Well, I took a break from my blog as soon as the class ended. I even left my computer at school for the remainder of the week. We were also in the middle of report cards and conferences so I really didn’t have much time to spend on the computer. The timing could not have been more perfect. I’ll be getting ready this weekend to give a workshop on Voicethread on our staff meeting day. We’ve delayed the presentation of the wiki until we get all teacher computers updated with the latest version of Adobe Flash. That probably won’t happen until next year. Remember, we spoke of barriers, well here is one I’m sure everyone has experienced at one time or another. It sure takes time to get things rolling!
I start my next grad class in May and the class will explore Program Evaluation. I will use my blog to forward any important information.
Thanks for your kind comments regarding my final projects.

I’ve created a Voicethread for my final reflections. It’s about ten minutes in length. It’s been great working with all you. I hope to continue our professional relationship and discussions. Good luck to those who still have work to do and congratulations to all of you who have successfully completed their Masters. A special thanks to Alec, Rob, Kyle and Cindy who have helped me overcome several obstacles/barriers. Actually, everyone contributed to my progress in this class and for that I am thankful. Enjoy the beautiful weather start planning for the summer months to come.

Today, I went to my course blog to see if there had been any activity and to my surprise there were four posts waiting to be moderated. I am so pleased. The posts were quite short and needed some work but the important thing is that I’ve got students writing!! Most students at my school struggle with reading and writing and do not like to do either. They were writing on a Sunday afternoon, their free time. Like, it’s school work!!! For my students in grade 11 and 12 part of their projects require that they complete ten journal entries between now and May 9th. I know I have included several times the link to our course blog but go ahead and take another look if your interested.
