Happy New Year

by fifer1863 on December 30, 2010

Taking a moment to wish all of my readers a Happy New Year.

I also wanted to give you a heads up on some upcoming posts:

  • Part 3 of Teaching the Gettysburg Address
  • A review of some iPod Touch/iPad apps
  • More on getting kids to act like historians
  • A book review
  • Some screencast how-to posts
  • A podcast (yes, I know, finally).

I have been doing quite a bit of behind the scenes work on some things and hope to post more frequently and with more variety in the New Year.

Until 2011,

Jim

Links to Interviews

by Jim on October 1, 2009

Just a quick note to remind you that back in 2008, I was interviewed by Dave Solon (http://k12geek.com/blog/) about my blog.

This interview was for his Twenty Minutes for Tech podcast.

Thought you might enjoy listening sometime when you have a few minutes: http://www.twentyfortech.com/?p=9

Also, in January of this year I did an interview with Kevin Honeycutt for his Driving Questions podcast.   It’s a bit long but the conversation is great and goes in several different directions.  Check it out on the Driving Questions website<

Until next time….
