I think this was a very interesting resource you created! I like the fact that technology was only a risk and not a danger. I think with more research and others on your side it will be much easier to propose the use of some of these 2.0 applications. I also think that some of the difficulties with professional development aspects come from teachers who are not motivated to be the best teachers they can be! I think we need to give more incentives to our teachers! well of course I do.... :)
Your zones of comfort were interesting - when I become frustrated with teachers who are not willing to try to become better or with those who complain all of the way, I have to remember that I can't spin my wheels trying to convince the few nay-sayers - I need to use my energy with those willing to become better.
I have been a regular, special, and substitute teacher for the past 21 years in Central Florida. I have taught in both public and private schools. Curriculum is my passion and I can't imagine ever growing tired of trying new ideas in education. I hope this site provides an avenue for learning through collaboration.
