Made it through the first full week and am almost finished with week two.  It has been in general a good experience getting all of my students up and running on the web - class web sites are moving relatively well, course blog for IB is filling up with followers ready for posting and comments in another couple of weeks, All of the students have successfully got google drive and form submissions successfully in and we are rolling along.  My juniors in IB should be the first bunch to get the flip cam running with presentations that start the end of this week.  My only speed bumps have been in formatting and access between domains for me as a teacher.  There is not smooth web work despite the idea of cloud computing eliminating that access.  Things created and posted to web sites via lps.k12.co.us do not always play well with lpsk12.org.  I am concerned that expediency of construction won out over efficiency of operation.  Will keep working on my side and with students to make their cloud computing more fluid.

August already and I'm trying to unpack my house after moving at the first of the month, while I unpack my brain as well for this program in Inspired learning and the coming new academic year.  The flip cam and more motivation for technology integration in the classroom is getting me geared up for the fun that begins on the 20th.  Here's to unpacking and new beginnings -- I believe it was in "The Dancing Wu Li Masters"  that I first ran across the idea that every chapter is chapter 1 -- trite perhaps but....trying to stay in the now and be the student.
