Today is the first day of school. There is such a freshness to the first day of school. Students have a fresh start. Teachers have the new tools that they learned in inservice to become better teachers.
Web 2.0 tools are worming their way into my school. I used a wiki to make the Standards Assessment Report to the Southern Association Visiting Team. Teachers see the value of using the technology. Some of them have created wikis to use in their classroom. I can see the ice thawing towards Web 2.0.

School Starts
I am so excited. Tomorrow is the first day of professional development. I am working with my teachers to introduce them to web 2.0 tools, Inspiration 8.0 and Office 2007. I have three hours. I know it is like a week's assignments put into one day. But I am still excited. Teaching my peers is harder than teaching my students. I have been working on this for weeks. I have one more week before the students show up. Professional development is really fun when I do not have to plan it. But then again, the teachers need to know about the latest and greatest technology. Let's hope that they are ready to use Web 2.0.
