Two months ago I caught a comment from Seb to check out the Educational Blogger’s Network. I haven’t had time to follow up on this, due to travel, writing, and other things. I started digging around the web regarding weblogs in education (I was a regular reader of SIT for a long time) and was amazed to see how the edublogging community has changed so much in the last year. CS-ED.org should play in this space, I think; exactly how it should play, I don’t know. For now, I will continue reading and watching for a week or two (I just set NetNewsWire up again) and think about how I can participate. Then I’ll think about tools that make it easier for members of the CS-ED.org community (nascent as it is) to participate. Time, as always, is the critical issue: priority one is getting done.
As part of my searching, I stumbled on the article A Radical Formula for Teaching Science. This article gave me an idea that I want to hang on to, but I can’t trust the Washington Post to actually maintain a proper web archive of their content. Because I assume the content will go away, I included it here in this post, so I could find it later. Google (currently) will not see the content, but Inktomi will… can you find it? Kinda a nifty trick, I think—simple, but it works.
