This is the post for week one. I found the syllabus finally and so got to this. I have read the vocabulary information and appreciate the good  information. I am working on the ebook. but the most important part of this week was  getting used to twitter again and using a blog again--both of which I had done long ago but had not used well. We use mostly goole sites, moodle and edmodo at school. I really thought the twitter meeting was a great way to use it and will take this to the teachers I work with as well as try  to find   ways to incorporate it into my student's work. I had used twitter to follow others to get information  which was good but did not see all of it's power I am working on gathering information for a presentation to show the teachers at my school some of the other functions that twitter can fullfill. Some of the sites I have started to put together are:

how powerful twitter is

Photos — Be sure that someone on your Twitter Team can tweet some photos of the event. This is a great way to give those not at the conference a sense of what the conference feels like. Poster sessions make great photo opportunities, as do presentation slides, sometimes. Make sure to photograph some people, too. http://chronicle.com/blogs/profhacker/encouraging-a-conference-backchannel-on-twitter/30612
