Just wondering if you would allow access to your classroom. I am considering buying the individual moodle room— http://www.crteacher.com and I would like to see how it could work in an elementary classroom. Sounds like a wonderful year!
Thanks,
Debbie
Unfortunately my district moodle site isn’t set up to allow for external guests, and this decision is beyond my control. If you have questions always fell free to tweet (@jdeyenberg) or leave a comment.
Love hearing about your adventure- I teach art in Dominica
Glad to see you on line … guess we need to have you as a featured teacher next year at the teacher2teacher eh
Hi!
I saw your posts and great examples for tips for using the smart notebook software. I would like post these on my school site (http://technology-resource-teache.stafford.heim.schoolfusion.us) and give credit to you for creating them. Would that be possible?
Absolutely – I write the blog to share and help others, so I’m happy to help anyway I can.
Thanks! I will let you know when they are my site and give you the link to check out.
Nominated for best individual tweeter. Congratulations!
Hi Jenn,
Congrats on the Mircosoft innovative teacher. I am trying to find a way for students to deomnsstrate their learning in an alternative format. The tough thing with chemistry and physics though is that you need to combine the concrete and mathematical with the abstract and microscopic simultaneously. I am hoping that the creation of a cartoon (MARVIN AVATAR) will help solidify the connections. The creation of the movie will help teach as well as demonstrate learning. However, I need to focus on teaching science, not on learning a piece of software and scripting and creating avatars.
Did you create your own avatars and what was the learning curve like?
Hoping you can comment…
Thanks
Ian
PS. I am from NB. Can you tell me who in your Brazil grop was using Marvin so I can make contact more locally? Thanks

Thanks Jen! Got it now!
I love reading about your adventures in Dominica. I teach yoga; promote health and wellness and work with local schools; teachers; summer camps and homeschooling families to bring more art, computer and science into their programmes.

Jen,
I am contacting you because I saw your video, GPS and Geocaching, on the 2010 K12OnlineConference site. I really learned a lot and would like to invite you to Skype into one of our sessions at the 2011 ITEC conference here in Iowa on Oct. 17 & 18. http://itec-ia.org/en/conference.
I would like to provide you with more information about this. Please send me an email at zeitz@uni.edu
Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.
