  1. @thornburyscott @dfogarty Coming to this thread late - but isn't there a big difference between "the" and "an" authoritative source?
  2. Wonderful student-created ezine - inspiring! RT @motherchina: Reading and Writing class ezine on trends. http://issuu.com/wenzao/doc...
  3. Just blogged "Letting go of the 'teacher' role" re - encouraging autonomy via web 2.0 - http://muscatwikiproject.bl...
  4. "Now", he says, "I'm kind of a tart. I'll do anything to make them love me. That's the only rule."
  5. DELTA tutor once said "For much of my career I was frightened of my students". Been fascinated by that ever since-he seems a fearless person
  6. I feel like Milton Berle - "I'm getting so absent-minded and forgetful. Sometimes in the middle of a sentence, I . . . "
  7. Reading the discussion on critical pedagogy and dogme - fantastic stuff http://bit.ly/oqcU
  8. e.g. http://www.machinto.org/ - kids from all over the world telling stories about their feelings about war
  9. Looking through the projects page at iEARN http://media.iearn.org/proj.... Some fantastic stuff going on out there.
  10. RT @mediatwit If you train people to shoot videos in their towns in India, its amazing how much change they can bring: http://bit.ly/NKp3L
  11. Anybody else out there use emusic? Can you recommend a good use for my last 2 download credits?
  12. @kalinagoenglish @hoprea @NikPeachey Thanks very much for those - Spore download is on it's way! Looks perfect.
  13. Anybody know of an online tool that'll let me create weird and wacky animals?
  14. Preparing hand-outs for a presentation I'm giving on vocabulary teaching
  15. @pixton On the wiki? I can see it - and other visitors have told me they've seen it too... very strange.
  16. @sjhannam I don't have the right sort of mind to both ask and answer a question in the same day! Probably still be pondering it next year...
  17. @pixton Thanks! I've embedded it beneath the article on my wiki - is that what you mean?
  18. @ScottLord1 All caused far higher fatalities, but none are brought back into the public eye on same scale.
  19. @ScottLord1 Why? Can you think of any other 20yr old foreign news story still recycled yearly? Rwandan genocide? Tsunami 2004? Chernobyl?
  20. @sjhannam Maybe, but all seems 2 excessive. Why the need to keep it in Western public consciousness? + act as (guilty) conscience of China?
