So, I am currently doing double duty. I am trying to get edgycation.org here back in the swing of things, But I am also working on getting edgycation.jp up and running as well. Here is a video that I posted from my Faculty development series for that aspect of the site. I hope you like [...]
Hey all, Those who are subscribed to the feed know that 86 is up and takin out the trash. We spend a little time talking about: Teacher’s Podcast (a little intro with some constructive criticism) Audio Boo (a cool little audio blog-like site) And a great deal more time talking about Pragmatics. The wikipedia article [...]
Not gone, just some growing pains The good news is we aren’t going away. But the production schedule will be a little wonky. That’s what subscriptions are for!! lol Dig in and take a listen. And before you go, don’t forget to leave us a message on MyChingo on the right there, or a comment [...]
So for those of you with facebook accounts, you can now log into the comment system with your facebook login. I had mixed feelings about putting this in, Facebook scares me a little (even though we have a page over there, go become a fan!!). They are beginning to be everywhere, just kind of watching [...]
So, this post is very self indulgent. In episode 81 I mentioned using Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog in one of my classes. That set of classes wrapped up today, it was pretty informal or I would give you pages with questions etc. Anyway, I had decided to get a DVD copy of the show [...]

Hi everybody! Hope you enjoyed number 77. Scott and I are working on 78, it should be a good show. Currently we are getting hammered by the time change. Funny how just an hour difference can cause such a big problem. Anyway, we will be posting 78 soon. Keep an eye out and keep the [...]
For our comment friends, We now have a new comment system provided by disqus (pronounced “discuss”). It’s pretty cool because once you login to the system, you are logged into all disqus sites and best of all, comments are threaded! Plus they have video comments! SWEET! I’m kind of excited about it. I know, geek, [...]
This is an interesting vid. It’s referenced in the other video but it is good enough for a solo view. The idea of the changing world and how to prepare students will (hopefully) get you thinking. Scott D. has landed over at Moo U. so we are working hard to get you a new show [...]
