19:21:06  JenniferW ->  ahhh -- gotcha
19:21:14  Durff ->  oh, I thought you knew
19:21:17  JenniferW ->  it was HARD to follow -- too many people chatting  :):):)

19:21:28  JenniferW ->  I went -- but I didn't need to
19:21:34  JenniferW ->  Vicki found what??

19:41:44  JenniferW ->  way to go ALICE
19:42:18  Anne Leftwich ->  I think this is more along those lines that teachers observe things like this to be true as opposed to research
19:42:41  Anne Leftwich ->  Hi Jennifer!
19:42:54  JenniferW ->  anne -- do you have an email address??
19:43:05  Anne Leftwich ->  Yes, my email is [email protected]
19:43:07  JohnSchinker ->  You shouldn't have told anyone about that doctorate
19:43:12  JenniferW ->  LOL
19:43:36  JenniferW ->  NO WAY -- what if you like to write
19:43:41  Durff ->  she will never leve it down
19:43:44  alicemercer ->  Yeah, Anne, I think that it makes intuitive sense, but someone at some point added numbers and different numbers
19:43:49  Durff ->  oh no
19:43:56  JohnSchinker ->  You have to have tenure to publish a book? What a stupid rule
19:44:09  Durff ->  Skype just dropped me
19:44:12  JenniferW ->  boy LULU would go out of business if people had to have tenure
19:44:37  JohnSchinker ->  *grin*  I was just going to post that link
19:44:42  alicemercer ->  Well, that's a university or university publishing rule, no?
19:45:34  Durff ->  ok on stream anyone else booted out of Skype?
19:45:35  sroseman ->  wow...teachers ..all in the family
19:45:52  jeff ->  try calling back lisa
19:45:55  alicemercer ->  Okay, I think to that the person who posted the diagram is really concerned about effective instruction and in particular, LD students
19:45:57  JenniferW ->  so she is 27???
19:46:07  alicemercer ->  Anne, I'm a behaviorist.
19:46:14  jeff ->  +99001110002721586
19:46:18  Durff ->  I did. It won't go there
19:46:41  Anne Leftwich ->  http://www.coatt.org
19:47:07  alicemercer ->  I used to teach kids kicked out of regular school for behavior problems
19:47:37  Durff ->  nope, invalid number
19:47:48  Durff ->  it has an attitude
19:47:51  jeff ->  indeed
19:47:56  jeff ->  have you tried https://skypecasts.skype.com/skypecasts/skypecast/detailed.html?id_talk=...
19:48:02  Durff ->  i did
19:48:08  alicemercer ->  and I have an autistic (mild) son, so I use behavior mod. I find that there are few "pure" behaviorist teachers. Most do build intrinsic motivation whether than do it consciously or not.
19:48:29  alicemercer ->  OH PULEEZE
19:48:55  Durff ->  asperger's or autism?
19:48:59  JenniferW ->  Sorry, we could not find the Skypecast you are looking for. Back to Skypecasts home
19:49:08  JenniferW ->  that is what skype is telling me
19:49:54  jeff ->  skype is less and less reliable these days
19:50:02  sroseman ->  teachers value technology if it works for them and their students ..especially newish teachers
19:50:10  Anne Leftwich ->  Exactly!
19:50:13  JenniferW ->  but I am still okay being 30 seconds behind the REAL conversation
19:50:24  Gary ->  I had the same problem but it seems to be working now (Skype)
19:50:35  JenniferW ->  Anne Leftwich -- we need to have you on a Women of Web 2.0 -- chat -- I will send you info later!!
19:50:36  Anne Leftwich ->  I think that eclectic is the best way to go
19:50:38  jeff ->  hmmm, perhaps keep  trying
19:50:50  JenniferW ->  I shall try again
19:51:22  JenniferW ->  hmmm
19:51:32  JenniferW ->  real life sound -- so cool
19:53:34  Durff ->  there are buzz words and there is what workss
19:53:52  Durff ->  behavior mod works
19:53:56  sroseman ->  And Anne Leftwich, I want you as a guest on www.tappedin.org ..I offer K to 3+ Great Resources twice monthly sessions  ... at some point
19:55:16  JenniferW ->  where did we find Anne L???  so cool -- thanks EdTechTalk!!
19:55:17  sroseman ->  As a primary teacher for many years I couldn't survive without behaviour mod
19:56:05  JenniferW ->  Hey Sharon
19:56:31  sharonp ->  ack.... am I too late? Did I miss everything?
19:56:35  JenniferW ->  yep

20:00:51  alicemercer ->  Anne I need to pick your brain. I'm thinking of a masters program and I'm trying to figure out how to evaluate programs.
20:00:58  sroseman ->  and many profs require their students to participate in 2 or 3 events at tappedin
20:01:14  JenniferW ->  I have MANY teachers who have to participate in a project
20:01:19  JenniferW ->  who join Technospud Projects
20:01:22  alicemercer ->  I'm supposed to help some pre-service teachers in Kansas this summer on Classroom2.0

20:03:40  sharonp ->  well, I actually did go through with it with him - Laurence Peters (great name, eh!?)
20:03:51  JohnSchinker ->  Jen lives everywhere
20:03:51  JenM ->  I take the class online
20:04:03  JenniferW ->  I would take the class for credit non credit if I could
20:04:21  sharonp ->  what is a credit non-credit??
20:04:29  JenniferW ->  LOL -- meaning I don't have to pay
20:04:55  JenniferW ->  there is another way to say it besides credit no credit
20:05:06  JohnSchinker ->  Have you used moodle? Is sakai better/worse than that?
20:05:12  JenM ->  http://www.indiana.edu/~istde/here is the program web site

20:06:13  sharonp ->  sakai may figger big in my future
20:06:15  alicemercer ->  Tenure track, not tenured, right?
