Vicky, that's great to know about the calendar. I didn't know it would convert. I'll subscribe and be all set then!
Vicki Davis Comment by Vicki Davis on October 17, 2008 at 8:57am
Chris - the google calendar, if you set one up, should convert to your time zone. Phil - students can share things with just their friends when the post it, but right now it is either public or private. A big part of what we're doing is teaching kids how to be safe on the Internet in public spaces - anyone can see it but only we can edit and respond to it.

So, yes, students should behave differently. I have a private ning for my students to learn how to do this and "let it all hang out" -- (not literally, though.)

Hi Phil - I don't know what what Julie and Vickie will decide about this, but since I've already got my kids on the Ning in it's semi-public state, I had my students use only their first names (although they couple make up names altogether as long as they are consistent) and they are using object photos rather than photos of themselves. At first I let them take pic off the net, then we read the code of conduct and went out to take our own pics...was a good lesson for all of us. Maybe that will help.

Thanks Anne, I'll wait for more details.

Hi Chris I think there is a meeting for us on Friday.Probably early morning for you. It will be late evening for me. But I haven't heard any more than that so I guess we'll have to wait until we hear some more.

Hello teachers. Can anyone tell me when the next Elluminate session will be? I see it listed on the timeline for Oct. 23rd at 10 PM. I thought there was one this week. Also, I see in the timeline that this meeting is at 10 PM, which time zone?

Ok I have a question about this Ning. How much is public? I know that you need to be signed in to participate in the discussions, but I notice that all the student posts and pictures are available to anybody on the internet. Is it possible to make it more private?

My main reason for asking is that I am drafting a parent letter telling them about this project and I want to make sure I am clear with them about the level of exposure their children will have. I'm operating on the 'if I prepare them well beforehand, then they'll be supportive' principle.

Hi Julie and Vicki,
I thought I had better figure out this Ning thing before getting my students on it. I'm impressed with how much activity there has been already.

That's great Julie. Happy to be an administrator. Being the last week of term we'll probably get students to work on their pages and add to Maddi's discussion. I think you'll be hearing a lot from Maddie. She's an outstanding student with a great deal to say and contribute.
Julie Lindsay Comment by Julie Lindsay on September 12, 2008 at 1:26am
Hi Anne
I just approved your students membership to the Ning. We need to make you an administrator in here as well so you can monitor your class. Vicki can do this as the owner of the Ning.
