The power of possibility…

The power of possibility the only kind of power that matters. The power of the status quo no longer is a value because it can no longer provide kind of security it once did.

I bought a house today!

This post doesn’t have a whole lot to do with educational technology, but I really had to let everyone who might care to know that my family is moving into a new house. It is our absolute dream home.

I have toyed with the idea of putting up the video tour that I did in order to show my parents, but I’m not totally sure that anyone that reads my blog casually really needs that kind of a detailed view of where my children sleep. If you truly would like to have that kind of voyeurism in your life, send me a direct message on Twitter.

For now, though, just know that I am happy with our decision, and that I cant wait to move in.

Whenever I feel like…

Whenever I feel like I’ve run into a wall in online school I start thinking about all the possibilities for communicating and things just seems to open up. Long story short I am looking for a way to use google ups as a domain as internal communication system that we can slowly open up with the wider world more buying from IT and the stakeholders.

Connecting is the hardest…

Connecting is the hardest thing to do in learning. If you don’t believe me, ask a student how many times they have received meaningful feedback today. Ask a teacher how many parents know exactly what goes on in their classes. I want to do this connection every single day and I’m setting up ways to do so. I’m very excited about them, but I was out buying a house today, so I will be blogging about them soon. I guess stay tuned.

Head on over to…

Head on over to Kevin Honeycutt’s driving questions podcast at http://kevinhoneycutt.org/ and click on the driving questions podcast. I had a great conversation with him this morning about change in schools and ways to create instant and always on collaboration. I will be posting my audio and notes from the conversation but his is already up because he is much more diligent at getting things online.

I’m holding my son right now and talking to my WordPress blog and I am considering whether or not this is going to be a great way for me to start blogging regularly again and thinking a lot of different things in order to get my mind out there and produce something.

Guest Teaching 10.29.08

Cores 1+4:

1. Write-on: 
2. How can we decipher the symbolism of Maus 2, extracting more meaning from only the images?
3. Frame analysis:

• Describe- Describe the frame in detail. Make sure you find even the smallest pieces of information that are hiding within the illustration.
• Explain- Explain the meaning of each of the objects and details in this frame. What do these things symbolize or represent? Why does the author use this image instead of another one? What message is the author trying to convey through this frame?
• Expand- Show how this frame and its different meanings relate to the rest of the book or to your own life.
• • Example 1
  • Example 2

4. Use Photo Booth to take a picture of the frame you would like to analyze.
5. Annotate the photo with description, explanation, and expansion using preview (after you have converted it to a PDF)
6. Go to Slideshare.net and upload your file… Make sure that you tag it with maus2.
7. Look at our greatness.

Cores 2+3:

1. Write-on:
2. Using a backchannel to discuss and ask questions about Animal Farm (While we read).
3. Text animalfarm and then your question or comment to 41411.
4. I also need a google jockey to get images that help to express what is going on in Animal Farm.
5. Read Chapters 9 and 10 of Animal Farm.

The Ripe Environment: Connecting more than two dots.

There is a severe lack of time in the air. It pervaides every conversation I hear on many days:

“No, I don’t have time for that collaboration right now. Maybe after this quarter is over.”
“Are you sure that it has to be due tomorrow. I really think that having the weekend when I don’t have games or practices or school would make more sense.”
“I don’t even have time to think.”

Hyperbole aside, this lacking is palpable. I think it is one of the only times that a lack of something can be more heavily felt and deeply understood than the presence of it. Many people, though, have just gotten used to having no time to connect the disparate parts of their working or waking lives. It has become the film upon our skin that always coats our interactions but can’t be rubbed or cleaned off.

I am not one of those people, however. I believe that connecting the dots and creating time for that process is possible. I believe that it is all about creating a Workflow of Passion (requires a better name, but that’s all I’ve got).

When I say passion, I do not mean that you must be equally in love with every assignment or task that you come across. Instead, I mean that there is something meaningful within each thing that you do. There is some meat there, no matter how hidden it may be in the luke-warm soup of “other stuff.” The only way to craft the time to connect that meat to something else equally meaty is to plunge your spoon in and not be satisfied with the carrot or water chestnut you come up with the first time. (I would like to apologize to both the literary crowd who sees the metaphor being stretched thin and the vegetarian crowd who beleives that no one should be looking for meat within a vegetarian soup.)

So, what does this spoon plunging action look like. Well, I have recently taken to a maxim for resolving the issue of time suckage and distraction in the classroom and out.

“Use the tool that has everything you want, and nothing you don’t.”

Although the different image settings in Photo Booth are cool, the distraction factor is so high that it is nearly impossible to use it as an instructional tool (for kids or adults).

Wikipedia provides a cornocopia of educational resources, but blind searches are still stabs in the soup that lead to less than appetizing results.

The Ripe Environment is anywhere that makes information clickable, that sets the path of least resistance to learning as the norm. The Ripe Environment is a place that doesn’t waste time on stuff that doesn’t matter. It is a place that the workflow always works for the user, according to their needs and passions.

Mini Del.icio.us PD

Although this is not my regular mode of blog posts, I have found that it provides an outlet for the PD that would normally just be within a given context, but that other people might find useful. I created these images for eDCSD, the Online School for Douglas County. Feel free to peruse it and use the information, but do not use the login information if you are not a part of eDCSD.
