Annabel Barbasz

Annabel Recreant

  • About Annabel: Annabel has been a classroom teacher for about ten years and now supports teachers and students in their learning of history. You will never hear Annabel say that she is “trying to make history come alive” – to do as such assumes that it is already dead! Apart form long walks on the beach and the occasional mini-break, Annabel does enjoy practising Iyengar Yoga and singing – she will even do it for free these days.

  • Projects: After a long period of initiation, I have finally decided to use my space on Jokaydia to document my work on promoting historical literacy through Virtual Worlds such as Second Life. Eventually, I would like to use the Jokaydia space as a place for the development of resources that can be of use to students in a school setting. Additional Info: She does like pink so… yeah.

Henny Zimer

  • RL Name: Jeff Agamenoni
  • About Jeff: I am a middle school mathematics instructor living in the big sky country. I am a lifelong learner and lover of emerging technologies. I have a beautiful wife and two wonderful sons. I think the applications found in environments like Blogs, Wikispaces, Social Networks and read/write web tools have changed the way we need to teach our students. We need to catch up to many of our students because they are leaps and bounds ahead of us with regards to technology. I started this blog because I want to be a better teacher; I continue to blog because it has made and is making me a better learner. I love to LEARN…It is like very good chocolate to me.
