I return to my office today. After so much growth over the last few days, I am not sure I will still fit into the same rut I have been in. On the first day of class I was hesitant to speak my thoughts by the end the excitement of discovery had overwhelmed my reserved mindset. I became excited by the concept that class does not end when the teacher walks out the door or the lesson is complete. I continues through wikis, blogs and reflection on class material.
I need to be on a committee or in a discussion group. I need to share my ideas !!!!!.....Know where I can find one?
I will be inquiring today about a college survival class. I need the text, the lesson plans suggested and permission to release this class in summer. If I do not get permission, I have been thinking that it might be fun to do the college math review online. Since Snow College has no ACT score requirements for admittance, there are a few students that do not reach our high level of math readiness. Math teachers need to review for up to three weeks before getting to the core of the curriculum. By that time they have lost many of the students. I would have an online tutorial/class that would cover those three weeks. I would use a lot of screen and video capture to make the class more interactive and less boring. I will probably do both eventually anyway it is so exciting.
This is maybe my last Blog for this class. I will be starting a new blog to record the progress of my project.
