You know it has been one of those weeks when I only manage ONE post here all week long. I think that is an all time low since I started iLearn Technology in 2007. Just wow.
Between starting a school and working out details for the Learning Genome it has been a busy week where I feel like life is moving at turtle speed. Let’s get these shows on the road already!
This is just a post to let you know that more useful tech tools WILL be coming your way, it just may take me a 3 day weekend to get back on top of life.
In the mean time…if you aren’t yet part of an online personal learning network, I can’t SHOUT it enough- you need one. All you have to do is sign up for Twitter, engage in conversation with other educators from around the world and BAM- your own personal learning network is born. It is brilliant, I can’t tell you how much I learn from my PLN every day. This week was particularly wonderful because I got to follow all the happenings of the ISTE conference. Even though I couldn’t be there, I could keep up with all the fun and learning. If you are so inclined to jump into Twitter and give it a try, be sure to drop me a hello (@ktenkely). I haven’t been great about tracking new followers lately but I always respond to @messages.
A ginormous thank you to all of you who wished me a happy birthday yesterday on Twitter, Facebook or by helping with this custom birthday present. Tears when I saw this beauty. Thank you!
Today I entered the Learning Genome (if you don’t know what in the world that is, feel free to click here and learn about it) in a grant contest to raise some funds. I would be grateful if you could vote and help spread the word like crazy. It is easy, just click the banner below 🙂
To all my friends in the US, Happy Independence Day!
