Hi everyone, thanks for all your contributions to our class this week on technology enabled place-based learning. I feel so lucky that we had a nice day and were able to get outside to breathe the fresh air, discuss opportunities for outdoor education, and consider how technology might play a role in representing students learning on the land. Kristen was really excited about this opportunity and thanks you all for your questions and feedback. Kirsten also joined our MatterMost community should you want to follow up with her or connect.

I updated the schedule on the website with plans for the next few weeks. I’m currently working with an organization called BCEdAccess for a guest talk about accessible technology and how you might advocate for learners in the classroom. I will update you when I have the exact date for the session.

I have contacted Rich to gather the resources from last week. I will add them to the website once I have them!

To do list for this week

  • Post an update for your free inquiry project.
  • Create a weekly reflection blog post curating resources and ideas of interest from this week’s class.
  • Connect with your Learning Pod weekly to discuss the course resources, review each other’s blogs, and support each other.
  • As we move into November, you should be planning your Educational Technology Presentation. Talk to your group to determine what format you would like to use, start conducting the research and planning, and connect with my if you have any questions.
