Wednesday, June 25, 2008. How do YOU spell relief? Let me start by telling you a little story that happened to me recently. Well, about two weeks ago, two of my colleagues walked down the hall and into the workshop I was presenting in to inform me they were unable to access the Manila server. Although rare, it did happen that the server web service would die and we would need to restart it. So I informed our workshop participants we need to take a little break while I assessed the situation. Since this p...

edTechTrainer: Creative Inspiration
http://edtechtrainer.esu10.org/2008/11/creative-inspiration.html
Sunday, November 2, 2008. All the networking (machine type) and programming was right up my alley. I had never turned on a computer before college and I took to this like a duck to water. It was my thing! Well a few years rolled by. I was "upgraded" to a full time staffer at UNK. During this time, Graci left UNK to work at ESU 10. Well, I finally succumbed to the pressure and left UNK. Although, I didn't go directly to work at ESU 10. My first stop was Centura Public Schools. At the NETA conference.

Monday, May 19, 2008. If these walls could talk. So, back to the graduation. One of the students who spoke talked about all the stories these halls could tell. The superintendent spoke of a song lyric containing the words "I'll remember you, will you remember me? Emotional attachment to the building? Or to the stories, friendships, hardships, teachers, and such, that made up their education. If these walls could talk.". Memories of Beaverton Public Schools. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
