Practical Principals 23 – #EduconEnvy, Ten Things, and the iPad

We had some major audio problems in our recording so I had to do a lot of post-production to get it to sound “right.” Long-time listeners will notice something missing in the last second or two of the show…

Who are the Practical Principals?

ProfileMelinda Miller is an elementary school principal near Springfield, Missouri. She has been podcasting since May of 2007 and has conducted staff development training on podcasting for teachers in her district.

Scott Elias is a high school assistant principal in Northern Colorado. He met Melinda through their mutual infatuation with Getting Things Done and appeared as a guest on her podcast in July of 2007.

Scott and Melinda have been recording the Practical Principals podcast since the Fall of 2007 and hope to record many more episodes in the future. Read more about us on our "About" page. If you like what you hear, please visit us on iTunes and leave us some positive feedback!

As always, thanks for listening! Without you, it would just be the two of us talking to each other.

Practical Principals 22 – 22 Tools. 44 Minutes.

Delayed a week after we recorded it due to life and work getting in the way of editing and posting, Melinda and I are proud to present a geekier episode of PP where we talk about the 22 tech tools that help improve our work and personal lives.

Best of all? We get through all of them in less than 44 minutes.

Enjoy!

I’ve gone ahead and created a Twitter account for the Practical Principals. Go ahead and follow @principals and stay up-to-date with us!

It won’t be prolific or fill your Twinbox with spam, but it will update you when new episodes are released or when the blog is updated.

I look forward to Tweeting with you!

The Practical Principals on SEEDlings!

Melinda and I were invited to be on the LIVE! SEEDlings webcast this past Thursday. If you missed it (and why would you?), the show has been posted as a podcast and the audio is available here.

It was a great time (as you’ll hear!) and I look forward to doing it again!
