One of the educators I’ve come to admire in the last couple of months is Silvia Tolisano .  She is passionate about connecting students from around the world and using technology.  One thing that sets Silvia apart is what an amazing job she is doing at creating professional multimedia documents for educators.  I first encountered Tolisano’s work in the form of the following video (this is just a teaser…you can watch the full video here).

This video was presented at the k12 online conference and is one of many outstanding videos from that conference.  Tolisano has also written a free ebook on Digital Storytelling that can be downloaded here.  Additionally, she has made some really cool digital posters about using web 2.0 tools which can be downloaded here.  Tolisano is an inspiration for me, because not only is she deeply networked and connected, but she gives back so much to the educational community.  You can also check her blog at langwitches.org out which is rich with resources and has won numerous awards.
