    In this episode, Tom and Michael discuss BUSD's LMS, Haiku, and

    how they have made an open student portfolio page. It can be used
    to display student work to parents and others, and can be updated
    with work throughout the year. Now is a good time to get these
    pages set for next year.

    presentations to the class, colleagues or even on the web, much
    better than they have ever been.

    packing, purging and putting things into the cloud.
