Week 2

I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.

The directive this week was to create an Avatar and to register with CALIBK12. First, CALIB received my request to join, but the links to verify my e-mail didn’t work right away. I had to resubmit my request three times. Second, the Avatar task was fun. I remember not too long ago when my waistline looked like my Avatar’s. I believe I can get it back (probably after I finish my TL credential and have more time to exercise - LOL)!

I learned, or better yet, remembered, that the more we learn, the more we know about what we don’t know. Technology is ever evolving and although fun, keeping up takes work, time and resources (should I say money?)!

I plan to create a Blog for the English Department where students can do book reviews. Although teachers will love the idea, I think there won’t be as much enthusiasm until our school has more digital resources. Until then, I will encourage my staff to continue to grow and learn so that they are prepared for the future.
