We're getting underway with another section of the Academy. We've discussed having meetings at 9:00 PM Thursdays [during the same hour as EdTechBrainstorm]; however, we're interested in having webcasts at times that work for interested interns.

This weekend we're going to have an open house World Date and Time here

Another edition of "Student Tech Talk." Listen to a small group of students talk a little bit about politics and educational technology.  This is a group of students that I'm hoping will continue with the world of webcasting as they move into high school next year.  If you listen to them I'll think you'll agree that they have some pretty awesome webcasting skills!!

Enjoy! 

First Stop of People and places was Adelaide. We had a pleasant chat with Michael Coghlan about his home town and his travels around the world. A conversation worth listening to.  http://peopleandplaces.bloxi.jp/

Here it is!  My Gradcast!  A very special Thank You to Laura Vedeen for being my guest, and to all who participated and helped me out along the way! Here is the link to my portfolio! 

Please see attached for chat log!

This is a conversation with three of my students about technology, society and culture.  My goal with these student webcasts is to kind of sit back and let the students take over.  So they do the intro, the outro, and hopefully moderate the flow of the conversation.

Here it is!  My third interncast!  This file is a recording of a final review session I held for students in my KNR 113 Personal Fitness class at Illinois State University.  I did have a couple of students Skype in with their questions, however, the majority of students asked their questions through the chat room.  Laura Vedeen, my graduate assistant, assisted as my "co-host."

Earthcast 2008 Debrief
April 27, 2008

Joined in progress, not great audio quality, no streamer audio, but a recap of an awesome webcastathon, and the conception of a new Worldbridges community, Earthbridges.

We had another "Tech Talk" with a small little student webcasting team that I'm trying to develop.  A special shout out to Durff, Scott Meech, JRod (Jose), hfeldman, and James Sigler for listening in and participating in the chat.  The student team did a wonderful job, taking both the intro and outro for the show.  I was simply there to scaffold the conversation and be the streaming robot.  Unfortunately, I didn't archive the conversation!  It is too bad, because we really had a nice conversation about jailbreaking the iPhone, portable/cheap computers, and
