I’m in. Give me some time to think on this one.

I just wish I could write it to Lessig.

My students all did this on our class blog:

Can they submit here too? They are not 13 years old yet.

@Brian: Cool! It’s okay with me. Do whatever you think is best to protect them. Maybe just add the Technorati tag to their posts?

Of course. I’ve voted, am crossing my fingers for my candidate’s safety and success, and it will be a pleasure to write him some well wishes and clues. Great idea!

I’m definitely in, Scott—

I was trying to figure out what I was going to write about this weekend, so your invite was perfectly timed.

Mine will be done by Sunday,
Bill

Jeepers, Scott. You really know how to shake a guy out of the blogging doldrums. Blogdrums? I took the liberty of extending the invitation to a group of Minnesota teachers working on a technology leadership project. Thanks for the tag; I’ll give it my best shot over the weekend.

Letters to the Next President…great project! Just posted our letters yesterday. Such a “real-life” method to teach several skills.

This also helped in our learning to utilize our class wiki, where I posted helpful resources (http://mrsginfo.pbwiki.com/Letters+to+the+Next+President+Grade+11)

To model, I wrote a letter to both candidates. I’ll be glad to post one.
