Back from trip & back to learning
Posted on August 18, 2010 | 1 CommentYep, was gone for a bit there. Took off to New Hampshire where I climbed a mountain and then nursed my aching muscles. What did I learn? Don’t hike longer than you can manage and in the event that you foolishly hike to long, bring... -
The Sound of Freedom
Posted on August 3, 2010 | 2 CommentsOK, I’ll confess, I’m a bit of a Montreal snob when it comes to our artistic culture in this town. It’s just that ol’… je ne sais quoi. Case in point: this past weekend I invited my neighbor, who’s new to Montreal, to meet my... -
Benefits of Segregation?
Posted on July 29, 2010 | 1 CommentI’ve been so anxious to start filming at my old high school–as I have been planning to for a while now–that I decided a couple of days ago that I could at least grab some B-roll on the campus grounds until the formal shooting can... -
Freedom Writers
Posted on July 25, 2010 | No CommentsWell now, I haven’t sobbed like that in a while! I’m one of the programmers for the wonderful Regent Park Film Festival (in Toronto) and I just finished viewing a documentary film based on the Freedom Writers Diary which is about how a high school... -
Patterns and Passion
Posted on July 23, 2010 | 3 CommentsI have a couple of audio clips to share with you today. I spoke a while back of my anticipated meeting with Freddy, a 19 year old musician all around talented guy. Well, we spent a good 2 hours together chatting about all things education... -

Posted on July 21, 2010 | 4 CommentsWhat?! Are you kidding me? If there’s no such thing as learning styles I may as well drop my whole thesis project and go get a real job! This theory is discussed in Daniel Willingham book Why don’t Students Like School? I discovered his book... -
Photos, text and publish
Posted on July 16, 2010 | No CommentsI’m going through a bunch of links that have accumulated from my Google alerts. I’m on the hunt for those innovative ideas for the classroom. Most often you’ll find the links I like in my de.licio.us account (on the right). I thought I’d post a... -
Back on!
Posted on July 16, 2010 | 1 CommentHello! Not good blogging practice I know–to be absent for a while there. I blame it on technicalities…frustrating technicalities! This site, I am pleased to announce, is now called -WIRED TO LEARN… if you haven’t already noticed! Changing it over from an old name (of... -
Work’N the Audio
Posted on June 13, 2010 | No CommentsI spent the weekend messing around with Mac’s GarageBand (‘08) and the free software Audacity (…steamy, as you can imagine), to see which one would be best to work with for editing audio and creating a podcast. No to G.B…. and I’m not feel’n Audacity... -
Proof of concept
Posted on June 7, 2010 | 1 CommentDeveloping this web space for the project that I’m working on has been hugely satisfying. It is also strengthening the idea of making this place a consistent and ever expanding tool for not only me but eventually a larger community. Last week proved to be...
