Learning from others
On the Yahoo Groups list for classblogmeister Lorraine from New Zealand shares her reflection templates to use in blogging. She was inspired by reading Konrad’s post and has created a post/article reflection and a comment reflection. Her link led me to a great wiki that contains excellent info on their collaborative learning community. I really like this wiki. Thanks Lorraine for taking the time to share! Keep up the great work! And as you know, one link leads to another - here’s her blog. It’s a good read, too! One post was about the danger of embedded links. Look at the comments to see how our community responds! Here’s her follow up post on this issue. And of course I have always been a fan of SlideShare. Look how they address the dilemma here. I second Lorraine’s “thumbs up” to SlideShare.

Wow! It is so cool to see the connections made in this posting. I loved Konrad’s article and have let him know that he has already made a difference to us. It came at just the right time for me and for others that I am working with.
As a cluster of primary schools in the Rotorua area (NZ) we are just in the early stages of our collaborative learning community. It will be brilliant to have others beyond our physical locale involved in our cluster wiki, enriching our journey. I’m really excited by the opportunities and would love some across the globe interactions to occur. We have classes keen to be involved in online projects etc. e.g. If anyone would like a buddy class for their blogging projects, please check out our blog links in the wiki too.
Thank you for your contact Anne. I have added your blog to our bloglines and will enjoy popping back in to read more.
With Best Wishes
Lorraine
