"Hi Robin
It is a gradual process as so many people are at different points on the continuum of acceptance. I'm sure that there are some who still have a form of 'philosophical objection' to the 'intrusion' of the internet into the known world of…"

Hi Roger, good to meet you. Have been checking out your blog and I see we are interested in some of the same things. We also have a friend in common in Judy (although I have not yet met her f2f). I do love Ning.

Hi Roger, nice to 'meet up' with a more or less local aussie. Glad you like things on HeyJude - and glad if you share and mention my blog too! Cheers, Judy

Hello Roger
I do understand it takes time, but I work in a K-12 district where all teachers and admin have had laptops for 8 years and I still do not really have an administrator who models best practices. I am not sure how to move administrators into using the technology that is always available, I still have them using overheads for their faculty meetings...Teachers feel the laptops are "theirs" and do not use them in their teaching practices, more for email. I have some teachers who do use any and all technology they can get their hands on, but when they are observed the principals have no idea what they are doing or what the benefit is.
I am thinking of approaching one principal this summer to see if he would be interested in starting a wiki for DI discussions in his building, a way for teachers to post successes and challenges with different approaches they try. Not sure how else to make a dent in the current practice, any advise would be appreciated. thank you. Robin

Hello Roger nice to meet you. I work in a K-12 district as an instructional technology specialist. I would with teachers and students in Pennsylvania. I wish our principals would model the use of technology more, maybe I can learn from you how to manage to engage principals into using and modeling technology for their teachers. Robin
