I attended your Web 2.0 presentation in LA about a month ago. You gave a great overview of the new trends in online user created material like forums, blogs, and wikis. It encouraged me to forge ahead with this tech stuff. There is so much going on w/ technology. It's exciting, but hard to keep up. <BR/><BR/>Yes, the audio options are exciting. I like Randalls Listening Lab, but most of it's too high for my Beg.-High students. The first entry he has is about a telephone call and works well at all levels. I'm glad to see sound getting easier to develop and use. Can't get enough listening exercises.<BR/><BR/>I attended CATESOL 2007 but only got to see a few presentations because my partner and I had to set things up to present Photo Story 3. The event was great. I appreciate that they had water in each room, but the $35 for a box lunch...humm. We split one lunch, so it worked out okay. Seeing the roses in full bloom made up for it.<BR/><BR/>You mentioned PowerPoint presentations. We followed David Nippoldt from Reedley College, so I was able to poke my head in from time to time and see what he was offering. I was very impressed with the games he created.tinkerbellchimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17860168146230160490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27353745.post-16838661876043500372007-04-21T21:28:00.000-07:002007-04-21T21:28:00.000-07:00Marian,I've appreciated your blog posts and contri...Marian,<BR/><BR/>I've appreciated your blog posts and contributions on various listservs.<BR/><BR/>I'd like to "tag" you with an online meme that seems to be going around among ELL bloggers (I was tagged by Christina Niven from EL Civics, and you can see my response at:<BR/><BR/>http://larryferlazzo.edublogs.org/2007/04/21/civics-for-english-language-learners-magazines-i-read/<BR/><BR/>The question is: What magazines do you read, and have your reading habits changed over the past couple of years?<BR/><BR/>Larry FerlazzoLarry Ferlazzohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03313746428506238324noreply@blogger.com
