The newsletter is not (for everyone) working as delivered to inboxes.

I do hope you feel that you can ALWAYS contact me with questions. I try to return e-mails and Tweets within in a day or so. I will send you the passwords in an e-mail now.

Thanks and I hope to see you on the Rutgers campus soon.
Lisa

I have so many pieces of paper from your two (well, three) workshops, and I can’t find any of the passwords to get into the eboards, and there’s the issue with the new administrator and now a new principal (the fourth in five years) that keeping up with everything in technology is overwhelming. Maybe that’s a factor? When I mentioned that your email to me was an empty body and about 20 attachments, you mentioned that I could get everything on your blog but I couldn’t find your blog. So maybe folks are like me in that they can’t keep up with all of the zooming ahead stuff. Or maybe it’s just me! Color me a Slowsky. :-) Hopefully now I’ll keep up with you. Best regards, Liz (from parking lot 54)

Sometimes, the bug bites and sometimes it doesn’t. However, if administrators buy into ideas, they usually have a greater and longer-laster influence over teachers than simply a blog/newsletter.

Good luck, from a recent bug-bitten teacher. :-)

If you are getting traffic to your blog perhaps you should try adding a polling plugin like WP-Polls:

Hope that helps!
