Educator technically demanding, not to be understood!?
Back in the spring of 2006, a few months had almost all the major universities set up its own channel on YouTube, were the tech-savvy educators make the rounds of edublogosphere. At that time, was a gift to teachers everywhere Godsent search for an alternative to the website of the increasingly blocked blogs for excellence. I thought about the whole project-technical educators for the coming school year, and hosted many of the projects from my son on the website. No advertising, no filtering or blocking, and best of all, I had a single game at the top with “Smart Technology Teacher”, which were magically 100% completely safe (in the eyes of many teachers and parents) of all the remains of poultry and commentators YouTube mouth bloggers and inappropriate content. Fast forward to today and the tech-savvy educators has become one of the worst examples of blogs online, so that I too have begun to explicitly point out to stop with the tech-savvy teachers to write comments Educator on its content. Why do I feel like you may ask? To be fair, I have broken my reasons in five different thoughts, so that the followers of the educator technically demanding, and the entrepreneur can behind the tech-savvy educators themselves in ways that best respond fixes the problems. That, and making lists is fun:) 1 Marketing does grieve me … I understand that the transactions, the technology savvy teachers make money (or at least earn enough venture capital to the attention of the edublogs in the hope of winning a purchase). But after several months of the blog and related advertising, publicity, even in my post (although linked text ads) is not cool. If he wanted publicity, I would stay on Blogger. com not your site. My students do not have to worry with the help of advertising link with his algebra of a mentoring service. You can get it from me, now, with the post I just posted! Also pick a target demographic and stick to it. Masters online advertising on a page while requesting “Rock Hard abs” next “to 2″ rules not exactly to his audience nailed it? Am I saying that you should drink to your ads? NO! But when you walk on every post you have to offer a subscription opt-out system voices. I’m sure there are many people who have agreed to pay about $ 5 per month to have their content freely. It would certainly be more money than I think it is connected to the ads are now reserved. 2nd Fix the crash bug Posting comment FeatureIn the past four weeks was not in a position to succeed a comment from home, school, and a “neutral” third party site (public library). The small Java manager tells me that everything goes well for most of the load and then right at the end, as I for the “All’s well that ends well am” statement of preparation, I get nothing. The Web browser times out, and the tech-savvy teacher is inaccessible to me like the machine I happen to be at least 5-10 minutes with help. Once again, is sensitive, you may have uploaded my post? But no! I have had the cost of “timeout” problem since I started the tech-savvy educators. It has become more pronounced, and the soul-crushing in recent months, to the point where I do not trust the tech-savvy educators moved at the right time to get, not to mention that he approved raising the earth shattering discovery about my current research work, why student primary headphone cables into the mouth. 3rd Homepages. . Specifically homepage MI. . should have. . MI on him, without clicking another link! ‘Nuff Said4. Presentation, presentation, not PresentationI’m in marketing or advertising, so I’m sure if the presentation of the word I’m looking for, but at least a little more attention to the perfect (or without paste) to the technically savvy educator experience is about the Web. When I visit the site and see the films that I presented to a good post player, visually attractive. Visit the same as in any other website embedded and the player is completely different. No notification buffering so you can see how the message is loaded, there is no rewind button, a Zen-spindle assures me something happens in the background. And yet I have a kind of third pivot when I met my shelf “post”, which means I’m not sure what he found. Select one seamless experience, and stick to it. My vote is for the player on the same site. 5th If so many other blogs that are better does go why? Edublogs * * * * Blogger BlogThis WordpressThe list could continue, but the point is that if you do not intend to innovate (loading and attaching the documents does not count), then at least to imitate! Too often in education than the effort of the second line when it comes to professional tools. Not always the best, the fastest computers in the school. Not always the best digital cameras to create content. Not even always have the first platform, the slate marker does not leave grease stains on the board, but we need to do, is responsible for implementation of our daily tasks! We call on the same line. Adopt even if some were “standard procedure, including post-sharing sites is equivalent to a small noticeable difference in the performance of the website, I say, go ahead! If blatantly copied from other websites features become technology savvy teacher in a power plant after the exchange, then full steam ahead! My real point is not to harp on how awful it is, the web site, but rather to point out that we as educators ways to leave us too many decisions are involved in a service below average. Because it is simply branded “for teachers “Do I have other complaints with the tech-savvy teachers? Yes, I appreciate the service of the tech-savvy educators offered has just existing? Sure, it served as an excellent catalyst for the post of education / distribution market, now we just need someone to the game gone. And if anyone have the game, only to spend the afternoon with still a blogger account to my own blog. : P And then can you have another blog that I publisize have to make it even more exciting to read to you all.
