Bringing the Community into the Classroom by Ben Grey and Wesley Fryer
- This podcast is a recording of Ben Grey and Wesley Fryer's TechForum Chicago 2011 presentation on May 6, "Bringing the Community into the Classroom." The official session description was: Sharing is a moral imperative for educators. In this session, we'll explore ways in which forward-thinking schools are using digital platforms and Web 2.0 tools to share information and ideas with parents and community members. From classroom learning hubs that allow parents to tune into "digitally powered show and tell" to integrated communications plans that use social media, eNewsletters, and Google Docs to get the community more involved, we will look at ways of providing rich windows into our schools as learning environments. Ben Grey's presentation slides are available on SlideShare. Wesley's referenced links are available on the wiki page, "Share Your Ideas: Platforms for Publishing."

Tech or Treat: Playing with Media
- This podcast is a recording of Wesley Fryer's presentation, "Tech or Treat: Playing with Media," shared on October 22, 2011, for the Discovery Educators' Network Fall Virtual Conference as a spotlight session. The session description was: We need to play with media to become more effective communicators. As children, we learn to progressively make sense of our confusing world through play. The same dynamics apply to us as adults communicating with new and different media forms. As you learn to play with digital text, images, audio and video, you will communicate more creatively and flexibly with a wider variety of options. Author and educator Wesley Fryer will inspire and empower you, as a creative person, to expand your personal senses of digital literacy and digital agency as a multimedia communicator! Slides and referenced links/resources from this session are available on Wesley's handouts wiki.
