Newsletter ready

Bruce -

I just emailed you a first draft of the newsletter. Let me know what you think.

I am having trouble posting it to my site. Something has gone wrong with my communication with the server and local file. I have emailed Dr. Sun to ask her what I might have done wrong, but just in case we don't get an answer by Tuesday, can you post this on your site?

Welcome your thoughts.

Links

Dr. McP -

Thanks for the links. Actually broke out my PC and was able to get them.

We will be creating some kind of online newsletter for this.

Last one in the Webquest article provided.

enGauge - 21st Century Literacy Skills

Next 0ne.

CEO Forum Report

Next link.

Partnership for 21st C skills.

http://www.21stcenturyskills.org/

Maybe this link will work in the blog.

Starting the project

Bruce -

Have you thought about the 21st Century Skills project yet?

Reading the project description, seems we need to select "artifact development" responsibilities.

I would be pleased to perform the roles of project manager and BLOG initiator (as I have done here). Can you create the newsletter? I can email you some of the contents and ask you to assemble and contribute as well.

QUESTION: None of the weblinks worked for me. I am using a mac. Did you have better luck? I know we can do this without these links, but would be nice to check them out.

Welcome your thoughts.
