On Tuesday, August 7th, I spoke with Larry Jacobs at Blog Talk Radio about my book Blended Learning in Grades 4-12: Leveraging the Power of Technology to Create Student-Centered Classrooms. Larry asks me about my experiences integrating technology into my classroom to create a blended learning model.

I also had the pleasure of speaking with Jeffery Bradbury at TeacherCast about “Giving Every Student a Voice” using online discussions and a blended learning model. Bradbury asks me about my desire to give every student in my class a voice. Listen as we discuss:
- What is the best way to create digital citizens?
- How soon should we begin training our students Internet safety?
- What type of voices should we give our students?
- Should we train our students in the parking lot or on the highway?
- How should teachers/parents/adults model positive digital behavior?
- What technology is safe and what is not safe for students of middle and high school ages?
- Are discussions critical to learning?
- Why take it online?
- How can we create a safe space online?
