EdTechatouille
A short cross-promotion. Until this past week, I have resisted the urge to start another blog. Succinctly? I’m weak, so I started another blog this past week.
As I define it, EdTechatouille is a popular educational technology dish combining together new tools, spicy perspectives, potent trends and issues all sautéed in pedagogy and simmered in the collective intelligence until served on its own or as an appetizer to a larger discussion.
As the About Post for that blog describes,
The intent of [EdTechatouille] is to offer general thoughts on a broad range of topics within the educational technology field. We also hope to bring on board additional “chefs” interested in making contributions consistent with the style and theme of the blog.The need to share, in more depth, new technology tools and educational technology issues and trends combined with seeing Pixar’s Ratatouille with family and reading Sarah Robbins suggestion of the movie’s story as an allegory for Web2.0 all provided the inspiration for [EdTechatouille].
Honestly, I had wanted to blog on that topic for a while, but once I came up with an effective name for the space, I had to create the blog (read as, “Topher likes to play with Photoshop/Fireworks”).
