Thank you for your kind words Daryl. YOUR enthusiasm was a great way for me to end the NJEA convention. I truly appreciate it.

By the way, on the way home, I listed to the TWIT podcast – This Week in Technology. They were talking about the Android phones. Now I REALLY want one.

Lisa,
I spent about 3 hrs on Thursday and 2 hours Today sitting in Classroom 2. GREAT Presentations!!! I will look for your workshops in the future. Great information. I’m the guy who asked what would be on your playlist for the ride home.

Thank you for your time and effort. I can’t wait to start using some of the great resources you shared. I’m not blogging yet but will let you know when I start.

Your passion for kids and teachers did not go unnoticed.

Thanks for stopping by Dorothy. I’m glad that you were able to take away something that you can bring back to school with you!

Hi Lisa,

I stopped by your booth yesterday at the Convention for a few of your presentations. Great job. I took away a lot of good ideas that I will try out–some that I’ve seen before and others that were new. I’ve seen Wordle, but look forward to reading the articles about how to use it in the classroom.

Thanks John! That’s what I get for not reading what I write three times. Spell check certainly wouldn’t catch that one.

I’ve fixed it now and I appreciate you bringing it to my attention.

It’s “piqued your interest”, not “peaked”

Thanks for sharing the links Kevin. I was hesitant as I know some of the presenters are still working on their pages (I will be finishing mine today). But I am ready and looking forward to the Convention!

See you and Holly on Wednesday night!!

This is going to be SO much fun!!! Can’t wait to see you and everyone else in High Tech Hall!!! It’s awesome that NJEA is bringing you in this year!!!

Here is the wiki with (what will hopefully at some point be) links to resources for each Showcase (small group, sit-down, hands-on, try it out) and Classroom (sit-and-get) session:
