Found this today. http://www.speakout.alberta.ca/ Alberta Ed "Speak Out" website invites students to be interactive with blogs/forums. Follow "Council" link and minister wants applications for Student as Advisors from 22 "zones". Fine print: "As your rank grows from Newbie to Member to Advanced Member with your posts, our Speak Out Team will add it all up and use it towards your Conference and/or Council applications." IB students from Harry Ainly got the jump it appears. Grumble, grumble. We need to give away more XBOX games during school survey time, too, I figure. Register for Speak Out and engage. After registering, contribute to this month's featured discussion on "Using Technology to Learn."
