What a great start for BaW2007, Daf.
BTW, Thanks for the two wonderful presents you left at my Motime blog. You caught me by surprise. Thanks a zillion.
Muchos éxitos, Berta

Thanks for teaching me about this new blog. I love learning about new tools.

Happy New Year 2007!

Hi, everyone.

I greatly look forward to what we can all learn from each other in the six weeks we'll spend together.

Very best wishes to all—

I have been looking forward to BaW07 since BaW06 ended! I plan to explore all the great stuff I didn't have time to investigate last time. :-)

It's a great opportunity to be part of the bau07 session which is run by the experts in internet tools. I can hardly wait when the session starts.
Thank you bau07 team for the great job you have been doing for everyone who is keen in internet implementation to classes.

I am really happy to see that you have already started using the blog!! It seems we are going to have another very active session :-) It is Jan 3, and we already have 109 participants ;-)

warm hugs,

Daf

Hi, everyone!
It's day 5 of registrations and we already have 127 members and 31 intros. Great, isn't it?
Cheryl, "motime" is the blog host that I've been using for a year with my students. I introduced it to Daf and she created her own blog at once. I like it a lot! And Howard replies to all our questions, problems or just plain help in no time. He's fabulous!!!
Hope you all benefit a lot from BaW07! I'm sure I will.
Enjoy!
Teresa

Hi everyone!!!
Hope we have a big success here at baw07.

I notice we are in good hands :)

Muchos saludos from Mexico

Hi, I have been visiting all the wonderful tools you provided and fighting to download the right size of my photo. Thanks a lot to all of you for your kind dedication to this GREAT work

Hi, Angeles (am I right?) and Ester!
I'm glad you think you're in good hands and that we're dedicated people. I believe the first is true and have no doubts about the second. We're all very dedicated. :-)
Hope we meet your expectations!

This is all a bit overwhelming for me right now, there are so many pages to keep track of.

I guess this is how my students feel sometimes!

Hi to all,
Liza from Maine, where it has been snowing, finally, but not enough for my kids to have a snow day. (They were VERY disappointed!)
I'm not sure how much I will be able to actively participate in Baw07 over the next few weeks but already I have had my eyes open to so many great tools. I can hardly believe it. The biggest challenge will be figuring out how to share all this with the teachers and students at my school. I can't wait!
I am now listening to the EVO launch from 1/14/07. It is really a wonderful mind expanding event. I love both the tech-side and the global community of people with a heart-felt purpose.

Bye for now (I'm off to try Vaestro),
Liza Moore

Dear Liza,

You are right the biggest challenge is getting your colleagues interested. For 5 years I have been trying to involve my colleagues at the university and it has been a difficult process. We are around 40 teachers in the department, and after all these years only 6 have become involved :-(
It is amazing that I have been more successful with teachers worldwide than with those who work with me f2f.
But I don't give up, because I see the motivation in my students, and how they are taking advantage of my blended courses, with the help of webheads around the globe :-)

Hugs,

Daf

Is there any way to join and become a webhead at this point in time? It reads like things have already been rolling.
