2011-04-28 19:45:26 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: you'll have to check out some Cubs games
2011-04-28 19:46:37 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: I love that both of you young men have done this thoughtful research!
2011-04-28 19:47:50 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: the hardest part about college is the realization that you have a ton of descretionary time in comparison to HS...
2011-04-28 19:48:04 [Message] alicebarr -> EdTechTalk: @nanga We do all of our technology through our courses.
2011-04-28 19:48:21 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: @alice...great yarmouth school home page as well: http://www.yarmouthschools.org/
2011-04-28 19:48:45 [Message] alicebarr -> EdTechTalk: Thanks you, Mike, our middle school integrator kind of developed the shells
2011-04-28 19:49:04 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: Hopefully it isn't the final show!!!
2011-04-28 19:49:29 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: We will cheer you both on, this won't be the final show, just final HS show.

2011-04-28 19:50:55 [Message] MGA -> EdTechTalk: Great show and it would be great to keep the conversation going next year!
2011-04-28 19:52:06 [Message] alicebarr -> EdTechTalk: @MGA I agree!
2011-04-28 19:53:23 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: I've said it before...if you're a teacher and you don't give students interesting problems to work on that require computers, students will drift.
2011-04-28 19:53:49 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: eg, if the most interesting thing you have students do in your classroom with laptops is take notes, then many will drift to other things.
2011-04-28 19:53:59 [Message] alicebarr -> EdTechTalk: @Matt I couldn't agree more
2011-04-28 19:54:05 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: Yes Matt, live is more interesting than most schools. I often think, where would I be? online, listening, daydreaming
2011-04-28 19:54:16 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: alternately, if you need their full, undivided attention, ask them to close their laptops.
2011-04-28 19:54:32 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: yes, lids down time
2011-04-28 19:54:56 [Message] BenN Host -> EdTechTalk: its interesting, lids down works 100% of the time within seconds
2011-04-28 19:55:04 [Message] BenN Host -> EdTechTalk: i've never seen a student protest
2011-04-28 19:55:12 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: if professors don't mix up their instructional design, boredom will kick in...
2011-04-28 19:57:17 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: how can computers be used to develop meta-cognition in students??
2011-04-28 19:57:53 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: I think, the add on story or finish the sentence starter.
2011-04-28 19:58:27 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: where students have to be sure certain points are made
2011-04-28 19:58:28 [Message] BenN Host -> EdTechTalk: tinyurl.com/yhsstudentambassadors i believe is the link
2011-04-28 19:58:55 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: What a great program with a student voice!
2011-04-28 19:59:20 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: I have a question. How many visitors do you have in a month? Where are the visitors from?
2011-04-28 20:00:52 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: Oh, my you are an international school!!!
2011-04-28 20:02:13 [Message] alicebarr -> EdTechTalk: It's great to see the students point out positive aspects of the school, it helps us know what's working well and areas we can improve.
2011-04-28 20:04:13 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: I had a visitor on campus today and we were meeting with a group of students. They were ranting a bit about how distracting the laptops are. I asked how many students wanted to give up their laptop...not one said they wanted to give it up :)
2011-04-28 20:04:26 [Message] alicebarr -> EdTechTalk: :)
2011-04-28 20:04:42 [Message] MGA -> EdTechTalk: It also supports and builds community in the context of a real life experience.
2011-04-28 20:04:51 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: good question, i wonder what they meant by distracting?
2011-04-28 20:05:56 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: yes, I wouldn've like to drill deeper on that. I'm not sure what they mean by distracting
2011-04-28 20:06:13 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: I'm not happy with Cisco right now...
2011-04-28 20:06:32 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: boo hiss cisco about their FLIP decision.
2011-04-28 20:06:45 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: they should remember that K12 schools buy a ton of flips and expensive networking gear.
2011-04-28 20:07:32 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: I'm going to give serious consideration to Aruba or Xirrus for our future wireless networking needs...Cisco used to be the gold standard, but others have caught up for a fraction of the $$$
2011-04-28 20:07:52 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: let's hear the apple news!!!!
2011-04-28 20:07:56 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: Matt, our 9th graders like lecture over a hands on project. I reflected on this and I think they want to sit and blend, rather than research, think and form an opinion.
2011-04-28 20:08:06 [Message] alicebarr -> EdTechTalk: WE are all Cisco networking too
2011-04-28 20:08:36 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: I have a meeting with a Cisco rep next week and I'm going to let her know that we are considering other options for sure
2011-04-28 20:08:42 [Message] alicebarr -> EdTechTalk: They said they couldn't find the teacher in many classrooms. Made me veery proud :)
2011-04-28 20:08:55 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: What a compliment!
2011-04-28 20:09:40 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: @cheryl...yes, that is pretty true of our students as well. Ambiguity is something we all struggle with a bit...
2011-04-28 20:10:00 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: definitely a compliment, Alice!
2011-04-28 20:10:13 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: Meanwhile, Matt, I love being off kilter, so ambiguity rocks
2011-04-28 20:11:28 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: Learning to find moments of clarity in times of ambiguity is a real skill. Formulaic/algorithmic learning doesn't give students the chance to learn this.
2011-04-28 20:11:53 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: I'm with you, Cheryl...I'm quite happy w/the messiness of it all.
2011-04-28 20:13:16 [Message] cheryloakes~ -> EdTechTalk: what is your twitter?

2011-04-28 20:14:19 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: our english teacher never posts stuff, but follows authors, professors, universities, etc...she finds it to be super useful as a way to find useful information.
2011-04-28 20:14:29 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: what is the ben and ben twitter??
2011-04-28 20:14:58 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: Google must be really concerned about social search versus keyword search

2011-04-28 20:18:58 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: any interest in doing college radio??
2011-04-28 20:21:20 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: one of my former students does college radio at Georgetown...she has her own music show.
2011-04-28 20:21:50 [Message] alicebarr -> EdTechTalk: Oh very cool Matt. Can you get it on iTunes too?
2011-04-28 20:22:26 [Message] matt montagne -> EdTechTalk: Georgetown radio doesn't actually archive...live stream only (they use shoutcast just like ETT)
