Final Project - due Monday, May 6

Greetings all - Happy Spring!

Please click here for instructions about your final project.  And email if you have any questions—it really is just a continuation of the work you've already been doing so is not difficult—just do it with care.  I should have feedback on your last project by the end of this weekend.   

I empathize with you in taking an on-line class.  It's frustrating for me as well to not be able to hold discussions, compliment or challenge you on your thinking, really engage in the issues present.  Since this is only a one credit class, the goal is to provide a framework for your personal, and trust me - ongoing, investigation into how media and technology shape the way we understand and teach, and ultimately 'know' what we know.  And your students will have a different framework than you do—subtle, but different.

On a very pragmatic note, your digging into the standards will help you land and keep a job.  On a more philosophical note, this class will hopefully keep a window open in your teaching strategies to a more critical and thoughtful use of technology and media in your content areas. 

Good luck.  I look forward to seeing your excellent work.
