Greetings,
Welcome to the last month of the 2008 year. December can be a time of renewal and reflection for students with disabilities; for their teachers and for the writers in this hub, along with their managing editor. I want to thank each of you for you contributions to the Education Technology-Special Education hub. I also want to extend a special congratulations to the the top two writers for November 2008: Meetu and Victoria T. who will receive an Amazon gift certificate just in time for the holiday season.
In December, the contest goes on for the top writers posting >20 articles during the month. The articles must be of the highest writing quality, substance and relevancy to the December topics of "Technology for Teaching and Learning" (i.e legislation; technology tools; communication; instruction etc) and "Strategic Instruction in the Classroom" (i.e. Cognitive, metacognition, reciprocal teaching, strategic instruction model, self-regulated strategy development model etc). Of course, you are welcome to write on topics of interest, but for the December contest, at least 10 of your articles must be on the December topics.
Again thank you writers and happy holidays. I am working on getting new Contributing Editors on-board to work with the influx of your December articles, so your articles will be previewed and posted within 24 hours. Thank you all.....
Barbara
