Well okay, we have reached the final weekend of our whirlwind tour of technology tools for teaching (couldn't help the alliteration). Everyone still seems to be breathing. . .or at least is faking it very well :^D
I have graded everything submitted. I said we would wait until tonight to finish the iMovie software checklists as well as the emerging technology checklist. Both will be checked by a peer and then submitted to me for your grade. If you have lost a checklist, please bring a fresh copy to class.
TaskStream: Mark Rounds came over this morning and we discussed your narratives. As of about 9am, only Peter, Carrie, Kim, Liz, and Mark had written their narratives or shared with him on GoogleDocs. In discussing the editing aspect of his work, he has requested that EVERYONE (except Mark), create a GoogleDoc to share with him, mrounds5@gmail.com, and put your narratives there first. This makes it a whole lot easier to give you feedback in the text of your writing. He is also creating a good sample narrative list from current 422 student narratives he has read. This should be ready by Friday evening. You will have until Saturday evening to submit the draft narratives for NETS III-V.
This weekend: we will go over the iMovie & Emerging Technology Checklists. You will need to have a peer view and initial your checklist, then you will submit them to me. Once that is finished you may work on your TaskStream narratives. If you are finished with your narratives and your checklists this evening (AND I HAVE PHYSICALLY SEEN THEM IN GOOGLEDOCS AND ON TASKSTREAM), you will not be required to attend class tomorrow. You will receive feedback from Mark by Monday. The final narratives will be due on TaskStream by Wed.
