- I'm one of those early adopters who feels a little like Cassandra, predicting the future and not being believed.
I currently work with medical school faculty who are making the transition to more student centered learning. As a side initiative, I'm moving them towards using technology for teaching.

- Hi Deirdre, I would love to get your feedback on Recess if you can spare a few minutes. The link is www.meetatrecess.com. I'm talking to schools every day about integrating social networking into curriculum to engage students.

- thanks, Deirdre - and listen, speaking of Carter, have you read the INCREDIBLE book by Arthur Phillips, The Egyptologist? it's really great, one of the best books I've read in the past several years. Carter haunts the book... :-)
here's a review:

- hi Deirdre! I saw your post on Triumph of Science over Sexism last week - I thought it was GREAT. I teach folklore and mythology so I saved a link to it to share with my students when school starts in the fall (Egypt is one of the first units we do in class)

I used Apple's Keynote and iMovie (which comes with Mac OS X) to make it - it isn't that difficult if you have the right tools :)

- Someone just send me a link to Ted Ideas worth spreading. TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from those three worlds. Since then its scope has become ever broader. http://www.ted.com/index.php/
