O.K. Maybe there are only five visitors to Teach Effectively! At least, that’s the total number of votes on the current pole about roles. So, I’m moving the voting booth over here…putting it in plain sight.

For a long time I had no problems with spammers who ran scripts that sign-up bogus users for my blogs. But recently, there’s been a spate of them. Yesterday, I eliminated these accounts:
ID #51: barsikjak, ID #52: barsikjal, ID #55: beepbeek, ID #54: beepbeet, ID #58: derisgun, ID #50: barsikjan, ID #48: chuchundra, ID #49: chuchundrra, ID #44: Delmarbbq, ID #47: goorooro, ID #42: JacomoR, ID #46: ritalinB, ID #63: bortycuz, ID #60: gortusbig, ID #61: grofvuri, ID #59: trusaerus,
I also activated a software resource (“plug-in”) that will trap most of them at the time of requesting an account, so I shouldn’t have to hassle as much with this.
Anyone else seen an increase in such activity recently?
Sphere: Related ContentFolks, I don’t use a fancy stats package and, even if I did, I’d only have a passing idea of who visits Teach Effectively. So, I’m running a poll for the next week or so in which I’m asksing visitors to indicate their connection to education in general and Teach Effectively specifically. Please click on the page marked “polls” and explain yourselves (both of you, please).

Please discard that old subscription and set your aggregator to grab the feed from the here.

It took me a lot longer than I’d anticipated to get the blogs functioning again, but I believe that Teach Effectively is now ensconsed in its own little home. There are, to be sure, a few remaining bits of packing material and similar remnants of the move lying about the space, and I’ll be working on tidying them. However, I think that the posts, comments, images, and etc. are working properly now.
It will take the search engines and tag systems a bit to refresh their records about Teach Effectively, so I shan’t expect Google entries or Technorati tags to be up to date for a few days or weeks. However, readers (both of you, please) can help by updating any Web links you have to TE; here’s the code to use:
<a href="http://TeachEffectively.com/">TeachEffectively.com</a>
Teach Effectively!, which has been housed on my U.Va.-issue server since its inception, will soon move to it’s formal location at http://TeachEffectively.com. If you have a link or bookmark to it that has johnl.edschool in it, please update it.
I hope to take steps that will capture mistaken requests and reroute them to the correct location, but I am not expert enough to ensure that these steps will work. So a little human intervention is likely to be needed. Thanks.

Teach Effectively is joining Sheryl’s promotion of National De-lurking Week on Paper Napkin. I’m looking for a place to put this image in the navigation elements at the right (maybe with a countdown timer). Please provide suggestions about locating it by leaving a comments on this post [teehee].
I’m pleased to note that Janet Lerner was willing to post a piece to Teach Effectively. As most people in special education know, Professor Lerner is a pioneer in teaching students with disabilities. In one of my first classes about special education, I was assigned Professor Lerner’s book on Learning Disabilities. It’s a great honor to have her as a contributor to Teach Effectively. Professor Lerner will be posting as “JanetL.”
