[14:06] <@alexr> Liz's post: http://isenet.ning.com/forum/topics/rethinking-professional
[14:08] <MattSpence> There's strength in numbers!
[14:10] == Paula_ [i=41a0944b@gateway/web/freenode/x-txlpvedfawliknis] has quit [Client Quit]
[14:11] == stoula [i=cc0adc04@gateway/web/freenode/x-fwiimztpxzsjwjqr] has quit [Client Quit]
[14:12] <MattSpence> To provide this level of PD the tech-staff resources (man-hours) must be there to support it. 
[14:12] <@alexr> @matt -- agreed.
[14:13] == Roland [i=4293324a@gateway/web/freenode/x-wosfodmfvaimrxpj] has quit ["Page closed"]
[14:17] <robletcher> I like to create stand-alone training resources (lessons, videos, etc.) that I can repurpose as needed based on teacher's needs
[14:17] == Ray_ [i=184cb0c7@gateway/web/freenode/x-nzwbgchlipsyhjyb] has joined #edtechtalk
[14:17] <robletcher> Paste them together to create what they need
[14:18] <robletcher> Strongly support Diigo/Delicious, etc. as well as convincing them to become friends on Twitter.
[14:19] == Ray_ [i=184cb0c7@gateway/web/freenode/x-nzwbgchlipsyhjyb] has quit [Client Quit]
[14:19] <@alexr> Love those suggestions, Rob.
[14:19] <robletcher> It's difficult, particularly for those floundering in a new job, to place the PD all in their own hands - I have to spoonfeed them in their first year
[14:20] <robletcher> Second year, though, they are ready to take control a bit
[14:20] <robletcher> Lurkers!
[14:21] == hiram [i=4854ef0d@gateway/web/freenode/x-vwykjrcaplmbmple] has joined #edtechtalk
[14:21] <robletcher> *applause*
[14:22] <MattSpence> Nice one guys
[14:22] <hiram> Sorry I'm late, just got out of class
