Britt KJ Thorpe wrote a new post, I’m Licensed!, on the site China to India 2012 1 week, 1 day ago

Okay, so I have finally visited http://creativecommons.org and selected a license. I’m still amazed by the ease of cutting and pasting widgets. (I’m totally into my Flag Counter and my WeeMe avatar) That’s […]
Britt KJ Thorpe commented on the post, Think Before You Link, on the site A Kick in the Head 4 weeks, 1 day ago

I don’t believe Carr’s articles are in our assigned readings for course 2, so I would not have read Carr’s work and I thank you for your blog.

I totally agree with Carr’s ideas (that came from his friend Steve […]
Britt KJ Thorpe wrote a new post, Wrapping My Brain Around The Via and The Hat Tip, on the site China to India 2012 4 weeks, 1 day ago

Just last night I was writing about how easy it is to add widgets to my blog and then today while reading for Course 2, Week 5 I read the Curator’s Code website, which is a request to users of digital work to […]
Britt KJ Thorpe wrote a new post, Defending Debbe, on the site China to India 2012 1 month ago

As I was casually cruising through week four’s readings, somewhat distracted by an incident that happened with my students last week (I’ll get to that later), I read Debbe Geiger’s article “When Dad Banned […]
Britt KJ Thorpe wrote a new post, Creative Commons is Brilliant!, on the site China to India 2012 1 month ago

As some other Coetailers have admitted, I too was getting bored reading about the importance of abiding by copyright law. In all honesty, I think it’s because what I create is very basic. I’m not linked into […]
Britt KJ Thorpe commented on the post, Share and Share Alike?, on the site Yet Another Blog 1 month ago

I am both you, sharing, and the other women, feeling that there are aspects of my teaching that are unique and that I would like to publish someday. The aspects of my teaching that are unique relate to my two […]
Britt KJ Thorpe commented on the post, Course 1 Final Project – Grade 2 – What Kind of Learner Am I?, on the site A Person is People 1 month, 1 week ago

I love the idea of using Voice Thread to comment on your own published work and then using this during Student Led Conferences. I’m just thinking about Weebly as a platform for digital portfolios that can be used […]
Britt KJ Thorpe wrote a new post, Creative Commons Question , on the site China to India 2012 1 month, 2 weeks ago

Again I call out to the more experienced Coetailers… I found this image on Wikipedia and I’ve linked the book to the Wikipedia page. There is a bunch of Creative Commons information on the Wikipedia page, but I […]

Great advice Jeff and it makes sense. I will add a slide at the end of my VoiceThread presentation that links the book back to Amazon.com.
Britt KJ Thorpe commented on the post, Online Privacy- Does it Exist?, on the site five.one.five.zero.zero 1 month, 2 weeks ago

Thank you for linking the PRC. Perhaps I should have read the section about blogging privacy before I started blogging. Likely, I won’t bother reading through much of the PRC deeply or closely because the legal […]
Britt KJ Thorpe commented on the post, Airbrushing your Digital Footprint, on the site Pyburn's Ponderings 1 month, 2 weeks ago

Another Coetailer just wrote about her friend who passed away and who was a great film maker but who kept his work in-house and therefore had a tiny digital footprint. I’m struck by your comment: ” but modesty, […]
Britt KJ Thorpe wrote a new post, Flawed Creatures Using a Powerful Tool, on the site China to India 2012 1 month, 2 weeks ago

I have been riveted by the recent blogs of my fellow Coetailers over the last few days. From the woman with the friend who is still dealing with a Digital Shadow to the Coetailer who experienced a complete lack […]
Britt KJ Thorpe wrote a new post, Spring is Finally Arriving: What am I Doing?, on the site China to India 2012 1 month, 2 weeks ago

I am reading about digital footprints; using my name in google, pipl,etc; and searching for a Creative Commons picture to add to my blog, and I really just want to enjoy going outside without gloves and a hat, […]
Britt KJ Thorpe commented on the post, Spring is Finally Arriving: What am I Doing?, on the site China to India 2012 1 month, 2 weeks ago

Hi Jeff, I realized that clicking on the picture creates a small picture on the picture and that allowed me to align and place a caption in the picture. Baby steps…

Now I’m trying to sort out adding widgets. […]

Britt KJ Thorpe wrote a new post, Lesson Plan Course One, on the site China to India 2012 1 month, 2 weeks ago

For my first real tech integration push, I have decided to attempt two goals. First, I want to learn how to use pictures legally when publishing on the Internet so that I can teach my students. And, second, I want […]
Britt KJ Thorpe commented on the post, Spring is Finally Arriving: What am I Doing?, on the site China to India 2012 1 month, 2 weeks ago

Hi Jeff, I’m looking for a way to wrap the text around my picture and for a way to put the code on the picture as a caption. I have not seen the two current videos yet, maybe you address these tasks in those […]
Britt KJ Thorpe commented on the post, See you on March 26th!, on the site COETAIL Online Cohort 2012-2013 2 months ago

I have never seen an AUP policy on tech at my school. Paula and I will be busy. How do we Paypal you for course two?
Britt KJ Thorpe commented on the post, Reflection On Puurquoi Tales Unit, on the site Journeys 2 months ago

Your point is well made, and I had not thought about how powerful it must be for the EAL students to feel skilled at the technology tool while feeling the struggle of writing in a new language. Perhaps the tech […]
Britt KJ Thorpe commented on the post, Lesson Plan Course One, on the site China to India 2012 2 months ago

Thank you for that. I linked the URL. There is supposedly a “W” somewhere on my blog and I cannot find it for the life of me. My friend said you press the W and then cut and paste your Word doc and the text enters […]
