Last year I spoke to students and parents at the school about the positive directions that they can take with their usage of the net. I would feel happier to see students, and parents as well, become involved in constructive uses of the net and not spend precious moments of their lives in non-productive chat and the accumulation of 'friends'. I have witnessed how teachers and students in Singapore collaborated on practical environment and heritage projects via web based mediums such as blogs. Here in Australia some of my students have built their own web sites marketing games they created. One of my Year Nine students created his own History of Malta site. http://skolamaltijawollongong.110mb.com/maltesehistory/index.html I am happy to see these developments. Productive, constructive and an achievement. Not blogs but positive nevertheless. Some of my students had short term history blogs in 2007 but I wish to see that evolve to a different level in 2008. Let's see what happens. I shall share Jung Hee's blog with my students when the new school year begins. Cheers, John <em>John Larkin's last blog post..<a href='http://blog.larkin.net.au/2008/01/14/web-20-for-the-classroom-teacher/' rel="nofollow">Web 2.0 for the Classroom Teacher</a></em> You are welcome Clay.

I am happy to see these developments. Productive, constructive and an achievement. Not blogs but positive nevertheless. Some of my students had short term history blogs in 2007 but I wish to see that evolve to a different level in 2008. Let’s see what happens. I shall share Jung Hee’s blog with my students when the new school year begins.

Cheers, John

Let me know if I can encourage or help your students in any way. Honestly, more than half the battle is getting students to find the headspace in the midst of the homework grind to find any creative vision at all. Some do, but many more don't - yet. I love JungHee for coming up with such a real, significant-for-life vision for his own time with his blog. Just too cool. Thanks for that, John.

I browsed on over to Jung Hee's blog and explored his posts. I hope to encourage some of my own students to do the same and so use the web in a productive and creative manner. Best wishes, John.
