weekly thoughts I

I apologize that my submission is late.

a. What was the most significant thing you learned in class this week?

I began to think in a bigger way about the significance of digital media for education. I realized that there is a lot to think about on this subject, and that I would probably find this class more stimulating than I expected.

b. What questions do you have and what do you want to learn more about?

I worry a lot about students getting distracted by devices in the classroom. How does a teacher engage students at the digital level, but also at the person-to-person, conversational level that is (imo) the foundation of genuine learning in the classroom?

c. What applications do you see to classroom practice based on what you learned?

I can easily imagine using a wiki with my students, or an online forum where we can discuss math issues.
