Hi George,
ReplyDeleteI was startled to see a comment,I am so used to blogging without an audience. I use my blog as a record of online tools I think I (or teachers I work with) can use. As you can see it is not profound, but it has been useful for me. I conduct "Using web 2.0" classes for the teachers at my school, and I share my blog with them as well.
I got started on this journey through the CSLA 21 things that you are doing now. I hope this doesn't sound crazy, but that course was a big event in my learning life. I have learned so much since then.
I will follow your blog.
Hello Joan,
ReplyDeleteHappy to have you aboard looking forward to getting more comments as I move along with this project. I hope you are finding some useful things on my blog.
I get it clear idea about web hosting related information through this blog. All the points are explained very clearly.
