Ed Tech Coast to Coast #2 is here
September 2nd, 2005 | by Tim Wilson |The gang, minus Steve Burt, got together via Skype to record another episode of Ed Tech Coast to Coast. Tim Lauer, Will Richardson, and I started with the broad topic of “barriers to technology implementation” and started vamping from there. All of us spent way more than our $0.02 during the 40-minute chat.
It’s not exactly an earth-shattering insight, but I was reminded how similar the challenges are for those of us out there trying to inspire, convince, and train teachers to use technology in new ways. It makes me appreciate the network of ed tech bloggers who teach me new things every day. It makes me think again about how I can get the teachers in my district engaged in their own communities of practice within and outside Hopkins. It’s an enormous challenge to be sure.

I wanted to encourage you to continue to do these chats coast to coast. As a technology using educator, I often feel isolated. Hearing the conversations of those at the forefront of edtech is extremely valuable. Reading all of your blogs is great but there is nothing like hearing banter between you all. Keep up the good work. I look forward to hear the next one.
