A fellow educator recently said to me: can you just SHOW me what you mean? WHAT should I do with the kids?
I thought about that and decied, why not create a lesson ? In trying to pick just ONE lesson to share, I had a tough time! Pod/vodcasts? Wikis? Blogs? Digital stories? Online sharing? Finally, I decided, why not share a lesson FOR EDUCATORS that outlines how to create an online learning experience?

However, as they worked through the process, they were intrigued and motivated to press on!
