Canadian E-Learning Conference June 17-20 2008

Saturday night

Getting ready for this workshop has been a journey in itself -- with an exponential learning curve that has flown off the top of the graph. Here's where we think we'll be on Tuesday. 

I. Opening: introduction to who we are, where we teach, and our model of engagement

II. Our cause: why we have embarked on this journey -- what we hope to accomplish with our students

III. Show and tell: our model of blended learning with examples of programs and resources we use to make lessons more engaging to students; what kind of a difference has this made?

The Earth Day project has gotten a second wind. We are now endeavouring to get it ready to be entered in the SD36 district student film festival -- called Montage. The team is very excited about having their work on view this way. We're doing a bit of an Oscar-style dinner for them before hand and then we'll meet up with their families at the event.
