 Post Your Video Link Here! I am not sure if anyone has seen this video but I found it very interesting. We have talked a lot about technology and what is out there to use with our students and this expands on that. I was in a school last week and everything I tried to get into was blocked. There was limited access to the many things that this video is telling us to use. I also thought it was interesting that schools are constantly telling students to get stop using cell phones and i-pods and this video is saying if you can't beat them, join them. The students are not going to stop using technology so we need to start using it more in the classroom to engage them. Lisa Flynn []  Stan: I found a new video to be shown to children about to enter 9th grade. It is very informative, and sets the pace for a quick 4 years to graduation []

Allen: I am looking into a possible mentoring program for my school and came across an organization called AIM High. I will look at some of the other videos that they have on youtube. here is on []

Nancy: This is a Daniel Pink interview regarding a book that he is writing on motivation. I found his points on intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation very interesting and definitely something to consider in my classroom. Motivating students is something that we have discussed at different points in this class and personally one of the most frustrating barriers I find for student success in the workplace! This is a book that I will be watching out for and an author to watch as well. **http://tinyurl.com/ouqsbp**
