Refelective+Journal+for+Week+of+Nov.+3

Today I am trying to learn my way through this wiki sight. I am trying to do a wiki page. This will be the journal in which I will be talking about my thoughts while learning all of this new technology. I think setting up a wiki page was fairly easy. I think the students will be able to do it. I think the switching back and forth between the wiki site and the Google site was confusing, and would confuse the students. The video was a bit overwhelming with all of the statistics. While I think the 21st Century digital learner is an important topic. I would like to see us concentrate more on the skills and the importance of them to our students, and then learn about the statistics at a later time. I have to say not only was the video was overwhelming, but alot of the work we are doing is too! I think we should have some SLOW introductions into this new technology, then have ALOT of practice before we move on to a new skill.

Hi Lorna, I agree about the switching from google to wiki sites. I had the same feeling my first time through. I want you to know that you are not the only one who thinks there is a lot of work these first couple weeks. These worries have been relayed to ODE and eTech. However, you are doing a great job so far! Thank you for your thoughts. Teresa
