Reading Reaction #2

Hello There!
     Oops, I am sorry that I forgot to post this entry in order for you to write your reading reaction.   You can use one or two of the following triggers to write it:

  1. My initial reaction/impression to this article was…
  2. Something I want to remember from this article was…
  3. Something I learned from this article and that every teacher should know was…
  4. Something I learned  and that I immediately wanted to share with a colleague was…
  5. Some questions I still have are…

Remember you only need to react to the article and write your own impressions, rather than writing a summary from the reading.

    Reading Blog #1

    Hello There!
         As I was about to begin this new post, I was wondering which article you have selected as your first reading.   So as the articles may be different, it would be hard for me to ask specific questions.  For that reason, I decided to write some prompts that may help you write something about the article that you selected.  Write the title of the chapter/reading you selected, and feel free to use one or more of the prompts to write ideas about what you read.

    1. Select a part from your reading that you liked. What made you pick it? How does it make you pause and think?
    2. What are the two most important ideas from what you read?
    3. What has been the most interesting part of your reading?
    4. What is something you’ve learned from your reading?
    5. What was going through your mind as you read?
    Well, that's all for now.

    See you in class

    Welcome Message

    Today we start a new course, and I know that regarding technology, we always find ourselves in different places of the digital immigrant/digital native continuum.  There will be people who feel more comfortable using technology, and there will be others who are less comfortable.  It's OK, we are here for learning.

    So what would you like to learn?  What questions do you still have?  Don't be afraid to express your doubts or ideas.  Learning is a journey, and as teachers we are constantly learning.
