		<title>Teaching Technology with Technology</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s go time! This week I was hired as a Technology Teacher for an Elementary School in the School District of Philadelphia. My start date is in January and I am excited to finally execute some of the concepts, innovations, and discoveries made through CI 597C and other explorations.
Though I have spent the past several [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tweet Talk: The Reunion</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It has been almost a year since our last Team Tweet podcast, which was recorded for our final CI 597C class. We were able to reunite in State College last week and record a podcast where we share updates, thoughts, and ideas.  Below is the rundown for the episode as well as links to content [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dear Mom: Web 2.0 at Overnight Summer Camp</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been ignoring this blog, largely because I have been focusing my web 2.0 efforts on Golden Slipper Camp, where I serve as Program Director on a 24/7 basis during the summer.  I have been blogging, podcasting, and twittering for GSC and even bringing campers into the mix.  Check out the fun at the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Density and Microvideo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A new friend that I met through to the use of teaching with technology just shared a video he made to teach students about the concept of density.  His video shares a brilliant mnemonic device, and the use of color really makes it more than just a cute saying.
His video also a great use of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Community &#8211; Synthesis Always Satisfies (or is it Snickers?)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Community, community, community.  Even after four months of endlessly discussing this concept in not one but TWO classes (see also: IST 402H Community Informatics), and reading countless blog entries via Pligg, and even more blog entries from Twitter friends about the role of Twitter in community building, I am not sure how or where [...]]]></description>

		<title>Names &amp; Identity &#8211; Response to Becci&#8217;s Post</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wanted to respond to Becci&#8217;s synthesis post, A Comment on Identity.  In it, Becci describes the pride she has for her name despite having no control over it, and how she felt when she changed her last name due to marriage: both saddened and liberated.  Reading this reminded me of a thought that is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Final Thought on Identity, thanks to Omarosa, Da Vinci, and TGIFridays</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wow! Four months ago, identity was just a word to me.  When I used it, it was usually followed by “theft” or “crisis,” depending on context.  Today, after nearly completing CI597C, the word is much more than an adjective prefix (I just made that term up!).  It is a conversation starter; a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Two Become One: Whose Identity Is It Anyway?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Radio Lab recently had a show called (So-Called) Life in which a woman in need of a transplant test her children&#8217;s DNA.  They find that the children match the father&#8217;s DNA, but not hers!  Additional testing reveals that the DNA in her blood is completely different from the DNA in her saliva &#8212; [...]]]></description>

		<title>PS I apologize to the Have-nots</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I acknowledge that my previous blog entry about Have-nots was written with the intent of being controversial in an effort to induce discussion.   If you read it, you will notice that there is shock value in paragraphs 1 &#38; 2 and I apologize for making anyone feel insulted.  In reflection, shock value [...]]]></description>
