Today I have had a neat surprise and was reminded of a very important blogging tip, which of course I need to share!
Earlier this afternoon, I was busily scrolling through my tweetdeck when I came across a tweet from Kim Cofino saying:

I found the link to the list of nominees, and proceeded to check them [...]

My Secret Identity

Posted by: klbeasley | May 19, 2009 | 1 Comment |

I have a secret identity. One very few of my real-time friends know about. It is my life online.

Online I’m a blogger. I have several blogs, documenting my work with students and my learning in technology education. I read other people’s blogs, comment on them and learn from them on a daily basis.
Online I’m a [...]

I tried backchannel chat for the first time during keynote addresses at the EARCOS Teachers Conference: ETC09.
What is Backchannel Chat? It’s like note-taking at a lecture, but notes are shared with anyone who has the URL. They might be people in the room with you, but they could also be anywhere in the world. [...]

What’s in a (user)name?

Posted by: klbeasley | April 6, 2009 | 3 Comments |

Quite a lot, I’m beginning to think…
When I signed up with Twitter a year or so ago, I went with the username I have for my shared email account with my husband: klandmiles. It combined our names: mine (Keri-Lee) was shortened to KL and his name is Miles. K-L & Miles = klandmiles. It was [...]

The Maori (native New Zealanders) have a saying:
He aha te mea nui?
He tangata,
He tangata,
He tangata.
What is the most important thing?
It is people,
it is people,
it is people.
At the end of this 3 day conference at EARCOS in Sabah, Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia, I believe more than ever that this is true.
Sure, I had some great workshops with [...]

Playing Piggyback

Some days I can’t help feeling like I’m just piggybacking. My best ideas with ICT have been borrowed from other people’s best ideas, and I’m merely reproducing them in a slightly different way. I don’t feel much like an innovator, especially not when compared with many of the well-known edubloggers out there. [...]

Tweet, Tweet

When I first signed up for Twitter I won’t lie; I wasn’t overly impressed. I didn’t know who to follow, I didn’t know what to say. After all, surely the ’status update’ function of Facebook would do the same thing.
I persevered, followed more people, shared some interesting things I found and then all of [...]
