I am in St. Louis, Missouri this week for the 2008 Midwest Education Technology Conference. Yesterday, I shared ideas about Podcasting with Purpose and GarageBand Mechanics. Two of my favorite presentations and it was great to see all the enthusiasm in Missouri for getting constructive and creative with these technologies. Today I also had the opportunity to share even more ideas in a general session titled “Technologies That Are Changing Education” in which I explored applications that I feel are having a tranformational impact on classrooms. It’s one of those “mind dump” kind of presentations where we get to go on a little journey together to imagine what school could look like if we begin to redirect our attention toward cycles of inquiry and creativity. I’ll be adding the links we covered in a future post. Check back soon for more.

I attended your Technology that is Changing the World. Very inspiring. I was wondering if you could give me some advice about setting up a website for my classroom. I am really interested in posting photos, photostory 3 slide shows, and movie I make with the class. Do you have any advice about a good website builder that is free? Thanks!!
