Wireless Connectivity in the Future - Flat Classroom Project
Fascinating video from a flat classroom student -- I love the scene with one student on the moon talking to another in the clouds. This is an excellent work from Heather in Kansas.

Digiteen Dream Team: New Protest
With class ending this week, my students want to once more go into Lively to express how they feel about this great service. They love it, although we are moving ahead to explore other options (which we'll announce in January) -- so, they want to have a virtual funeral for Lively which will happen this Thursday. Just check their blog and read this post from the students about what they are planning.
Again, this is a student driven project - they are currently reflecting on this process and will be sharing their thoughts about whether the protest was worth it and what they have learned. Stay tuned, the Digiteen Dream Team is a great student blog that will continue!2¢ Worth » So Now What Do We Do?
Excellent post for advocates of Web 2.0 to read from David Warlick - to answer the most common complaints. Excellent writing and well worth the read.
