Today while presenting I told people about the handout I had made and realized that I should attach it some way to this blog. However, there doesn't seem to be a way to put in an attachment, so here is the handout. The main thing is that it has links to other things that I wanted to share. I did not include the PowerPoint because it was mainly pictures that I was going to talk about and all of them can be seen in the blogs with explanations.
Mediterranean Odyssey Handout
http://2009-odyssey.blogspot.com - Turkey, Israel, Italy, and Greece
I see this as a chance for me to share what I see and learn as I travel. I hope by sharing the experience the trip will be rich for me AND for anyone who follows.
This is the fourth time that I have blogged while traveling. Each time I learn new things. All of the pictures and information from my past blogs are still available online.

Web 2.0 has made a huge difference in the possibilities for this kind of travel and collaboration. On this current trip I am trying out several widgets that participants can access and manipulate like a Google Map and a place for becoming a follower. I hope that people will make connections. I am also really glad for the opportunity to Skype with you!
Here are some good places to search for other projects that you can participate in OR to post your own projects that others might join:
Global Schoolhouse - http://globalschoolhouse.net -This is a long running site where you can place your project or find other projects and make connections. It also runs annual contests and has many other interesting resources
Teachers Connecting - http://teachersconnecting.com - This is a new site for teachers to connect to other teachers who are interested in similar things based on experience and comfort level. It is connected with podcast that is fantastic http://teachersconnecting.com/podcast/

Maybe you could use Scribd? It is a website that lets you post documents for sharing online. I just voted for your armadillo name. Sorry I haven't been keeping up with your journey but it looks fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThanks Joel, I just could not think of anything. I have used that before. I thought of using slideshare for the ppt, but really without comments it made no sense. I was going to use it as an organizer and visual to what I was going to share.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment.
