The Morning at BLC

Hi everyone -

Well of course after a fascinating yesterday today has been a lot of powerpoint presentations (or Keynote if they are Mac users). So lots of pages and pages and links and..

Someone, somewhere has to do a presentation on how to actually make some of these things work. No one is yet discussing pedagogy - they are all showing us cool stuff. i just saw a presentation that mentioned a new on-line bookmarking site that allows you to highlight and leave sticky notes on electronic texts. Now THAT could have some application with annotation.

This session that I am waiting to see is supposed to be about "putting it all together" so I hope that they are ready with some - "now, how do you use it" options.

Lunch was a salad, roast chicken breast, really sturdy (shiny) mashed potatoes and Raspberry Tiramisu. The coffee here is good, contrary to my expectations.

Tonight we are going to travel into the city down to Quincy Market via the conference bus. We are going to have dinner in the North End. Cathy was so skeptical last night about getting around, and she's not much of a walker, so tonight will be a challenge.

The session is starting, so I'll sign off and post later.
