Move around / OK GO Video Link
// August 15th, 2010 // 1 Comment » // Comments
Summer has ended as far as work goes and I was lucky enough to be up to speed when it came to be back in school. Actually i was ready for work, because I feel it has value. Being educators we are asked to do valuable work everyday and that usually involves motion. I was in motion this summer by attending a conference, by reading, by unplugging and decompressing the past year of teaching, and by moving back into a house. The conference was ISTE 2010 and it was in Denver. I got to see some cool speakers and not only saw some of my tweeps, but added to my PLN. (I heard Marzano talk about his research, and I also heard Alan November speak— I recommend everyone checking out these educators). What I discovered, and what is pushing me back to writing is the need for reflection and the continued motion of my learning in that direction. When i was lucky enough to be around some great teachers at the beginning of this PLN process, and when this site got started i was unaware of how much it would transform my learning and how much it continues to impact my teaching. My blogging, is something that is an accelerant for learning. In my motion this year I want to continue with the motion of reflection in this digital way. I hope all of our listeners and subscribers (who i really want to thank) continue their motion in positive ways that provide growth for all that they need and all those they touch.
In that sense, and the reality that summer is over I wish you all a good year and want you to all watch this motion based video to help you say goodbye to summer but also inspire you to continue motion for your year.
