Barbara Ganley’s blog is down due to structural issues, and she’s reflecting on the impact:
And so, my missing the blog isn’t about an addict finding withdrawal a torture. It’s about being denied a powerful tool in my teaching set, and if I don’t get it back by the end of the week, I don’t know what I’m gonna do…
I know I would have felt the same way had it happened to me. I don’t think I would want to ever go back to xeroxing papers and handouts and evaluating my students just on their ability to discuss each other’s work in a synchronous way. Not to mention carrying stacks of paper around. And the good news is I think there are actually a couple of other teachers around here who feel the same way.
So anyone know how to get five columns with feeds from five different blogs on the same page???
