Ok heres my opinion:
i got the w800i a week ago. I LOVE it. I was gonna get the nano ipod but for a couple more hundred $$$ i can get a phone, an mp3 player, pic camera and video cam, not to mention internet usage. all the features on the phone are awesome no complaints at all. minor thing about the phone is that switching between pages or picture are a lil too slow. but understandable b/c it loads up 2MP of pic. file. The manual this phone came with isn't really the most informative out there. but don't worry cuz SE has a web support site. the video quality isnt the best out there either. but for personal preferences, i really dont care much. The software it came with hasn't work on my pc. tried a couple of times. i just wanted the disc2phone software. BUT i found out a way to transfer files to the mem. card. I have a sony digi cam that uses the same mem stick. so i just swapped the mem card from the phone to the camera so i can access the files from a card reader. then i just dragged the files i wanted to listen from my itunes folder to the mem card folder. and thats it! iall i have to do is transfer the mem card back to the phone and everything is good. Now all i need is a bigger memory capacity for the phone.
the newest thing right now, i guess for phones, is tv playback. which isnt a real concern for me because i don't want to pay more on my cell bill for a tv subscription.
Over all, i am very satisfied with the w800i. i found a place to get em cheap. well the cheapest i have found is buy.com. they have it for about $430 w/ free s&h for US buyers. I got mine on ebay. So if u want to buy this phone be sure to check out buy.com. i hope this review helped u people. if u have any questions, email me.
PS: i still haven't figured out how to turn the shutter noise off. i've tried putting the phone on silent mode but it still makes the shutter sound.
Hi guys
The se w800 is such a coold fone but the D600 can connect to a tv the w800 cant but music wise the w800 is a good phone and good memory card that it comes with
Got it yesterday, doesent work!
Cant transfer albums to the phone, phone is emty or files have no sound.
Calls SE "support" right away:
"It is a known error" tha lady says with a yawn...
"A sollution is on the way"
I cursed when Nokia did delay the release of the N91, but at least it will (probably) work when released to the stores.
Daam you SE for having this software problems and still sell the phone!!
Had exactly the same problems with the k500i, Sended it back 6 or 7 times, eventually got a new one which I sold right away!!
Anyway, will take it back and get a Nokia N90 instead, dont really like it but maybe it works.....
look boys n girls ive had both fones, i took back the d600 because it was rubbish to say the least and you can guess what i replaced it with! samsung just cant cut it like SE
SE is an a modern wonder, and if the speakers are in mono i swear u cant tell, they are that gud.
am sick of all these samsung users comin' on and tryin to justify why they made a mistake of gettin a samsung instead of a SE. why dont you people talk on your section?!
and at the end of the day who honestly cares!
If you want a phone for great sound and loads of space to store songs then go for this NOT the D600,this is a very cool phone
I agree with James. The w800 is on EBay right now...i hate it, its embarrassing!!
In regards to all the dispute over sam d600 and se w800... i wasn't sure about sam phone. though it was one of those cool flip phones samsung used to do. but seeing the kinda toy samsung made w/d600....
Man! I mean, it's like a toy phone, seems it's gonna go break itself anytime!
I was a big nokia fan, but when se came into place.... well that was a whole different storey.
Sam d600 might be slightly better in cam n video... but it will never outstand features for SE!
hey, adrian get real, there is a lot more the d600 can offer (PICSEL VIEWER (office document reader, PICTURE BRIDGE, BMW AND AUDI COMPATIBILITY AND AN AWARD WINNER,etc. I know adrian that the truth hurts.
Even if you combine the brand SONY,ERICSSON, SENDO, PANASONIC, ALCATEL and sharp to name a few to form SONYERICSSONSENDOPANASONICALCATELSHARP BRAND, It still cannot outshine SAMSUNG.
So why do you choose D600?
COOL HOT......................... desperate and insecure ADRIAN
You choose
mm w800 display is 176 x 220 and i think if you have that large display on samsung you need 16M colors and no 256K, w800's sound is better without need the stereo speaker, mm that's all your advantage, does it replace all features i sayed about w800????
What would you chooose?
176x200 Display or 320X240 Pixels Display?
176X144 Pixels Video or 352X288 Pixels Video?
Mono Speaker or Stereo 3D Speaker?
A typical candy bar or a unique slider?
Let's put it this way :
If you put W800 & D600 side by side, you open the phone & take a look at d displays of both phone, play the MP3 simultaneously, D600 definitely wins. W800 is a great phone but it is inferior to D600, W800 looks $300.00 cheaper by merely looking at d design of form factor.
But if you want a phone with excellent MP3 & u always hide your phone in your pocket bcoz u listen to the MP3 through d headset, then get W800. But if you wanna impress everyone & you always show your phone just like everybody else, then get the D600, nothing looks more expensive & goodlooking than this one.
Well, I just the W800 with the K750i housing. I traded my Samsung D500 for W800 and I just have to pay 100 extra since I used the D500 for 1 month. This is a very special W800...the orginal K750i (well my friend flash the K750i so now it's have W800i version in it) so basically it is a W800i with K750 housing....I got that with the SE bt608 came with it...all together I just pay my friend extra 100...so do you think it's worth that much for W800?
Does this phone have monophonic or stereo speakers?
Can you play the stereo speakers as mp3s?
How good is mp3 quality, is it better than ipod?
Could this replace an mp3 player?
Whats the difference between mono and stereo speakers and which is better and why?
lets put it this way, i love music, i respect sony and my favorite color is orange, so what have i got, of course its SE W800, no more, no less...
ooopps, one more thing, my friend works in a phone shop, SEW800 is sold out but not d600. mobile prices here in u.k. is not a problem therefore i conclude people went to buy w800i not because its cheaper but because its far better than d600. surveys says SE is the winner compared to d600.
No, you can not use cingular with this phone. (well with good service)...This is not QUAD-BAND, like the D600. If you want a great phone with equal features AND MORE..go for the D600, much better phone with better reception in the U.S. and other countries. D600 works in EVERY country in the world except Japan and South Korea(NO GSM). w800 works in about 2/3 of the countries. Hmm
TV output is the problem?¿?¿ ok, sony ericsson has an accesory called "bluetooth media center"; with it you can send pictures, mp3 and mpeg and 3gp videos by the bluetooth and then connect the media center to the TV, and now you're watching your multimedia on TV.
what more?? stereo speakers...
stereo speakers are hardware and no software, they don't have anything sense with the mp3 player, and i'm sure they're not enough.
w800 can connect to a stereo, does d600 can??
w800 can connect its mp3 files to any radio, ddoes d600 can??
w800 can support 30 hours playing music, does d600 can??
i don't think so
ebayer pleaso don't write in two phones iqual comments, is tired to respond twice
Well the phone does hang up when sending files by BT. Not sure about the reason though. As far as games, all nokia jar games can also be played on SE W 800. You dont even need an installer. Just send the game jar file to SE via blue tooth. And u can find free games on yahoo groups, simply be a memeber of nokia 6230i on yahoo groups.........Cheers
Hi folks
I am a neutral user and go for the best be it nokia, SE or samsung. I liked W 800 but I think N-70 has surpassed it in looks, image quality, video quality, ease of usage, and definitely price. Though the walkman feature of W 800 is excellent. So to me, in a nutshell, if u can afford N-70 and music is not ur main concern for a phone, go for N-70. Samsung I am afraid has nothing new to offer at this stage. The worst thing about samsung is a lack of CD in its package.

MCHS Class of 1981 - We Like to Rock!
It occurred to me today that my 30th class reunion is exactly six months away. WHICH MEANS, I have six months to lose probably five pounds. (I don't know exactly how many because I'm afraid to step on the scale. All I know is that I have rolls sound my waist.)
Things do change by the 30th reunion. Not just how many mates you've had or how many grandchildren you have, but they way people view and behave at the 30th reunion.
Here are my class reunions, from my point of view:
10th Reunion: At the 10th reunion there was as much pressure and effort to look good as there was for any "big dance": looking months in advance for "just the right dress," growing your hair out for "just the right look," and insisting you spouse come along so you could show him or her off (almost like a prize). Most of us were just beginning our careers, some had been married just a little while, and some of us were having the first of our children. Others were on their second spouse already and had not accomplished much at all. The point was you felt you had something to prove; that you had risen above the limitations of high school, matured, married well, and made something of yourself.
There was an invitation mailing (this was before the Internet and Facebook). There was a fee to cover the weekend activities. There was pamphlet listing what each classmate was doing/where living/who married to now. Friday afternoon many participated in a newly established scholarship golf tournament honoring one of our lost classmates. Friday night featured a casual gathering with snacks, and Saturday night featured a more formal buffet dinner where everyone dressed up real fancy-like. Sunday, before we all went our separate ways, we had a picnic at the beach. Definitely a lot of work for the organizers.
The men had not all yet lost their hair and gained their pot bellies, and the women were still somewhat slim themselves. Some classmates had already left us, and their pictures were on a table with a votive candle in front of each: one hit by a car, one lost in a farm accident, a possible suicide, another one, a good friend of mine, an early victim of AIDS. Five boys in all by 1991. The 10th reunion was the one and only time my good friend Derb has attended a reunion so far. I wish I could see him again.
20th Reunion: The tone is noticeably more casual, and e-mail was used to get the word out. The Mike Hazelton Memorial Scholarship Tournament on Friday and the gathering at the fire station on Friday night, featuring a local band made up of classmates from our class and the class before us. It was off to the Elks club on Saturday night for more of the same. New mates all around, more grandparents, and many who are gay finally feel comfortable in their own skin and are able to "be themselves." The 20th reunion had a substantially more relaxed atmosphere with old friends who are just happy to see each other again, spending a couple of hours together.
25th Reunion: Was five years too soon after the last reunion? The celebration is much like the 20th, but on Saturday night, it's a 70s dance party at a bar we all used to frequent, a place that has seen better days. I had to miss the Saturday night event, but rumor has it my down-the-street childhood-playmate-neighbor, who's now a law professor at the University of Baltimore, danced on a table in leather pants. Pictures don't lie, Mike.
Some classmates are on their third marriage, with multiple children all around for most. Bridging the gap with small talk and trying to make a connection, the focus turns to talk of careers and the passing of family pictures with these familiar strangers, and sometimes it's hard to see our friends in the faces who have changed so much.
30th Reunion: Coming up the first weekend in July. Featuring the usual activities, but there's comfort in the routine, isn't there? Formality is out the door, but this year there may be a special surprise: the organizers have invited April Wine, the late 70s, early 80s Canadian rock band who sang MCHS Class of '81's signature long, We Like to Rock, have been invited to perform for our group. It may cost more, but wouldn't been be cool?
People are more confident, and some of the spouses might even be encouraged to stay home ("you'll be so bored," or "I really want to just hang and catch up with friends for the night") as our confidence ourselves as adults has increased. Most of us aren't that afraid to go places by ourselves, and we don't need a spouse to demonstrate our success. We are defining success on our own terms. No offense to our spouses, but this has become about "us" again.
The 30th reunion table of classmates who have passed will feature a couple more: one lost to cancer, one to cystic fibrosis. There are those who have never come to a reunion, and this year will be no different. Or, maybe this will be "the year" since they have reconnected with so many old friends on Facebook (peer pressure, even when you're in your late 40s = a good thing). There will be others of us who will attend to bask in the illusion of ease and grand happiness that we think characterized our teen years, as we step back in time for just a little while.

Part II
Pismo Beach
After the long lay over in San Fran I was ready to hop on the plane again. This connecting flight would take me to San Luis Opispo, where the wedding would take place. It was on this flight that everything became real to me. I'm not only on a short vacation, but I'm going to witness and document my really good friend's wedding! Since I can't really sleep on planes at this point I was up for around 24 hrs. And yes, I was exhausted, but happy.
My friend picked me up from the airport and we headed home for a quick bite and then off to bed. I stayed with my dad, and his parents in a really nice condo.
We got up the next day, ate some breakfast and decided to head out and walk around a bit. First stop Pismo Beach!
That's what you call beach front property. You have a lawn and ya, a beach!
We didn't realize it until later on, but it seems like there is fog everyday due to the ocean air which goes away just after noon. Still, the beach was beautiful.
A portion of the boardwalk looked like this. Really nice!
This is a photo taken from the pier looking back towards the boardwalk area.
This is a look up the beach on the other side. Is it just me or is it just impossible to take a bad photo of this beach!
This is a view down the pier.
We passed several people fishing on this pier. Seems to be pretty popular. And with this weather and scenery who could complain?
This is right across from the little shop on the pier. Pretty cool.
This is one last look up the beach before we headed off. Pismo Beach is awesome!
So we headed back to enjoy some lunch and then to the rehearsal. Then we enjoyed a fun family cookout. Good times! And we all tried to get a good night's sleep as the big day was approaching. Stay tuned for part III - Eric and Maria's California Wedding!!

Illegal tobacco farmers have been warned they will be caught and punished after the Australian Taxation Office made major seizures in NSW and Victoria worth more than $17 million.
A property in the Monaro region in southern NSW was raided by police on Tuesday morning following a joint investigation with the ATO.
They found 92,000 tobacco plants, more than two tonnes of tobacco leaves, $15,000 cash, a shotgun and ammunition at the property.
Police say the total value of the seizure exceeded $11 million and while nobody has been charged the investigation is continuing.
A similar operation near Kerang, in northern Victoria, also on Tuesday resulted in the seizure of $5.8 million worth of tobacco from a 15-acre plantation.
Tax office deputy commissioner Michael Cranston says the raids send a message to those participating in the illegal industry.
"You will be discovered and there will be consequences," he said in a statement.
"The fact that some people believe they won't be caught is astounding."
It has been illegal to grow tobacco in Australia for more than a decade.
Mr Cranston said the black market not only supported organised crime but took tax dollars away from the Australian community.
Anyone caught producing tobacco in Australia can face a penalty of up to two years in jail.

I have collected statistics on a table today. I want to compare this stats to the older stats that were there on this table before collecting today's stats.
Is there a way to do so. I have not saved the old statistics of the table anywhere.
Little uegent. Quick reply would be appreciated.
No way, the old stats are overwritten.
The only solution would be a COPY of that table from the last backup, which also restores the stats.
Fast enough? :-)

Appeared in Quadrant, December 2002
In October 2001, Amina Lawal, a northern Nigerian woman, was convicted of adultery after falling pregnant more than nine months after her divorce. Her sentence is to be stoned to death, but only after she has weaned her infant, the evidence of her offense. This sentence is due to be carried out some time in 2003.
Amina Lawal's plight has attracted remarkable interest throughout the world. A question crying out to be asked is 'Why?' On what basis did a Nigerian Islamic shari'a court come to this decision? Why should the penalty for adultery be a stoning? And why should this penalty be deferred until Amina's child is weaned?
'Shari'a' simply means 'way' — the way for the Muslim community to live. But on what basis is the Islamic shari'a or 'way' constructed?
The key to understanding shari'a is Muhammad himself, Allah's Messenger. His life is taken as the perfect example for all to follow, and his teaching the only sure guide to righteousness. This is established by divine revelation in the Qur'an:
Verily in the Apostle of Allah you have the best example for everyone who looks forward towards Allah and the Day of Judgement (Sura 33:21).
Whatever the Apostle commands you, accept it; and whatever he forbids you, avoid (Sura 59:7).
Whenever Allah and the Apostle have decided a matter, it is not for a faithful man or woman to follow a course of their own choice (Sura 33:36).
Shari'a law, as a creation of classical Islam, represents the systematization of Muhammad's example and teaching. It sets the standard for enjoining right and forbidding wrong. Muslim practices such as paying a poor-tax, women wearing the hijab, and five-times daily acts of worship, all take their authority from the teaching and example of Muhammad.
The stoning penalty in shari'a law
What then in Muhammad's teaching and example could possibly be the basis for the Nigerian shari'a court's decision that Amina Lawal should be stoned for adultery?
This penalty is clearly supported by secure traditions. Muhammad himself directed the implementation of this penalty. Several instances are recorded, for example Ibn Umar reported witnessing the stoning of a Jewish couple for adultery: "Allah's Apostle ordered that the two be stoned to death, and so they were stoned." (Sahih Bukhari 8.809). Other secure traditions list adultery, along with apostasy and murder of a fellow Muslim, as one of only three lawful reasons for putting a Muslim to death. Based on traditions such as these, found in all the six canonical collections of hadiths, all four schools of Islamic shari'a agreed that the penalty for a married adulterer is stoning to death, so this penalty has been a permanent part of the shari'a since its inception under Muhammad.
Why then the suspension of the penalty for a pregnant woman until her child is born and weaned? In this too the Nigerian judges show that they are acting in accordance with Muhammad's example. Muslim in his canonical collection of hadith relates the story of the 'woman from Gamid':
There came to him (the Holy Prophet) a woman from Gamid and said: 'Allah's Messenger, I have committed adultery, so purify me.' He (the Holy Prophet) turned her away. On the following day she said: 'Allah's messenger, why do you turn me away? ... By Allah I have become pregnant.' He said 'Well, if you insist upon it, then go away until you give birth.' When she was delivered she came with the child (wrapped) in a rag, and said 'Here is the child whom I have given birth to.' He said 'Go away and suckle him until you wean him.' When she had weaned him, she came to him (the Holy Prophet) with the child who was holding a piece of bread in his hand. She said 'Allah's Apostle, here is he as I have weaned him and he eats food.' He (the Holy Prophet) entrusted the child to one of the Muslims and then pronounced punishment. And she was put in a ditch up to her chest and he commanded people and they stoned her. (Sahih Muslim 4206)
Stoning as expiation
This hadith also reveals an important aspect of this penalty: the stoning was regarded as cleansing the penitent from her sin of adultery. When the woman from Gamid says 'so purify me', she was asking to be stoned. Islamic commentary on this passage usually extols her pious example.
When a 27-year old follower of the Indonesian Laskar Jihad known as 'Abdullah' – not his real name – confessed to adultery and then submitted to death by stoning, he was widely hailed as a hero of the shari'a cause. In May of 2001 the magazine Suara Hidayatullah presented Abdullah's family with a 'Syariah Award' for his example, giving them 10 million Rupiah. Wisnu Pramudya, the editor of Suara Hidayatullah Magazine said in a simple ceremony attended by a number of Indonesian Muslim leaders that the stoning of Abdullah represented a milestone in Indonesian Muslims' struggle to save the nation through the implementation of Islamic shari'a.
Is there any alternative?
Is there no way to get around this? No escape-route for the devout adherent to the way of the prophet of Islam? The Hebrew Torah advocates the very same penalty, yet Judaism and Christianity have managed to dispense with it. Why shouldn't Islam be able to do the same?
For Christians, Jesus laid the practice to rest by his example with the woman caught in adultery (John 8:7). Rabbinic Judaism has also eradicated this penalty.
Allah sent Muhammad with the Truth and revealed the holy book to him, and among what Allah revealed, was the verse of Rajam (the stoning of married persons, male and female, who commit adultery) and we did recite this verse and understood and memorized it. Allah's Apostle did carry out the punishment of stoning and so did we after him. I am afraid that after a long time has passed, somebody will say "By Allah's Book", we do not find the Verse of Rajam in Allah's Book, and thus they will go astray by leaving an obligation which Allah has revealed.
It is puzzling that this verse is not found the Qur'an. A classical interpretation is that the precise words of the verse were abrogated, but the command was retained.
Muhammad was well aware of the possibility that this law might be neglected. He was also aware that the Jews had abandoned the stoning penalty in favour of a more humane punishment. This formed one of the main grounds for his charge against them that they were no longer observing the law as given to them by God. The Sahih Muslim (paragraph 4214) records that a series of Qur'anic verses were 'sent down' at that time rebuking the Jews for neglecting the Torah's stoning law, including Sura 5:45:
Whoso judgeth not by that which Allah hath revealed: such are wrong-doers.
This explicit condemnation of the Jews for abandoning stoning makes it that much more difficult for later generations of Muslim jurists to follow Judaism's example. Since classical Islam was understood to have corrected the religious corruptions of the Jews, including their failure to adhere to the Torah, how can Islam accept that the example of the Jews – which Muhammad specifically condemned – is preferable to Muhammad's own example?
One might well conclude that place of the stoning penalty in shari'a law finds very strong support within Islam.
Many Muslims do reject stoning, and there have been Muslim voices amongst the world-wide condemnation of Amina Lawal's sentence. Some point out that the Qur'an does not mandate this penalty: all it mentions is flogging for illegal intercourse (Sura 24:2).
On the other hand, the shari'a court judges of Nigeria are undoubtedly aware of the strong supports for stoning. It will not be enough simply to condemn Amina Lawal's sentence as 'un-Islamic', an example of 'patriarchy' or as something incompatible with human rights in Islam. The clear grounds for stoning adulterers in Muhammad's example and teaching need to be thoroughly acknowledged and dealt with if conservative Muslims are to remove this sentence from the Islamic shari'a.
A final question
All around the world, shari'a law is very much on the rise. In the past 50 years, virtually every Muslim state has taken steps, however small, towards re-implementing it. The case of Pakistan is entirely typical. In 1947 it was established as a secular state. In 1956 it was proclaimed a Muslim state. In the 1970s a shari'a court was established, and in 1984 blasphemy against Islam was declared a capital offense.
This trend cannot be ignored. Reintroduction to the statute books of the stoning penalty in nations as far-flung as Nigeria, Sudan and Malaysia is just one symptom of the world-wide shari'a revival.
In March 1999 John Garang, the Sudanese chairman of the Sudan Peoples' Liberation Movement, posed the following question to a press conference in Geneva:
"I ask this very important question: is the jihad a religious right of those who declare and wage it, or is it a violation of the human rights of the people against whom it is declared and waged?"
John Garang was referring to the Sudanese jihad, declared by Khartoum against the people of southern Sudan and the Nuba Mountains, as one aspect of the northern Sudanese implementation of the Islamic shari'a.
Now, more than two years later, Amina Lawal's story raises the same question: Is the implementation of Islamic shari'a law an exercise of a religious right, because it arises from a faith community's desire to live out the principles of their religion? Or does the Islamic shari'a deprive human beings of fundamental human rights?

Mysteriously mesmerizing, the portraits by painter Chad Wys are eerie and dramatic, making for a stunningly decorative pillow collection for home design company Mineheart.
Dark shadows and distorted facial features give the pillows a sinister edge that is thrilling and arresting. A good way to add some dark glamor to a room is to place a couple of these artistic cushions on a sofa or lounge chair, simultaneously decorating the furnishings and incorporating more artwork into a room. The designs are familiar in their old classical portraiture style, yet they revisit this aesthetic with a modern take that alters our perceptions on traditional artwork.
With four portraits by Chad Wys to choose from, this decorative pillow collection for Mineheart is certainly for people who appreciate fine art and modern design.

So the next couple of weeks are going to be huge for me! Next week is the Comic Create Event at Drawn To Comics and then May 1st is going to be Free Comic Book Day at Samurai Comics. I will be drawing for people at both events and I can honestly say I'm a little nervous since I really haven't drawn in front of other people in quite some time... at least drawn a picture where I really wanted it to look good. To see more info on the event you can view the information here-
This link is for the comic create event. Also, this is a quick painting I did in photoshop playing around with my new tablet. I only has a basic knowledge of the program so far but I have been slowly progressing.

Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Victoria Nuland said speaking in Washington-based German Marshall Fund, Censor.NET reports citing Ukrinform.
"Crimean sanctions will remain as long as there is occupation," Nuland said.
At the same time, she said, the U.S. authorities are confident that the report on the causes of the Malaysian Boeing crash in the east of Ukraine will confirm their position on those responsible for this tragedy.
Nuland expressed hope that the Netherlands would manifest the investigation results in a week or 10 days. She also expressed confidence that the statement of Secretary of State John Kerry that was made three days after the attack would be confirmed in terms of who was responsible for this attack and weapons that were involved in downing.
She stressed that the perpetrators must be brought to justice, which was extremely important not only for Ukraine but also for the international community.

I didn't really know what I was getting into coming to EduCon2015 in Philly. Every conference has a different vibe that is a function of variables like people, setting, location, and x-factors (Sal Khan was at iNACOL 2015 and although he is a person, he's also an x-factor that makes my geek meter go off the chart and the conference ultra-memorable.).
Educon has a very student-teacher-school-based feel, as it's hosted by the Science and Leadership Academy, a unique public partnership high school between the Philadelphia DOE and the Franklin Institute. This partnership set the stage for a conference based around innovation and lots of progressive thinking. And since it's hosted in an actual school, it felt like I belonged there even thought it's not my school. Sitting in classrooms and having discussions with other educators and stakeholders just feels natural.
EduCon doesn't have sessions like a regular conference does. It has conversations. I initially thought this sounded gimmicky, but it was appropriate. Basically, it was less lecture and more discussion and sharing amongst educators. Exactly what I was hoping for. The conversations ranged all over from technological to philosophical to anthropological and beyond.
Below are some highlights, thoughts, ideas, and resources I picked up in the conversations along the way…
General Tidbits to Start With
I'm amazed at how much awesome technology exists and is being developed for teachers. The market is bursting. Zaption is a cool one that embeds prompts and questions into videos that you make (presumably on Educreations or something like it). I recently started using Padlet, an online bulletin/posting board, to have class challenges. Then I use them for discussion. My colleague and I also just collaborated on a Weebly that hosts all of the resources we are using for a 7th grade Ratio and Proportions Unit we are doing this week. I know some might say that students are doing no more learning with these technologies than they were 30 years ago, and that may be true. I don't think it is, but let's say it is. Even if it is true, these new learning tools and formats make learning so much cooler, and I think they prepare students for the world in which they live.
Digital Portfolios for Student Work
As students do more work online, there are more and more ways for students to create digital portfolios. And they definitely should. I still have analog portfolios in my classroom filled with old homeworks and projects, which is fine. I still believe there is something to a paper assignment, but what happens to that assignment at the end of the year? Will the students be diligent and save them forever? Probably not. But if they took pictures of their work, it could be saved forever. Google Classroom and Wikispaces are good places to house this work. Safety and privacy are concerns, especially in the larger scope of students having an online presence. But one huge takeaway that I thought was so cool was students using avatars as pseudonyms to protect their identity. So cool.
Beyond just storage, these digital portfolios are being used for so much more. They are becoming interactive portfolios. A big topic of discussion was whether digital portfolios should be a display for products or a documentation process and encouragement of student process and reflection. On the latter, students are annotating their work with screencasts, podcasts, and videos as part of a reflection and growth process. This use of digital portfolios feels like it's bursting at the seams, and there are so many things teachers can do. Time to start experimenting.
Can We and Should We Assess Character (non-cognitive skills)?
Jonathan E. Martin facilitated a very productive conversation on a topic I feel strongly about. Yes, we should assess character, which means we should be teaching and developing character. A lot of research out there supports this intention with findings that show certain character values correlate to "success" in any field or aspect of life. For clarification, "success" means generally feeling like your life has meaning and purpose no matter what you choose to do with it. One of my favorite books that I've read in the last few years is How Children Succeed, which details these character traits very well. And what these traits are may surprise you. Definitely worth the read.
There was a lot more opposition in this group than I expected. The dissenters would say who are we to say which character traits are important? What if they clash with other cultural values? How do we actually assess it? Although he didn't work for the company, Mr. Martin was advocating for a product called Mission Skills Assessment, which is a system that helps assess and track character, like a gradebook. But more questions and concerns came up. If we are assessing student character, do we give students a character grade? And if so, can we give an entire class or school a character grade? Can we then compare one school's character to another? It was a strange road to travel down for everyone involved in the conversation, but I still say 100% yes. All the rest are details to be worked out.
Teaching for Mastery and Grading for Mastery
A fellow NYC teacher at NYC iSchool and Math for America Master Teacher, Sarah Prendergast led a fantastic conversation on mastery teaching and grading. Sarah teaches high school algebra and prepares students for the New York State Regents Exam. And just like my teaching in School of One, Sarah uses a mastery model to teach. This is mastery teaching from her blurb:
"Mastery-Based Learning means breaking down a class into smaller, trackable topics and then tracking student progress on each topic. It's about seeing mastery as the most important goal, and providing students with ample opportunities to show what they know."
Not only does she teach for mastery, but she and her school grade for mastery, something I admit I don't do very well at all. 60-80% of students' grade is based on mastery. 10-30% productivity. 10% contributing factors, whatever those may be and it varies from teacher to teacher. I really struggle with mastery grading because my students work on different grade levels depending on their individualized learning path. My colleagues and I struggle with what to put on a report card for the 7th grade student who is doing very well in his work but is working on 5th grade skills. And what about another 7th grade student who is working on 8th grade skills? My report cards are not really equipped for this.
What I found fascinating and amazing is that by using a mastery tracking system and giving kids ample opportunities to master skills (instead of just moving on), Sarah can predict with almost perfect accuracy all of her students' regents exam scores. When I heard that, I thought to myself, "Isn't it amazing how well she knows her students?" Whether the student passes or doesn't pass any exam is never the most important thing to me, but the fact that she knows the students well enough to be able to predict it is outstanding. And she doesn't have any super fancy software. Just a really well-thought-out spreadsheet that has evolved into her own excellent tracking tool.
On a side note, she's also doing lots of other great stuff with Maker Education. Those of us who saw her present at MT^2, a TED style event put on by Math for America, were impressed. Check it out below.
If you are someone who is worried about the state of education or that teachers aren't that good or yada yada yada, go to EduCon next year and see what's happening. You'll feel much better. I owe a huge thanks to my principal, Ailene Mitchell and AP Peter Russo for sending me, my amazing colleague Emily Reisman for being a great learning partner there and in the classroom, and the folks at iZone NYC – Alana Laudone and Cynthia Warner for making it all possible for me.

Lau and The Ainslie/Henderson Trio: Reinventing the Reel
- Norman Chalmers
- 27 March 2008
Queen's Hall, Edinburgh, Thu 27 Mar; Tolbooth, Stirling, Fri 28 Mar; CCA, Glasgow, Thu 3 Apr
'The band started about two-and-a-half years ago,' says master fiddler Aidan O'Rourke. 'Martin (Green), Kris (Drever) and I were hanging around together and we discovered this new noise! Fiddle and accordion, with guitar can just be, well, folky – but when Martin boosted that bottom end!'
Melodic they are, but it's that organised dissonance within a big dynamic range that's the basis of Lau's sound. 'We've developed that to a larger scale. It is a dynamic show.'
The threesome are just back from London where they filmed for Channel 4 and appeared on Simon Mayo's Radio 2 show. They recently also won Best Band in Radio 2's Folk Music Awards, where Kris last year picked up prizes. Has the media exposure worked?
'Well, yes!' O'Rourke laughs. 'We've got 35 dates between now and 4 May. Then we're pretty flat out to the end of the year. We're doing the Canadian festivals in July. And going back to Canada and the States later. But yes, it's much easier now to get CDs into the bigger shops, and record deals. Agencies open up more.
'But remember,' he continues, 'we don't want to be working all the time. We've all got ongoing commitments, and differing lifestyles. I've got Blazin' Fiddles. Martin was touring with Joan Baez and now has a wee child. Kris goes off with Kate Rusby's band. So we have to be very organised.'
Support on the tour is from three of the most accomplished and adventurous young bloods on the scene, the bagpipes-driven trio of Ross Ainslie, Jarlath Henderson and Ali Hutton.
'They're in a similar space musically,' says O'Rourke. 'You know, beats missing, odd time signatures, bits of obscurity and strange tunes. We'll be all together at the end. But it'll be more of a finale, structured and arranged. We've spent time making it into a bigger band. It won't be that usual all-back-on-stage rammy.'
