I guess I should also comment on the class besides my video below. I thought this class offered a wide variety of experiences as well as a lot of freedom in what you choose to do (which I appreciate very much!) It allowed me to try a great project with my students that I might not have taken the time to develop otherwise. I feel the project was a great success and I will probably do it again next year. I thought that my students, for the most part, went far beyond my expectations with their creativity and overall success with the project.
I've also enjoyed the conversations with our "blog buddies" group. I think it's a great idea, and it really hasn't been too difficult to keep up with. In fact, I actually used a blogging component in my project for peer critique.
To wrap up, I'm excited about finishing up next semester (as are some of you!), and I hope everyone will have a relaxing and much needed break! Good luck for the rest of the school year!

I liked having the blog buddy groups, too! Your project was so neat. It was interesting to see what everyone came up with for their final project because we did have the freedom to really branch out.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the break and have a Happy Holiday!
P.S. Sorry Clemson couldn't get it together and beat Tech in the ACC championship. Ugh! Haha!
I also liked the freedom in the projects. It really allowed you to cater the project to your interests or classes you're already teaching :) You did a great job on your project, and I'm glad to hear you'll probably do it again! Enjoy your break!
ReplyDeleteYes, I also enjoyed the freedom in our class projects. It makes creating the project much less of a chore because you can develop it to fit your classroom.
ReplyDeleteGood luck finishing up next semester!
