Top 10 2006

I have been trawling the blogosphere as i put together my next Massey Assignment (again with a Web 2.0 focus) & have come across a number of entries where bloggers reflect on 2006 by choosing their top 10 entries of the year. So maybe i am procrastinating (again) here as i should be writing my assignment but i went back through BardWired 2006. My picks (just happen to be in chronological order):

1. Bard Wired: Dead Cats & Laptops

   I like this picture of the Dead Cat & it's similarities to the Dead Laptop. BTW the cat is now in a glass front display case; the Laptop has been returned to the Laptop Co. & the bill sent to the teacher; the picture of the laptop is been requested by the MOE ICT Unit probably for a cautionary tales presentation; another mummified animal has since been found (a mouse - perhaps the cat & mouse met their end together?); and Eltham Primary School nearly has a brand new admin. block built.
   

2. Bard Wired: Bard Kidz - Movie Magic Day

   This day was one of my highlights of the year.

3. Bard Wired: Bard Wired's Bigger Bang...

   This day was also another highlight of the year.

4. Bard Wired: The Vision Vacuum

   Simple but not simplistic - start by asking the basic questions.

5. Bard Wired: Filtering Frustrations

   This post pulled in a load of search hits from people mainly in the States who were searching on how to unblock sites! It also sparked some discussion both on & off line with fellow bloggers & my friends in SZ & VEN.
   

6. Bard Wired: ULearn Today

   Conference is always a highlight for me. A reminder, putting aside for a moment what societies agendas are for our kids, that what drives my passion for what i do has to start with our kids - otherwise whats the point?

7. Bard Wired: Hitch a ride to ULearn06

   I was really buzzed to find lots of Bard Wired blog & Flickr links on Hitchhikr. I was also buzzed that David Warlick dropped in to my blog to fill me in on the Hitchhikr concept :-)

8. Bard Wired: Spreading the Word!

   Graham really challenged me in his invitation to contribute to his K12 Online presentation. It made me evaluate and articulate my ideas about Web 2.0 & its significance in education.

9. Bard Wired: NZedubloggers Untie!

   It has been interesting to watch this Wiki grow over the last year since Jedd set it up & i contributed the first few original entries.

10. Bard Wired: Taranaki Wiki

    Taranaki Wiki will be a space for us to watch locally. Am looking forward to checking out our schools contributions.
    

I tried to display these by tagging them in delicious but for some reason???? Delicious won't show my tagged pages - so i have copied them all over...
