An article, “Teaming up on Tech,” in yesterday’s Charleston Gazette, 05/21/2008, disscused the different efforts in our WV Educational system to promote learning. It’s exciting to see and hear the progress that happens within our state.
The article discussed a movement towards “student-centered” education with the “use of computer-based programs and Web sites.” Mark Moore with the Dept of Education’s Office of Instructional Technology is leading a seminar to teach the educators about the new movement. Hop on the website www.Thinkinfinity.org and check it out. Its is a useful tool for our teachers in this “student-centered” educational movement.
As a community, I’d like to see support for our educators and parents to promote this type of learning and progress the development of our students in WV!

I’m a little confused. The linked site in this piece is under-construction, forwarding visitors to an affiliate site, salvationnetwork.org — one of many online outlets for George H. Russell. Who is Russell? “George H. Russell, is founder of The Patriot Network, and author of its 35+ web sites located at http://www.patriotnetwork.org, as well as founder of The Universal Ethician Church, an interfaith ministry with a worldwide following via the church’s 275+ web sites located at http://www.salvationnetwork.org.” Again, I’m confused. Is this a link typo or does the Universal Ethician Church now have a part in planning and training for education in West Virginia?
Hey Lisa…sorry about that I posted the correct link. It is http://www.Thinkfinity.org. Thanks for following the post and calling me out on my spelling error. 🙂 Josie
