Taking a page from the Linux handbook, we try to fit the Bazaar vs. the Cathedral metaphor to ESL Programs and see what emerges. There are some compelling ideas in here, but we are interested in your opinion. This all came from this podcast. If you use moodle or blackboard it is a worthwhile listen.

I am going to be re-arranging the feed a little bit. We will move the first 50 shows over to an archive feed.

What does this mean for you? If you are a long-time listener, you won’t notice any change at all everything will be where it has always been and the shows you have downloaded won’t move. If you are a new listener, there is a link on the left you can paste into iTunes (or your favorite podcatcher) to get the first 50 shows. I’ll eventually get a second spot in the iTunes music store for that feed as well.

Drop me a note or comment if you have any questions!

As always, the feed for the show is in the right side links or, if you want, you can catch them here.

A talk with Phillip Clark about using writing journals in class and how he organizes them. Some good ideas here with the potential to be used in a wide variety of levels!I am going to be re-arranging the feed a little bit. We will move the first 50 shows over to an archive feed.

 It is pretty hefty, so it may take a while to download.

This is the video from the NY presentation (April 2008).  Nice room, but would have been  better if it were a little larger and the doors had been in the back…  oh well, maybe next time.

I have been listening to a lot of “This American Life” lately. They did a show on the 10 commandments and I thought that’d be a fun platform. So here is our 10 for the classroom. What would you add or take away?

Actually, it’s been up for a couple of days, I just forgot to post my blurb!

This episode we dig into karma. The virtuous and vicious circle of energy that can make or break a class. No definite solutions in here because each situation is different, but sometimes just being able to identify a problem sets you on the road to a solution.

So as you may have noticed, We put up the Randy Pausch video the other day. I liked it so much I wanted to do a show around it. Three big things in this one: Childhood dreams, Enabling others childhood dreams and lessons learned. What are yours?

Also, (but not in the show) I am looking around for other podcasts aimed at esl/efl teachers.  I haven’t had a lot of luck finding any. How about you? What shows are you listening to? Drop me a note or leave the show name in the comments. (We’ll be asking about them next week.)

Yikes, I caught a cold on the way back from New York. Wow, I guess it has been too long since I have been really sick. At least the fever has broken, now I just have to gt rid of the cough. I hope it didn’t mess up the show too much. I didn’t actually hack up a lung while we were recording but it did feel as though I could have.

Late, but the show is up and we actually have a schedule moving now.  The semester has started and we have taken our bran, the show should be regular

Gotta keep this one short,
