Blog Assignment 13a:
Post a comment on your personal blog
in which you provide reaction to and suggestions for
improving/completing the draft version of the article you
will be reviewing for this week's reading assignment.
Blog Assignment 13b:
Post a comment on your personal blog in which you discuss
the following items:
Have the linked courses been beneficial to you and if so
how? If not, why not?
Have the digital photo/storytelling assignments been
worthwhile in helping you learn the technology skills
presented?
Have the digital photo/storytelling assignments been
worthwhile in helping you learn the popular culture content?
Do you think that the linked course pairing helped you
connect technical skills to content area knowledge? If so,
how and if not, what do you think did not work?
Would you be interested in taking other linked courses if
they were offered and would you recommend this pair of
linked courses to other students?
Is there anything else you can suggest that you feel would
improve the digital photography/storytelling half of the
linked course pair?
One option under consideration is to have a linked pair of
courses where the content area course would be offered as a
traditional 3 hour per week face-to-face course and the
digital photo/storytelling course would be offered online,
or mostly online. Please discuss your reaction to this idea
and provide any questions or comments you have on this
topic.
Do you have any other comments that you would like to add?
