I’ve been struggling to find a suitable slab of time for thoughtful blogging as the term has started off in a flurry of impending deadlines and planning for near future events.

Well, our state conference is over for another year and even though I made a few attempts to live blog events, a number of factors (mainly self created) tended to interfere. I was involved as a presenter on four occasions and after you take the keynotes out of the equation, there wasn’t much to attend [...]

Just a quick thank you to the wonderful hosts of the WOW 2.0 for the excellent opportunity to be part of the “Over The Top Educators From Down Under” webcast. It was a privilege to be part of a conversation that enables global educational collaboration and I’m glad that a casual Skype chat with Vicki [...]
Disclaimer: I am fully aware of the irony of following a post calling for greater global understanding with one that is full of colloquial cliches and references but as I’ve stated many times on this blog before, we are all hypocrites somewhere along the line. And I am trying (very trying at times) to be [...]
