Aloha from the 2012 Kukulu Kaiaulu conference hosted by Kamehameha Schools. Please check the attached link for information from this Technology based two day gathering. We have only just begun but the wealth of tools and info presented by Will Richardson in his keynote address is mind-numbing. Mahalo to Kamehameha Schools for putting this on and allowing educators from Hawaii to gather and embrace the challenge we face as educators in the 21st Century and in the most isolated, populated land mass in the world! I am sitting in a presentation about the growth of a school wide blogging initiative at Kamehameha Schools - Hawaii. Their elementary school has all teachers producing blogs regularly as a source of information and communication. This is a grassroots movement initiated by the teachers and school leadership. Their blogs are used as their newsletters and now a means of showing what is going on in class in real time. Their parents are beginning to appreciate the access they have to their children's education. I am wondering which of our Hawaii Catholic Schools are making use blogs? Please let me know how our Hawaii Catholic schools are using technology such as blogs to enhance our students learning experiences and engage them in the learning process. I will be tweeting updates at @4everaloha. Check it out.
