It seems it is not the bloggers that have issues with dealing with transparency but those whose practices aren't quite transparent. 2007-06-12T04:59:56.300+02:00 2007-06-12T04:59:56.300+02:00 http://www.cocomment.com/sidebar?object=people&context=explore&mode=detail&id=qdsouza&conv=783294&comment_id=15235961 Quentin D'Souza Only you will know that when you preview the content. I have been using http://vtccanada.com/ for three years now and love it. It is not as k12 educational focused but covers all my geek needs. 2007-06-08T03:41:55.833+02:00 2007-06-08T03:41:55.833+02:00 http://www.cocomment.com/sidebar?object=people&context=explore&mode=detail&id=qdsouza&conv=777158&comment_id=15231166 Quentin D'Souza Doug - anyone who has been reading your blog for any length of time knows the high quality professional discussion that you bring to the table. I'm referring to Chris's interpretation of transparency, which btw gets magnified 10 fold by using microblogging tools like twitter and jaiku. 2007-06-08T02:10:22.203+02:00 2007-06-08T02:10:22.203+02:00 http://www.cocomment.com/sidebar?object=people&context=explore&mode=detail&id=qdsouza&conv=777158&comment_id=15110129 Quentin DSouza Chris, Transparency is okay, as long as you don't check professionalism at the door, when you go online. IMHO it is all about being a professional, in whatever you do. Here in Ontario Canada, it reminds me of a recent article about teacher conduct outside the classroom. http://www.oct.ca/publications/professionally_speaking/june_2007/professional_boundries.asp "The Supreme Court upheld the notion that teachers are, in a sense, always on duty through three court cases known as the trilogy. The court determined that “teachers do not necessarily check their teaching hats at the school yard gate and may be perceived to be wearing their teaching hats even off duty.” 2007-06-06T04:24:25.856+02:00 2007-06-06T04:24:25.856+02:00 http://www.cocomment.com/sidebar?object=people&context=explore&mode=detail&id=qdsouza&conv=241218&comment_id=2986647 Quentin D'Souza Vicki, That was a great presentation and I really enjoyed that it was related to your classroom experiences. On my wiki I included the following link to Bernie Dodge's wiki models http://edwiki.org/mw/index.php/Design_Patterns_for_EduWikis that might be useful. Looking forward to the wiki activity. 2006-10-24T04:48:30.898+02:00 2006-10-24T04:48:30.898+02:00 http://www.cocomment.com/sidebar?object=people&context=explore&mode=detail&id=qdsouza&conv=39339&comment_id=61099 Quentin I really enjoyed your presentation at the ECOO conference this year. It was also really nice to meet you after reading your blog for a while. 2006-05-09T02:38:09.365+02:00 2006-05-09T02:38:09.365+02:00
