Skip, this is so amazingly relevant.
I just have to talk to ning again about featuring the activity of groups in the main forum page, and also into "recent activity." This sort of work you are doing should feed back into the whole so we can all keep up with these important initiatives. Thank you so much. I am thrilled about exploring what you're posting here.

Connie,

Before I move on to a next posting about Stanford's School of Education, let me point out another great resource provided by Columbia's Teachers College called The Open Mind: Online Digital Archive.

Here's what Open Mind states about its offerings:

"First Broadcast in May, 1956, The Open Mind is still produced weekly by Richard D. Heffner, host, historian, and University Professor of Communications and Public Policy at Rutgers University. These conversations with some of the most creative thinkers of the last half-century are a primary resource available to students, teachers, researchers, archivists, librarians, historians, journalists and all who are interested in history, biography, media, communications, news, and public affairs"

Ok, Skip, I'm hooked. Should I spend the whole weekend online and learning?!

Very intriguing resources. I love that "rich" feeling: rich in resources! Thank you so much. It'll be such fun to scout through this new stuff you've put up.

Skip,

I just made a post about educational TV that I put up on EFL Classroom 2.0. And then I stumbled onto this! Serendipity. I'll be investigating and will report back. Seems clean and to the point, really fluid and functional. I'll post up this link on my own site and a really good venture.
