Welcome to our show. This week Jen, Vicki , Sharon and Cheryl chat with Stephen Downes. It was a blast! You can view the agenda, the wiki for links and the chat.

Please do NOT rely on the chat for accurate links. In order to make the chat more managable I delete numbers in a wholesale fashion. But the links in the wiki are accurate.

Enjoy and come back next week to hear Brian Crosby from Learning is Messy.

Agenda for May 15, 2007

EdTechTalk #59 - Finding a voice for our community

Finding a voice for Edublog/ EdTech community

We discuss who we are as a 'Educational Technology' community and how we can get our community's message spread to a wider audience. A quick look at a few different wikipedia entries for ed tech will show you how silent the community has been... With the recent discussions about DOPA and Blackboard, that community voice is more important than ever.
