Thanks, Kim.
Hopefully, I'll be able to attend in person. I would like to get some of my colleagues to join in, as well, since we'd have to be at school to participate. I'd barely have time to drive home, so it's better I stay in…
This webinar on media literacy sounds interesting and valuable. I hope I'll be able to attend. I also hope it will be recorded just in case there is a problem.
Rebecca - you did a great job moderating the webinar. I am so glad I got home in time to participate. This is definitely on my to-do list before the spring crocus peek up from the frozen ground - got 24 inches of snow in my community yesterday and…

I just attended the webinar on collaboration hosted by Rebecca Lawson. For some reason, Davilla could not attend. Rebecca did a great job.
Hi, Rebecca. As I said, I don't have classes of my own, so depending on the time of the collaboration, I would have to see if I could get one of my subject area teachers to free up their class to join the collaboration at the assigned time. We…
This sounds really good. I am still hoping to find a way to orchestrate a collaborative experience for some of the kids at my middle school with students in another part of the US or even the world. Since I am a computer technology integration…
Our teacher book club discussed this book back in June. I wasn't able to attend, but I got a good overview of the book by reading all the reviews on Amazon. I sent the link to some of the book club members. Hopefully, I can talk a few into…

Thanks for the feedback. Glad to know you are finding the site helpful. If you are interested in exploring how to engage a staff (say, your science teachers) together, here, on the site, we'd be very interested. For example: set up targeted PD for the group; establish a "group" here on MSP2 where your teachers could "meet" and discuss curriculum, pedagogy, or assessment issues specific to the district.
And I'm interested to figure out how to engage kids with scientists (as is Kim!).
Hi Carolyn - So glad you've chosen to join the MSP2 social network. I see that you can help with integrating technology. Would you be interested in sharing at one of our webinar events? We really want our members to share knowledge with each other. Welcome! Kim
