Edublog Awards 2006
The Edublog Awards 2006 nominations are in! Take a look! Voting closes midnight GMT Saturday 16 December 2006. It is exciting to go through the list and while I know many on the list there are always many that I don’t know. This is so amazing to me because I really try to follow all the new educational blogs. Hmmmm, wonder what else is out there that I’m missing? That’s why it’s so important that we blog to each other about the good work going on in many places. The best part of this truly is the promotion of excellence in the educational use of social software. I wish the best to all the nominees! I say to all edubloggers worldwide keep up the great work you are doing in your quest to make a difference with your students and to promote needed changes in our educational system. My hat is off to each and every one of you!

I’ve been reading your blog for a few months and appreciate the great resources in your posts. I work at Punahou School in Honolulu, and a few of us in the English department have started our own blogs, exploring the possibilities. Next semester, we’ll get the students started with their own blogs, using them as digital commonplace books and forums for discussion, amongst other things we’re imagining. Thanks again.

Hi. I enjoy reading about how others are using podcasts and weblogs as this is something I am just starting to do. I do write a blog on teaching and classroom management that is primarily aimed at college professors but which is also read by high school and middle school teachers. I would appreciate your recommending it to anyone you think might be interested. It’s at http://www.delaneykirk.com
Thanks!
