Last Blog!

Like a Jeff Karstens fastball, this puppy is out of here!  I can't say I've enjoyed blogging, cause well, I haven't.  As Austin Powers says, "That ain't my bag baby."  However, I can see me trying some new techno stuff in my classes this year.  Why not?  After three years in the same setting, I'm getting bored.  Definitely going to keep up the www.edmodo.com site, it's a proven winner.  Doc, you should take a look at it see if you could add it to your next class.  I was thinking about taking some of my older power points and flipping them into a prezi or something else.  We shall see! 

So, this is it for me.  I'm writing my last blog!  I've also completed all of my assignments for both classes this summer session.  Making it official, I'M DONE WITH GRAD SCHOOL.  Thank the heavens.  Never realized how much I hate being in school.  How I made it is beyond me.  Well, I know how I made it, my wife would yell at me and tell me to stop complaining until I finally shut up and did my work.  Thank you my dear, you're an inspiration.  Alright, I'm gone...

List Serve

I'm a member of an AP list serve that is the coolest thing ever!  Everyday, even in the summer, I get anywhere from 20 - 30 emails a day on various topics in and around AP World History.  Now, I rarely do I read them all (those of you who know me, are not surprised by that) however, I usually pick one or two per day.  The other cool thing is, being able to post questions on the list serve and have other AP teachers answer them!  When I first started teaching APWH, I was lost.  This list serve saved my life, a teacher in California gave me the a bunch of resources that I used all year!  Take that Google!
