At 4:04pm on February 27, 2008, Joan Schlegelmilch said…: Heard you all had a really good time at VSTE! Sorry I had to miss it.....I'm looking forward to you sharing some of what you learned on Monday at our meeting.

At 7:23pm on February 22, 2008, Janene Gorham said…: Hey John. Your teachers did a photostory project. They also learned how to use their Flip video camera and did a little video intro to their project and put both together using Moviemaker. They were great!

Where is Tom's Ning? I'm bugging Donna about it too...

Glad your Ning is all set up and going strong. See ya on Sunday bright and early. I got a note about volunteering. We get a groovy t-shirt!!!!

At 10:15pm on February 20, 2008, John Maher said…: I have PhotoStory on all the school's computers but it is seldom used. I REALLY think we need to have a Portfolio for teachers where once each semester they incorporate some technology into a classroom session. Not too threatening, but at least a slight push. Then perhaps you could have video streaming one semester, web research/information another, etc. Over time it could provide inducements live flash drives or whatever to significant lessons or examples.

At 10:09pm on February 20, 2008, Janene Gorham said…: Dig storytelling is at Hermitage. We divide up the parts- my main focus is on photostory. Joan does MovieMaker and Michelle does Web Blender. Joan incorporates the flip camera into the MovieMaker part.

At 10:06pm on February 20, 2008, John Maher said…: I concur with simple is better. My two attendees are well prepared for what they want to accomplish. I started planning with them when it was first announced. Wanda has seen MovieMaker, I'm very familiar with it and tried to ensure she and Kathy have clips, photos, material and some sound files they want to incorporate. Tom and I are driving together tomorrow. Where's your class and are you conducting it?
