This podcast is a continuation of our reflection from TCEA 2008. Anna enhanced this podcast with images and links from TCEA--remember that you can also go to Hitchhikr and look up TCEA to see what others have posted. We don't have many links, but here's a couple: David Pogue - We heart David! Fantastic presentation at Past Presidents' Luncheon. Marco Torres - Our friend and fellow ADE - did a fabulous job at the closing keynote--I'm still mulling over and sharing his wisdom! Cover It Live - live blogging from any event--very, very cool. See our blog for examples of this. Who Is Sick - "flumappr" of sorts--see who's sick and where (based on user input) And we need your feedback! Call us at 206-350-7814 to let us know about your favorite part of TCEA, what you learned, a memorable moment--whatever you want to share. We'll include it on an upcoming episode links, podcast Two Tech Chicks no no http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/12/notes-from-tceas-closing-keynote/ http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/12/notes-from-tceas-closing-keynote/#comments Tue, 12 Feb 2008 15:54:01 +0000 Helen http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/12/notes-from-tceas-closing-keynote/ http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/12/notes-from-tceas-closing-keynote/feed/ 0 http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/08/garageband-in-the-classroom/ http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/08/garageband-in-the-classroom/#comments Fri, 08 Feb 2008 14:02:31 +0000 Helen http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/08/garageband-in-the-classroom/ http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/08/garageband-in-the-classroom/feed/ 2 http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/07/david-pogue-at-tcea-past-presidents-luncheon/ http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/07/david-pogue-at-tcea-past-presidents-luncheon/#comments Thu, 07 Feb 2008 17:24:53 +0000 Helen http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/07/david-pogue-at-tcea-past-presidents-luncheon/ http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/07/david-pogue-at-tcea-past-presidents-luncheon/feed/ 0 http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/07/episode-39-tcea-update/ http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/07/episode-39-tcea-update/#comments Thu, 07 Feb 2008 15:35:29 +0000 Helen http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/07/episode-39-tcea-update/ http://techchicktips.net/2008/02/07/episode-39-tcea-update/feed/ 2 19:58 Episode 39 Notes from TCEA Wii Preso went well Kidspiration 3 Twitter meet-up Notes from TEC-SIG Luncheon w/Hall Davidson and Technology Treasure Chest (no promises here, just what I could ...

We hope you will be joining us. Anna and I will also be working with Tim Wilson and LaDonna Harris as the official podcasting team for TCEA. We'll be doing interviews and recording workshops and presentations for Conference Connections. Go to iTunes and subscribe to catch up on the conference. And finally, we talk about how much we love Twitter and how a photo a day can help inspire your students to be better writers...enjoy! We'll be posting again very soon!
