Course Completed . . . Learning Continues January 9, 2010

I have decided that even though the 23 Things course is completed, I want to continue to use my Ideations blog to record and react to new learning.  I have found that by reading other people's blogs, even informally, I can learn a great deal. 

I will be embarking a new learning this week by co-facilitating the SMART Goals Online Book Study around Ken O'Connor's book:  A Repair Kit for Grading:  15 Fixes for Broken Grades.  I love the message sent through this book and look forward to the difficult conversations we will have around the content of the book.  Not that I like difficult conversations, rather I am excited that teachers are finally asking to open the dialogue about the important transformational changes in grading practices that need to be taking place in schools across the country.  Through this experience, I am sure I will learn what to do and what not to do when teaching an online course. 

I am also excited to share a blog that I will be following.  This blog is written by my daughter.  I look forward to reading her blog as she spreads her love of cultures one blog at a time.  Her blog can be found at http://culturecoffeeandcouture.blogspot.com/ .  Here is to learning from one another.
