About Me - Joseph Papaleo

Husband, father, learner, teacher - in that order.

Husband for 12 years, father of four great kids, always learning and I teach passionately.

I am fortunate that I teach in a wonderful school in Melbourne, Australia. This is my fifth school I have taught in and each school has allowed me to develop my own ideas in how technology can be used in the classroom. What was appropriate many years ago is no longer appropriate now, so my thoughts are constantly evolving.

Our world is also evolving in many ways. Technology has changed the way people do things. And now with Web 2.0 technology, I keep asking myself “Is Education keeping up with technology?� Perhaps I’m wrong to even contemplate this question, but I don't think so. I know many others think it is a "gimmick", but I strongly disagree.

This podcast site will focus on how I envisage I can use podcasts, videocasts and screencasts in my clasroom and also how others may use it.

I hope to learn more and bring these discoverieis into my classroom. Join me.
