English/ESL honoured
I am really pleased about this. Go to Creating a Community of Writers Using Technology and you will find details of a March 7, 2008 Conference in Grand Rapids, MI.
Activity 3 (30 min.): Show examples of blogs and evaluate how well they would add to the community of writers in the classroom; teachers can follow links while facilitators show the link on the screen.

Thanks, people. Have a good conference!
Young film-maker
Over on English/ESL far and away the most popular item on my Vodpod there — or an any of my Vodpods — is an HSC film by Rory Pearson, a Mine ex-student. You’ll find more of his work on that link.
That’s his latest.
