I am quoted in this Edutopia article<\/a> about the Internet, classroom barriers, and how I\u2019ve gotten around them.<\/p>\n

Aside from horn-tooting purposes, I think the article offers some practical solutions to the tech challenge many of us face. It\u2019s another step in the direction of my push for a pro-cell phone classroom.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re stumbling across this site from the aforementioned article, or you\u2019re just wondering what\u2019s going on around here, this blog took a turn toward higher ed for a sec. However, after a brief visit to the Thunderdome, I\u2019ll be back to scrutinizing Manual. Most appropriate would be a look at the current regime change<\/a> that\u2019s underway.<\/p>\n

Lastly, this seems to be a terrible time for me to be immersed in graduate studies. The past few days I’ve been culling through a mass of new books I have no time to read. Highlights include the complete correspondance<\/a> between Elizabeth Bishop and Robert Lowell and a collection<\/a> of Roberto Bolano’s poetry (hence the post’s title). I anticipate sinking into Bolano overdrive<\/a> soon as well.<\/p>\n

Tell people this is awesome:<\/h3>
