Comment on About SITE by Meg Blanchard

Hello All.

Happy New Year! I hope you all are well.

My colleague Mehmet Aydeniz is launching a new journal, the Journal of Research in STEM Education (J-STEM), that might be of interest to many members of SITE.

On behalf of the journal, Mehmet invites you to submit a manuscript for consideration for the inaugural issue. Because STEM is an emerging idea we are seeking contributions that will focus on conceptualization of STEM and possibilities and challenges associated with adoption of STEM in K-12 schools.

Deadline for manuscript submission is on March 15, 2015.

Manuscript Decisions will be made by May 15, 2015

Thanks for considering it submitting an article to this journal. Please go to http://www.j-stem.net for more information.

Warmest Wishes,
Meg Blanchard

Hello,
I am curious as to when we will be notified regarding to whether or not our submission for SITE 2015 was accepted. Also, will I receive an email, or will I need to go to SITE to find out. Thanks!

We are a team of professionals at a college in Mexico working in designing a teacher training program that will integrate technology in its instructional offer.
Our proposal is based on three pillars: an andragogic concept of learning, a constructivist approach and a model based on connectivity.
We are looking for colleagues to look into it to validate this proposal. We are also seeking guidance to find similar existing programs in the world.

Thank you for your post. I plan to also study schools and their best practices in the Baltic Sea area in June, 2014. Your work was enlightening.

Great to be attending this year’s SITE 2014 conference in Florida and to see Google Glasses in the first workshop – already learned something new from the Blog!

For 2014 only I am also leading an international SITE symposium in Christchurch, New Zealand , which is a first for the Asia Pacific region. See http://www.education.canterbury.ac.nz/site-symposium/ and our proceedings as they emerge in the EdITlib!

Is this plan available anywhere to view partially or full? Or more obviously a summary of the key elements?

Comment on Preparing Teachers to Teach Digital Citizenship by Mohammad Zaman

I have enjoyed the company of Michael Searson first time I met him, and I met him only a few weeks ago. While I do owe him to communicate, I figured I will use his blog to communicate, being in the digital communication era!! (I still have to learn a lot of abbreviated IMs and Text Messages, i.e., LOL etc.) First of all congratulations!! It is a true achievement and I am sure the team and the leadership both deserve every bit of it.

I will without any hesitation add myself to your activities, and I believe there are a ton of things we need to do. You already started a fabulous journey, I will just tag along!!

Bonnie, Thanks so much for this post, and being an advocate for the work that we’re doing on the Facebook Digital Citizenship. However, some of the resources you cite (including the picture) come from an article written by public relations arm of the university where I teach. Of course, they would want to feature their faculty when writing up such stories.

But I want to make it clear that the Facebook Digital Citizenship granted to SITE is truly a team effort. Here are those talented individuals who are making it happen:

Bonnie Sutton, Digital Equity; David Whittier, Boston University; Robert Plants, University of Mississippi; Raymond Rose, Huston–Tillotson University; David Gibson, Curveshift; Joke Voogt, University of Twente; Marilyn Ochoa, University of Florida; Vic Sutton, Emaginos
