Growing the New Technopolis

Since the blog you’re reading is based on WordPress, which I love, I feel a little guilty posting this. But it’s a great resource for educators and students looking for an easy solution to podcasting. Many people in K-16 education already use Blogger, and this article explains how to integrate podcasts seemlessly and easily. Worth bookmarking:

This is an example of the kind of initiative being driven by our vision of the New Technopolis. Kudos to my friend and colleague, Bob Bradley, for getting this going.

We learned just last week that our proposal entitled, “Real Scholarship, Real Community: Effective Technology Integration for Improved Outcomes & Student Engagement,” has been accepted for next year’s 9th Annual Service-Learning Conference, sponsored by North Carolina Campus Compact. We’re excited to be able to share our vision with high-level service-learning advocates from around the southeast next February 21.
