Live report from the Computer Using Educators Conference in Palm Springs, CA.

Another in our series of virtual staff lounges here at EdTechTalk. This week I'm joined by Jennifer Wagner, Brad Hicks and James Sigler for a discussion about web-based projects and how technology is and can be used in the classroom and for professional development.

Chat Transcript:

This week I'm joined by Brad Hicks and Paul Reid of Digital Chalkie fame for some thoughts on edtech from a "down under" perspective. We talk about tools for educators (e.g., Gmail and Meraki) and discuss plans for the coming year.

Best wishes for a Happy New Year and plan to join us for Brainstorms in 2008!

This week I talk with Arthus about his thoughts on some online and web-based tools and how they might be used in K-12 education.

We discuss Twitter, Facebook, Google Maps and Gmail and issues related to access and use of these tools in Arthus' experience as a high-school student.

I'm joined by Jeff Lebow and Jennifer Maddrell who help me trouble-shoot my audio "issues" and experiment with ustream and operator11 video.

We were also joined by Arthus and Durff in the chat room.
