More...

That wasn't much of an introduction! I teach ELA at the middle school and would love to use more diverse technology in my class.

I do plenty of powerpoint presentations and I use the projector quite frequently. However, I'd love to make use of this type of technology with the laptops in class.

    Over the last six months I have been thinking about presentation skills. I mentioned I had learned a lot from Garr Reynolds, Presentation Zen.

    Diigo, a social bookmarking tool allows me to save useful sites. Some I tagged with "garr," for Garr Reynolds. Here is a link to the bookmarks I have saved. http://www.diigo.com/user/drichards/garr

    Collecting information, filtering it, and sharing it are all hallmarks of 21st Century Teaching and Learning.

    If I then go to the community library for Diigo users and search for "garr reynolds," I get more information: http://tr.im/ARPb.

    A Google search brings up 130,000 hits on the Internet in .49 seconds: http://tr.im/ARQl

    Self-directed improvement is a lot easier in the 21st Century.
