EduCamp Colombia: Medellín (2007)

Hello, my name is Maria Patricia. Diego, I think you remember me. I would like to tell you that today some of my paradigms were changed. I always thought that Internet was a lonely exercise, and I'd say to my students: "Don't get on the Internet all the time because you get isolated from people". And today I learned that definitely this Internet 2 is a work of a community, it is a group work, and that has created many expectations for me. I would like to thank you for the opportunity of being here, and this organization that is very much your way: I love that it's so crazy, that we sit on the floor, I loved to walk around all the tables, to take with me this [badge] filled with learning. I had never learned so much in so little time. I thought that learning about blogs, about Flickr, which I didn't even know how to use; it was going to cost me much time and training, and even an impressive investment. And here I learned, I go out as an expert in many things I can't wait to get to my home and my office to start practicing everything, with the excitement of knowing that we can share everything we as teachers have to share in a way very, very... with a lot of, I do not know, with great excitement... the truth is now I'm out of words... Anyway, thank you very much. I loved today's exercise , it was wonderful. Thanks a lot!
