Click on the link for this site from the “External Links” and it will open in a new window.
Welcome and introductions. Pick a partner and conduct an interview using the questions on your worksheet.
Digital photos taken of everyone :-) Take turns with the camera and sign the photo sheet in the order you have taken your picture. Take 2 pictures of each person just to be safe (head and shoulders only-closeup). These interviews and photos will be displayed on our class bulletin board to help all of us get to know each other better and to match names with faces. I will attach our photos to this Course Assignment section on TaskStream (at the bottom where the interview form is attached). Download your photo and the interview form. Insert the photo into the interview form and send the document to me as an email attachment through the Message Center on TaskStream by January 23. Show me your best technology skills. :-)
Introduce your partner using the information from the interview sheet.
Introduction of hybrid course—show ppt of hybrid explanation.
Overview of BlackBoard and TaskStream. Review of textbook, Sadker CD and Online Learning center that accompanies text.
Confirm ability to login to myASU with ASURITE ID.
Confirm ability to log in to TaskStream.
Discussion of course syllabus and general course description.
Brainstorm course expectations based on course overview at your tables: Where are the gaps for you as you think about the “big picture” in schools today? What do you really want to leave this class knowing more about?
Overview of Course Assignments
Pre-announcement of assignment to attend a District Governing Board meeting or another site based-decision making meeting sometime prior to March 27. See details on Mar. 6 assignments.
Explanation of online assignments for the next two weeks.
Homework:
Explore the Sadker site and CD to become familiar with what is there...
Complete the “Scoping School Culture”
Complete the “Staff Room Observation”
Please bring the above assignments to next class (Jan. 30) . Handwritten responses are fine or, if it's easier for you, it's fine to type your responses right onto the form that you download from this site.
Here you go. :-) What an awesome group!! (If you're unsure of anyone's name, just move your mouse over the picture and you will see the name.) It's a great way for me to "test" myself to see if I can remember the name without looking. :-)
Below the photos you will find several links to websites that have great collections of educational and inspirational quotations. Maybe you'll find a new favorite quotation or be reminded of some old favorites. These are good sites to bookmark because you may want to use some of these on your Showcase ePortfolio in your student teaching Capstone course.
