Prompt #1: Course Evaluation
I
covet your feedback on this course as it will help me know how well it served
you, and how I might make it better for future classes. Information has been forwarded to your
Wayland email accounts and Blackboard regarding course evaluations. You will find a link to evaluate each of your
courses in the Tools box in Blackboard.
Please
go there right now and provide an evaluation of this course. (By the way, I
can’t see what you’ve put in there until after the term is closed, so your assessment/comments won’t have any impact on your grade).
Respond
with “Done!” in the blog comment box when you have completed the evaluation.
Prompt #2: Alonzo on Innovation, Passion, and Purpose
Teacher Amy Alonzo of
Lynnbrook High School has created a unique learning environment that has consistently
tapped her students’ creativity.
Describe a learning task that
you might craft within your content area that would capture the elements of
innovation that Alonzo references.
Prompt #3: Hashtag Goldmine
If
don’t already have a Twitter account, go to Twitter.com and set up a free
account for yourself right now.
Now
that you are on Twitter, please know that there are groups of people who share
your interests and passions that form “communities” on Twitter by use of a
convention called HASHTAGS.
For
instance, if you type #publicspeaking into the Search window (at the topic of
the Twitter page), you will be taken to a list of posts that have been submitted
by folks who have an interest in public speaking.
Now
go to this resource page:
Look into three
different hashtag discussions (any three you like) that have been posted by
other educators.
In your response to this
prompt, comment on all three.
