Final Day - Final Thoughts

What is the top concept or most relevant piece of information you are taking away from this week of class or online class discussions? Will anything you have learned this week, change your classroom and if so, what? Explain your thoughts on technology integration and how you plan to incorporate it into your classroom or learning environment.
Have a good remaining summer and feel free to contact Joanne and I if you have questions after class is out.
Thanks for a wonderful learning environment and have a restful remainder of the summer.

I have learned so much in the last few days and am very excited about all that I've gotten into place already. It was great to have the time to set up the things I want to get into place. I have lots to do over the next two weeks to get things going with teachers and paraeducators. Thanks for all the information and I've learned a lot from others in the class. Thanks to Eric for fielding my constant annoying questions.

Joann and Lisa,
The set up of the class schedule was tremendously effective. If it were 5 days in a row, I would have been burned out and unable to continue to stay focused. One of the best parts of this call was that I was able to participate in peer teaching. People around me were happy to share their knowledge and expertise...which is what I need- Immediate feedback as I hit roadblocks. I am going into this year with more confidence to try a few things that will help both me and my students!

Monday - Day 4

Well, I can't believe that we only have one more day of class. Please share how the format the class has been for you? Has there been the right amount of instruction and time to work on your project? Do you feel you have had enough time to develop your project. How did the Wed-Th-Fri-Mon-Tue format work for you? Would you suggest keeping this type of schedule? Any other comments.... Thanks - Joanne and Lisa
