I just had to post before slinking off to bed. I've just spent the last hour and twenty minutes in the end of Week 1 Fireside Chat of the K12 Online Conference in Elluminate. 64 participants at one stage and the conversation was RICH. Clarence Fisher is so easy to listen to and his message is so simple. "It's the way we do business here." The photos of his classroom are simple, straight forward and so logical. It is no wonder that blogging is sustained so easily in his class. It's no wonder that the contexts his students are learning in are real, rich, relevant and authentic. We broke up into groups later in the chat and it was great to talk with other educators about how we got started using Web2.0 in the classroom and what projects we'd recommend getting involved in for teachers that were just starting out. I wish that the chat from the little rooms was archived!

Clarence used a graphic to demonstrate his network attached to his blog. Many of us were wondering how he did that, but I think he missed that question in the fast-scrolling chat. After the Fireside Chat was finished I googled visual tool for showing networks and got this blog when sent me to this link: Websites as Graphs

Here's the pretty little graph of my blog network.

So now I'm off to bed. Don't tell anyone I stayed up til 3.29am again!
