Social Media and The History Classroom - 2011 MCSS

Hello.  Today I'm presenting at the 2011 Missouri Council for Social Studies Conference in Kansas City.  My topic is how history teachers can use social media to collaborate and enrich their curriculum. 

You can view the Prezi that I will be sharing at the conference.  A list of links related to the presentation are included below the Prezi.

St Louis - Morning Walk to the Arch

I spent part of last week in St. Louis at the MCSS (Missouri Council for the Social Studies) Conference. Our conference was held at the Hyatt about a block away from The Arch. On Saturday morning I walked over at around 8:00 AM and took some great pictures. The clouds were just right and the winter sun was shining. You can check out my Flickr set of The Arch here.
