the this week's edition of the EdTechTalk
(ETT) Weekly Newsletter.
There have been some excellent shows this past week but
sometimes it
takes up to a week for the shows to be uploaded and
posted to
EdTechTalk. If you "can't wait" for the next
newsletter, you can always
check the home page of ETT to see the latest show
postings
EdTechTalk Brainstorm is starting a new series of
webcasts for the
next several weeks (Thursdays, 6:00pm EDT) that will
focus on using
Drupal for education. If you're interested in exploring
Drupal, have
specific questions, or just want to learn more, please
join Doug
Symington and his ETBS group each week. We have created a
wikispace to
compile questions/answers and resources for Drupal.
http://drupalfordummies.wikispaces.com.
You're invited to join the
conversation and contribute!
EdTechTalk is a community of people interested in the use
of
technology to improve teaching and learning at all levels
of education
throughout the world. As a Worldbridges community, it
embraces the
values of collaboration and inclusiveness. The primary
activity of the
community is the production of a number of live,
interactive webcasts.
These programs cover a wide range of topics relating to
educational
technology. Shows are typically streamed live, and
listeners can
interact with one another and the show hosts through a
text chat.
Recordings of the shows are released as podcasts.
Participation in the
community is encouraged for anyone who has an interest in
educational
technology. Participation may take many forms, from
simply listening to
shows produced by the community to more actively working
to produce and
distribute content for the network.
