Hi Ashley, 

I'm interested in joining. However, I'm still very new to this website and how I can participate...

Is there a link to the online discussion time or a reminder so I won't miss it?

I live in Taiwan (UTC +8) so I'm not sure what time it is for me? 

Thanks a lot!

I may join your session. i am very much in Technology in the classroom WITH the teacher monitoring. I believe that the blended approach is the best (technology + traditional approaches).
