Great Encouragement

Liz Davis and Lisa Thumann have nominated this blog in this year’s Edublog Awards in the Best Teacher Blog category.

bestteacherI am absolutely thrilled to have even been considered and just the nomination alone gives me great encouragement to continue writing about my experiences with technology in my class.

I have been writing for a while now and, as I was explaining today to my teaching colleague Rick, the process of composing posts continues to help me reflect on my everyday teaching and to draw together idea threads that can all to often become frayed. The ensuing comments and conversations have always meant I continue to learn.

Looking through the list of other nominees and their respective blogs, it feels good to be in the mix with such company. It is particularly exciting to see my blog sharing the list with Ollie Bray and José Picardo whose blogs I enjoy and am inspired by.

The voting is now open and runs until the 21st December 2008 – so please pop along and support your favourite, if you would like to vote for this blog then you know I would be very grateful.
