My brother recommended I might like this website.
He was entirely right. This post truly made my day. You can not
imagine just how much time I had spent for this information!
Thanks!

After your discussion about the Learning Creative Learning MOOC I thought of this blog I read recently which talks about the various reasons people enroll in MOOCs and why they may or may not be active in them. http://derekbruff.org/?p=2533
I also read somewhere (can’t find it now) that the thousands of people who sign up for a MOOC are like the people reading a class catalog entry and turning the page down to come back and review it to see if they are really interested. And then many decide they are not.
I’ve signed up for MOOCs and completed them and then barely scraped the surface of others – sometimes it has nothing to do with the quality of the MOOC but just how busy I am. I must say the LCL one is fascinating. I’m too busy so am not contributing to my group but love dropping in when I can to get fresh ideas.

Not sure what this MP3 audio recording app will cost eventually, but this is almost ideal for the Chromebook, but also works great from my Windows 7 PC. It’s based on Flash. ( http://denniehoopingarner.com/portfolio/ ) I think what the programmer is saying is that all the processing is done on the client-side (records, converts to MP3) and then you can save it (without having to upload it to a server first). *Might be able to get a license and make the service only available from behind a portal, or your LMS (Moodle/Blackboard), or a login on a web page. Maybe even a widget for WordPress.

Thanks for the tip to look into Google Docs. I just assigned a project to my junior AP class that could use some of the new tools being offered. I also liked some of the ideas presented about having instant feedback with your students. Our school network is often down and I sometimes never get emails from students who have questions. A quick post to Twitter that I can check from my phone would serve as a much more efficient way to communicate with my tech savvy teenagers when they are not in my classroom.
