GAME Plan Week 6

My original goals for my GAME plan were 1.) to promote student reflection using collaborative tools to reveal and clarify students’ conceptual understanding and thinking, planning, and creative processes, and 2.) to model collaborative knowledge construction by engaging in learning with students, colleagues, and others in face-to-face and virtual environments.

This week we have learned about social networking sites and how they can be used to enhance student learning as well as to motivate and engage students in learning content. These sites are wonderful online collaboration tools for students to utilize for communicating with their peers, experts, teachers, and a variety of other people. These sites will certainly help me with my goals.
I have not started setting new goals, nor have I extended the goals that I already have. I have been busy searching for teaching positions in my content area. This is my first time on unemployment and it is a humbling experience. It is also a lot of work!!!!!!

  2. Good Luck Lynn.

    They do seem like really useful tools, but it's obvious what your priorities must be.
