I’m trying to find other schools and districts who are really engaged in using Google Apps as a true LMS. I know a lot of folks are experimenting and using Google Apps broadly for learning, but I would love to connect a few schools/districts together in a hangout to discuss the systems to support this in more than a single classroom or team of teachers. 

Who is doing this work at the district (or schoolwide) level??

I think this “community message” is a great example of how you encourage the right kinds of posts and interactions.

Welcome to all of the new members of this community who have joined us over the past month! We’re so excited to see this community grow and flourish. A few words about postings and sharings here…  

Many times, a post that has been shared to multiple communities advertising an event or product gets flagged as spam. I typically don’t allow those types of messages to post in this community.

You are encouraged to include a narrative/message to accompany your link if you’re sharing a great learning opportunity, conference, your experience with a product, etc. for the community members here. 

If you choose to share a blog post you’ve written, that’s great, just know that if it’s shared to multiple communities with no message specific to our members, it may get flagged as spam. Post with intent. Are you looking for feedback on your post? Just want to share some great work you’ve been doing or something exciting going on in your school? Then say so!

Please also try to use the most appropriate category for your post. 

I have been so impressed with the level of support you’ve provided one another. I love that so many people respond to queries and questions and that conversations are emerging in so many posts! 

Thank you all for respecting and contributing to this learning community! Happy New Year!

Do you think in communities?

Don’t worry! I used the google glass on the dashboard so I don’t have to hold anything and I can look straight ahead at the road. 

I realized yesterday that I think in terms of communities or groups, now. Whenever I am learning something new, I am thinking about which audience it makes sense for. Do you do this, and if so, how does it affect your learning (or your students’ learning)?

I did a quick CarCast today on why EdCamp is so exciting to me.

Essentially, it boils down to the idea that putting together a learning experience doesn’t have to be hard, and we should allow for a lot more room for co-creation whenever we do it. 

Anyway, I’m excited to be a part of this with you all.

Why EdCamp Denver is Exciting to Me

Putting together a learning event doesn’t have to be hard, but it has taken me a long time to figure this out.

It makes me wonder, ‘What else can we not OVER PLAN in order to give participants more room to co-create and choose their learning’?
