I think a lot can be said for describing technology as a language there are computer languages and code which help describe how things can be done but there is also describing fluency and how skills can be improved using ICT. when trying to find new ways to describe how technology learning can be infused it might be great to compare it to have a language can be learned immersion to the native environment and an application of the tools of the language in order to seed a result our society and culture is in the process of this adjustment we are all on a variety of levels in a variety of comfortability scales.

Walking kids into camp
Since working another summer program(minuteman). I noticed a big difference in the kids whose parents walk in with them in the morning. Some parents just drop off and leave and some bring kids all the way in. I think this indicates a stronger relationship and dhows a concern for the childs emotional well being.

Thoughts
What gets measured gets done.
You always need to be upgrading yourself and continually.
Its easier to sit in your own skin when you are improving.
You always need to be working on your self concept.

today is a good day had things go my way.... I think sometimes when you talk to people to have them really believe what you're saying you have to really believe it yourself I think that is what makes the biggest difference in whether or not you influence them.
time to start thinking about how a variety of curriculum can use technology and embracing them with tools and resources in organized way this could mean a variety of different wavelengths sources all specified for specific curriculums and easy to adapt to lessons.

what gets measured gets done
I have lost 10 pounds in the past month. I have started to think about what is made the biggest difference other than the change in diet I think a lot of it has to do with new shoes new clothes and a motivation to get things done.
the diet of course in a big improvement. I've been a lot more balanced e than I have in the past.
trying to keep my mind in the right place is well staying focused on the focus factors and what needs to get done. facing a lot of stress right now with possibility of changing jobs. but also experiencing a lift from completing my doctorate and more time to focus on other things.
