Comic Life for Educators


I kind of missed the boat over the past few years on the software, "Comic Life." Here at my new school we have a site license for this program and I hope to begin experimenting with it and using it more in the next few weeks. Today I found out about an interesting resource co-written by Judi Epcke that I'm going to try to pick up pretty soon. For more info on this resource, visit the publisher's website.

Blog Update

Well, it has been nearly two months since I've posted anything of interest here. This is primarily due to the fact that my wife and I just relocated from the Milwaukee area to the San Francisco Bay Area, where I'll be working as the instructional technology coordinator (grades 6-12) for the Castilleja School, which is located in Palo Alto.

I've been thinking about whether or not I'm going to keep my blog at blogger, what I should change the focus/name of my blog to, etc. If I was still at University School of Milwaukee I most likely would've moved my blog space over to the WordPress Multiple User network that we've been constructing with our consultant, "Compujeramey on Twitter," this summer (this project is really turning out nicely...it creates the capacity for all students and teachers at USM to have their own personal blog space. I'll most likely keep my blog space here for a while, but hopefully in the next week or so I'll have an idea of how I would like to proceed.
