Brent Spore on Geek Riot

February 25th, 2007

So, I’m hanging out with my dog right now (he’s sleeping on the bed, I’m typing away), and Brent’s in the other room talking on his cell as a guest on Geek Riot. So far, I’ve heard him talk about his early-on experiences with computers (a la Amiga), and his “conversion” to Mac (as a result of the death of a PC). Sounds like they’re having fun! If you get a second stop by the Geek Riot Blog here & listen in.

AHS, etc.

Yesterday I presented my learning plan at the Arizona Historical Society Museum down in Tempe. I had the opportunity to present it last fall at the AZ Social Studies conference & I was asked again to present. I student taught last fall, so my old ‘mentor’ teacher was there to present along side me because I was able to do the entire plan with my old class (her current class). We made it a highly-interactive, rollar-coaster ride of a class! (Which was good because we presented after lunch.) The focus was on the homefront experience during WWII, specifically, on the Japanese internment camps that occured here in the U.S. (There were also a few internment camps up in Canada.) I used sources from the Japanese American Citizens League and the museum. So, check out my LP & my education website!
