19:05:42  sharonp ->  however, at least the issue is raised
19:05:46  Wendy ->  Hi all.  I had to step away to grab some headphones.

19:07:37  courosa ->  When the first word from an African child is "Google" we should be disturbed, not please. let's be critical, is this progress? tech colonialism? What is progress?
19:07:48  courosa ->  Greed!
19:08:23  jepcke ->  Where are their links to be found? "In our links section..."
19:08:31  Gary ->  Chicago economics?
19:08:33  fiona_banjer ->  It's like computers being put into classrooms with teachers who don't understand what they can do.
19:08:36  dave ->  http://del.icio.us/edtechtalk/20080106
19:08:45  jepcke ->  Thnx Dave

19:08:54  datruss ->  DaveT
19:09:12  Durff ->  welcome back
19:09:37  MizMercer ->  Isn't this the crux of the issue with OLPC? It's got some WONDERFUL design elements, but the implementation plan sucks.
19:09:52  Durff ->  hi thespian
19:10:03  datruss ->  When does it start? Sound? (forgive the newbie)
19:10:05  MizMercer ->  Would be GREAT!
19:10:12  Gary ->  But "shock therapy" econimics demands that it be commercialized.
19:10:15  Durff ->  i would have to agree with dave - they do have a responsibility
19:10:20  Cathy E ->  audio is bumpy, is it just me?
19:10:23  JenM ->  Scoble Scuffle: http://www.news.com/8301-13577_3-9839474-36.html?tag=nefd.top
19:10:27  JenW ->  did I lose sound??
19:10:28  Sarah S ->  Is anyone else getting audio drop for 5-10 sec intervals?
19:10:34  fiona_banjer ->  SOund is jumpy for me too.
19:10:35  JenW ->  yes,
19:10:35  MizMercer ->   I am losing sound
19:10:37  jessmc ->  my sound coming and going
19:10:38  Durff ->  no Cathy - audio is in and out

19:12:36  Durff ->  hi wendy
19:13:06  Durff ->  hi lornacos
19:13:12  sharonp ->  John was nice - he "needed" to help me out with something
19:13:14  Durff ->  hi alice
19:13:21  alicebarr ->  hi durff
19:13:26  sharonp ->  and that is why he set up a FB account
19:13:28  alicebarr ->  hi tired skiier
19:13:37  jeff ->  http://www.dataportability.org/
19:13:40  MizMercer ->  Hi Lisa
19:13:44  Sarah S ->  Hi there Alice
19:13:45  Durff ->  keep the snow up there
19:13:51  Durff ->  hi alice
19:13:51  cheryloakes-tired skier ->  Hi Alice, happy traveler alicebarr
19:13:53  alicebarr ->  Hi Sarah!
19:13:55  MizMercer ->  Oh oh, need another color
19:13:59  alexr ->  Can't listen live and be a good Dad.  Will listen to the podcast.  Take care all.
19:14:11  jomcleay ->  Hello Alice Barr
19:14:12  alicebarr ->  Hi durff
19:14:17  alicebarr ->  Hi Jo
19:14:32  alicebarr ->  Everyone is here! :D
19:14:35  MizMercer ->  Oops, sorry for taking your hellos Alice Barr
19:14:41  Durff ->  hi math teacher
19:14:46  dave ->  http://davecormier.com/edblog/2007/12/30/the-difference-between-free-and...
19:14:51  sharonp ->  cool....all of us creating content... what happens when something goes belly up?
19:14:56  courosa ->  Ning's open source code is available, may be vulnerable, but also, you could technically host it yourself.
19:15:12  alicebarr ->  Oops Sorry I took yours too MizMercer!
19:15:20  JohnS ->   Right, Alec. It's free beer vs free speech
19:15:20  Durff ->  no body besides them?
19:15:27  courosa ->  Question: What are we worried about? What is the worst case scenario?
19:15:37  mjmonty ->  nobody knows how safe ANYTHING is...
19:15:50  MizMercer ->  NEXT...
19:15:55  sharonp ->  thanks Alec.... !
19:15:56  Durff ->  crossing the street isn't safe
19:15:58  courosa ->  the code is available ... Ning is just hosted, you can actually download the source ... yes, it is open source.
19:16:03  mjmonty ->  that is a silly statement to me
19:16:08  jeff ->  http://www.thethinkingstick.com/?p=610  The Thinking Stick » ‘08 The ‘Live Web’
19:16:29  JenW ->  I just don't like that NING would charge me $20 a month to take the ads off
19:16:35  JenW ->  but I am enjoying our conversations on the NING
19:16:50  jomcleay ->  Jeff that is the best thing for me
19:17:01  dave ->  Alec... can you give me a link to opensource ning?
19:17:03  dave ->  can't find
19:17:07  jomcleay ->  that it is live I mean
19:17:27  sharonp ->  It is unfortunately another argument against using web environments for education - as if the IT directors I talk to don't have enough reasons not to use them!
19:17:45  MizMercer ->  I have an interview with Brian Crosby that I'm still trying to pull down.
19:17:52  MizMercer ->  from USTREAM
19:17:57  fiona_banjer ->  We don't have privacy issues, it's blocked anyway LOL
19:17:58  Cathy E ->  And why do all those people on UStream leave their stream running and they are gone and the room is dark
19:18:04  sharonp ->  live videostreaming of students scares me
19:18:37  alicebarr ->  But how else will students learn to ask appropriate questions?
19:18:48  alicebarr ->  How about setting the parameters first?
19:18:59  sharonp ->  live videostreaming of students that is wide open on the net - BIG liability issues
19:19:20  Durff ->  ladies and gentlemen, joyce valenza has entered the room!
19:19:24  joycevalenza ->  we've had author visits where the authors said controversial things.
19:19:29  joycevalenza ->  shucks
19:19:31  sharonp ->  having open student content posted online is one thing - livestreaming is another
19:19:45  joycevalenza ->  Discussion after mitigated the problems
19:19:52  joycevalenza ->  there is never a guarantee
19:19:53  mjmonty ->  are there liability issues of putting kids photos along with first and last names in local paper??
19:20:10  jepcke ->  isn't live streaming a part of the web permissions? Permission to be allowed to photgraph, videotape kids, etc
19:20:18  sharonp ->  LOL
19:20:21  jeff ->  http://davecormier.com/
19:20:23  mjmonty ->  I would submit that there are more risks via local paper publication
19:20:26  sharonp ->  you rotter....
19:20:27  Durff ->  hi techsavvy
19:20:35  TechSavvy ->  Hi
19:20:38  joycevalenza ->  wow!
19:20:39  datruss ->  wiki's are the same issue because of the 'History'
19:20:41  jepcke ->  our district considers that to be all the same
19:21:03  Gary ->  No one seems to worry about follow-up during radio talk-shows - why the need on the web?
19:21:14  courosa ->  Will find link Dave, having trouble with /live tonight
19:21:23  jomcleay ->  Hi Joyce
19:21:23  sharonp ->  @mjmonty - I believe permissions are needed for print publications - yes
19:21:31  Durff ->  fear of the unknown Gary
19:21:54  Durff ->  hi joyce
19:22:01  jeff ->  what kind of troubles with /live?
19:22:02  fiona_banjer ->  What time does this chat finish?
19:22:13  MizMercer ->  top of the hour
19:22:14  joyce seitzinger ->  hi durff
19:22:21  fiona_banjer ->  Thanks.
19:22:22  Gary ->  But those that use these features "know"
19:22:22  Durff ->  the show is 7-8
19:22:24  JohnS ->  Apologies for plugging myself: http://staff.bbhcsd.org/schinkerj/archives/2007/12/30/professional-growth/
19:22:32  joyce seitzinger ->  i've missed most of the session : (
19:22:36  jomcleay ->  or 11 to 12
19:22:49  fiona_banjer ->  10 to 11 in Brisbane LOL
19:22:58  Durff ->  depending on how you look at it
19:23:04  jomcleay ->  :D
19:23:05  jepcke ->  rather than ignoring it, I would rather use it as an opportunity to teach the kids what is appropriate
19:23:06  joyce seitzinger ->  hi mrs banjer!
19:23:20  sharonp ->  I agree JOhn - presented this topic at Illinois Online Conf last year
19:23:28  sharonp ->  pre-twitter!
19:23:34  joycevalenza ->  problem is I can't help them develop the kind of amazing network I have before they lose interest
19:23:38  fiona_banjer ->  Hi !! How are your assignments going??
19:23:49  Durff ->  speak for yourself john
19:23:56  JohnS ->  :-)
19:23:58  joycevalenza ->  it's not the tech, but maybe who to include/follow
19:24:04  courosa ->  OK ... on Ning, if you are a network creator (which I am), when you go to manage, you will see a link to "request access to your network's code" ... then they say they will send you the code within 48 hours. I would send a screenshot but can't paste anything into this field from a Mac.
19:24:05  joycevalenza ->  join
19:24:31  MizMercer ->  John S.: California had individual plans for teacher prof dev....
19:24:46  MizMercer ->  They've elimnated PD requirement for renewal
19:24:49  fiona_banjer ->  Hi nzchrissy!
19:24:52  sharonp ->  It is about developing relationships .... I have observed that those who don't do well developing a f2f professional/social relationship - don't do well with online networking
19:24:53  CdnMathTeacher ->  joycevalenza - I followed people who presented at a unconference and then followed the people they followed.
19:25:02  Durff ->  hi murcha
19:25:05  jomcleay ->  Hi nzchrissy
19:25:07  Durff ->  hi chrissy
19:25:08  joycevalenza ->  cool!
19:25:11  nzchrissy ->  Hello everyone
19:25:14  CdnMathTeacher ->  I've only been on Twitter for about 2 months and have learned so much
19:25:22  MizMercer ->  Because with saleary structure, you're going to do professional development on your own
19:25:29  cheryloakes-tired skier ->  31 folks here chatting on a Sun. evening/Mon morning:-)
19:25:31  MizMercer ->  JOHN: They have eliminated those plans
19:25:34  murcha ->  hello I am Anne (murcha) from Australia and this is my first time on so I will sit back and "listen"!!
19:25:38  sharonp ->  @CdnMathTeacher - and we are generally really nice peeps on this network - very welcoming to newbies
19:25:43  Cathy E ->  We have Individual plans for teachers too - every year
19:25:44  MizMercer ->  now NO PD is needed for renewal.
19:25:45  fiona_banjer ->  Hello Anne
19:25:47  joyce seitzinger ->  @fionabanjer uhm, i'm procrastanating like listening to ed tech talk
19:25:48  CdnMathTeacher ->  Exactly!

19:34:00  sharonp ->  It's a little tricky.... it is a pdf link from Thunderbird
19:34:01  sroseman ->  dragging the link solves the problem with Macs when you can't copy and paste

19:34:18  Durff ->  audio left
19:34:20  MizMercer ->  Cutting in and out...

19:35:33  Durff ->  bye cheryl
19:35:41  courosa ->  check out tangler.com ... it's very new, but goes from discussion forum to chat ... not sure if it is quite appropriate, but quite neat.

19:37:31  sharonp ->  that is going to be aninteresting read
19:38:05  dave ->  http://unltdworld.com/
19:38:15  fiona_banjer ->  I have posted my assignments for MEd in blog. Then thought may not be acceptable practice.  ANy thoughts? I find that issues I raise are commented on later - e.g. communication links being essential to move teachers forward with IT.
19:39:03  lparisi ->  Hello all
19:39:12  sharonp ->  @fiona - have you considered using a wiki for that? Or ning, perhaps? It will help organize the material a bit more
19:39:22  JohnS ->  fiona: I would probably be doing that too if I were in grad school right now
19:39:35  nzchrissy ->  Hey Lisa
19:39:37  MizMercer ->  Hi Lisa
19:39:40  lparisi ->  Hi Chrissy

19:40:07  joyce seitzinger ->  @fiona think it only makes sense these days
19:40:11  guest256 ->  Fiona - What's your goal in posting those assignments?  Getting feedback on the assignment or getting help for them or what?
19:40:23  sharonp ->  Alec has some great speakers lined up ....
19:40:28  alicebarr ->  @lparisi Hi Lisa if you mean me

19:43:08  MizMercer ->  Do you EVER run out of nasty things to do?
19:43:21  Durff ->  dave never does
19:43:35  fiona_banjer ->  Love the bus concept. My husband drives school buses as part of his job. I've observed a very marked difference in behaviour from classroom to bus line!
19:44:12  lparisi ->  hi Karen
19:44:14  Gary ->  No teacher would ever become a bus driver .....
19:44:17  ehelfant ->  thanks, great as always but the Hawaii sun is beckoning
19:44:18  joyce seitzinger ->  how are the presenters talking together, skype and the skype sound is fed to ustream? i'm interested in having multiple hosts at webcast like this

19:53:37  jeff ->  http://mahalo.com/

19:57:29  JohnS ->  but we can't see it unless your kid is our friend, right Sharon?
19:57:31  betchaboy ->  maybe politicians and school administrators should have to have the same level of internet filtering as school do.
19:57:41  sharonp ->  wow, these folks have been busy over the holidays!
19:58:04  JohnS ->  bechaboy: in my school, they do. on purpose.
19:58:04  sharonp ->  you know, it is tagged with MY name, so maybe if you are MY friend??

19:58:50  joyce seitzinger ->  @betchaby and IT Administrators should limit themselves as well!
19:58:53  Gary ->  Your Google calendar has two effects - allows you to know when something happens but makes you feel guilty if you miss.
19:58:58  JohnS ->  If they don't live in the same world as the students and teachers, they don't understand the problems.
