Extend the Conversation [Aug. 22, 2012, 12:32 a.m.]
On August 18, there was a great webinar with Sheri Edwards and Denise Krebs.
Extend the Conversation -- Jump In! Add your own bytes!
Denise and Sheri, middle school teachers (in Iowa and Washington State, respectively) invite you to dip your toes into the digital media flow. Each explains her struggle to join in the influx of information flooding the web, beginning with the risk to jump in and participate in various online platforms. By joining the conversation, Sheri and Denise have developed amazing friendships personally and collaborative projects professionally. Both teachers and students benefitted. Step by step, their paths met, their journey continued, and this webinar resulted. How did they start and why? Watch the archived webinar or peruse the information here.
