Thing 1 n 2

I guess I can see this blog as fulfilling 2 different purposes.  If I chose this to be just an "all about me" blog, I would tend towards techie ideas for teachers, like how to use Twitter, bit.ly & showing off the smartpen we've been using. 

If on the other hand, I use it for students...  Well, as an 8th grade physical science teacher, the only thing I can think of to use it for is a "kicking off" point for students.  For instance, read this article (with link) and comment your reaction to it.  It's an interesting theory to work in other links, but without the ability to link to any streaming media, or flash videos, it eliminates whole sections of the web that would certainly help students with reading difficulties.

Let's just say I'm keeping an open, yet somewhat skeptical mind....
