The IB News – daily
Ah, my friend Julie finally gets the book in China! I’m so excited for her (and for us) and now I’m pouring over the public Kindle comments that my friends are leaving (or really anyone.) If you read on Kindle, sign in online and then make your notes public and I’ll be watching! ;-)

Global Education – When Hard Work Pays Off « coal cracker classroom
Suzie Nestico did an amazing job this past semester as our project manager for Flat Classroom 11-3. Here, she reflects on what her students learned and the individual awards of her students. I love hearing the reflections of students. It is so similar to what we’ve heard before and yet it is new every time another student says he/she now understands what it is like to collaborate and connect with others throughout the world.

Are you an iCitizen: A Project on Citizenship in the 21st Century – Be the Change
Beth Sanders from Birmingham Alabama shares her students’ iCitizen PSA announcements. This is a project that they have been working on to share their thoughts about what it means to be a citizen in the 21st century. I do hope she’ll continue to take her students out into the web to connect even more but this is a great start.

Vicki Davis has been an educator and IT director in Georgia since 2002. Today, she also works as an instructional technology coach, staying side-by-side with active teachers and students so her work stays grounded in real classrooms.

She's a mom of three, wife of one, and loves talking about the wise, transformational use of technology for teaching and doing good in the world.

She has blogged at the Cool Cat Teacher Blog since 2005 and hosts the 10 Minute Teacher Podcast and Cool Cat Teacher Talk (radio, public access TV, YouTube, and all major podcast platforms), interviewing remarkable educators around the world. Vicki focuses on what unites us — a quest for truly remarkable, life-changing teaching and learning. The goal of her work is to provide actionable, encouraging, relevant ideas for teachers, grounded in truth and shared with love.

If you talk to Vicki for long, she'll encourage you to "Relate to Educate," to "innovate like a turtle," or to be "a remarkable teacher." She loves homemade sourdough bread and cinnamon rolls and runs half marathons with her sisters. You can usually find her laughing with her students or digging into a book.

Thank you for reading, sharing, and telling your friends about the work we do here! - Vicki
