This is coming from Dangerously Irrelevant for all education bloggers. It is a request to participate in a short survey on education and blogging.

  1. Complete the short and completely unscientific, but hopefully interesting, education blogoshpere survey;
  2. Forward the URL of said survey to all other known education bloggers to ensure decent representation of the education blogosphere; and
  3. Publicize said survey URL on their own blogs to foster greater participation in this most noble endeavor.

Teacher Meme

Posted by Cheryl Lykowski on 6th January 2007

This is coming from Lucy Gray at   A Teacher’s Life ~http://elemenous.typepad.com/weblog/ 

 Follow this link to see how far the project as gone and add your info to the meme.

Link: Google Earth Community: Teacher Meme.

Then follow this info. to participate in the meme created by Lucy Gray.

For this project, I am choosing two questions and you can answer just one or both:

1) What has been your most memorable learning experience?
2) Who is the teacher that has influenced you the most?and why?

Here are the technical directions. Feel free to edit as you pass this on:

To create a placemark describing your most memorable teacher or learning experience:

1) Open Google Earth.
2) Fly to the address of your choice. This is the point where you will add a placemarks. It should be your work address or home address, whatever you feel comfortable with.
3) Go to the Add menu and select Add Placemark.
4) Drag the new Placemark to the exact location of your address.
5) Edit fields as necessary. Label the placemark with your name. Put your written text in the description field. Add an url to anything you think might be relevant  such as your website or blog. You can change the style and color of the placemark if you wish
6) When you are done, right click or control click on the placemark and select the email option from the file menu. Email it to me,  Lucy Gray <elemenous@gmail.com>. I will compile all the .kmz files and post the most recent updates on my blog: [url=http://lucygray.org.]http://lucygray.org.[/url]
7) OPTIONAL: Upload the .kmz file to your blog if you have one. Add a relevant tag so that it can be found in a Technorati search.  Possible tags could be meme, GoogleEarthmeme, or teachermeme.
