The Collaborative Commons: Classroom Management Portal
Brian Mannix writes about his classroom monitoring portal that he has set up. He has done a very good job of this. This is an online classroom management strategy that Julie and I will be discussing a bit in the new book from Pearson Publishing in January 2012. Brian as part of our certified teacher program has seen a preview of this book.

Teachers' Views on Technology in the Classroom - Video Feature - NYTimes.com
Some great videos including one by the American School of Bombay that features a connection facilitated by the Flat Classroom work we've done in India. Lots of great work here. I think the only thing that bothered me a bit is to see kids typing slowly with two fingers when they could know how to type properly and be at least 2-3 times more productive. Great videos.
