Finally back on!

Ok,  I feel kind of stupid.  I haven't been posting for a while now because I was having trouble logging onto the blog.  All I had to do was reset my browser.  Well, I'm back on now.  We sent in our first progress reports in yesterday.  I saw Abbey's after I had already sent mine.  She did such a good job on the student progress reports.  Mine were so plain and hers were so descriptive.  I'll have to do better next time.

On other news, our school got Flash this week.  Unfortunately, I still don't have a working license on my MacBook.  I'll have to get that figured out soon.

Glad to be posting again...

Class 9/10/08

Today the students continued the play to learn lesson. We had 4 students present their game reviews to the class. We'll have to continue this lesson for one more day. We will be finishing up the review presentations, linking to our game review pages, linking to our blogs, and set up RSS feeds. I'll have to be sure to remember how to do all of this.

I did set up game review pages for each of the students. We will have them watch the tutorial to set up the links as part of class on Friday.

Everything is still going very well!

Third Day of Class

Today is the third meeting we have had with our Globaloria Class. Last class we got all of our students signed up with wiki and blog accounts. The students set up their personal wikis and chose avatars. They also published their first blog post. Daniel Workman put up a little fight about having to post on a blog, but he did it. I think the class is going very well so far.

Today, the students are doing game evaluations using the rubric we received at the Globaloria Workshop in August.

Mrs. Franks and I are moving into our roles fairly smoothly. Hopefully, things will keep working out.
