Do you want to get some perspective on that thought?Well, Dr. Scott McLeod and Karl Fish have created a presentation that will show you how connected we are because of the Internet.
If you are at school, you will not be able to see this because it is hosted on You Tube - please watch it from a non-filtered internet connection.
This presentation can be scary if you let it, but it can also be exciting. We teachers have the potential to educate people we will never meet. We teachers can also pull in great lesson plans and web resources into our own teaching because the web makes it so easy.
In this trail, you are going to contribute to that learning community. by helping me curricularize web resources - from a New York State perspective at least - by bookmarking these resources using del.icio.us and sharing your thoughts about how to teach with them on a Google Site. The resources you bookmark will be organized on my web site using dynamic del.icio.us links (this means that the web resource list will grow as you bookmark more sites).
I will reorganize this pool of resources according to New York State Standard and Performance indicators.
You will be able to access these organized resources when you leave the course and share them with your colleagues at school.
So, let's get started by thinking about these questions:
- How do you share ideas, not necessarily web resources, with your colleagues now?
- How do you share web resources?
- How do you feel about being part of a world-wide learning community? What responsibility do you feel you have to your class, your colleagues in your school, your colleagues in the profession and students all over the world?
You can respond to any of the above by posting a comment. If you have any questions, please post a comment to this post. I will reply back - you can post anonymously or with a Nom de plume.
