A couple of TPACK related updates.
First, the outdated tpck.org has been replaced by the more up-to-date and more appropriate TPACK.org. [The tpck.org site hasn’t really gone away, but we plan to phase it out over time].
Second, we keep getting requests for the TPCK image (below). A new and updated high-resolution version of the image can be now downloaded from tpack.org or directly from here.
Third, just in case you missed it, the first TPACK newsletter is now available here.

How can anybody resist this flowchart / visual representation of Hey Jude! Check it out. Don't you just hear the song as you move through the boxes and arrows.
This has been a day of sad news from Stanford University. I blogged about the passing away of Dr. Nalini Ambady (see blog post here). I will digress a bit before I describe the second piece of news because the connection to me (and my work) is much more salient. Back...
