STATIC DYNAMIC
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Before taking the Principles of Distance Education class, I would say that I was about a 4 on the STATIC-DYNAMIC CONTINUUM. I have been working with educational technology for a long time, and I would have said that I thought this was good. After having taken this class, I am about an 8.5. I am still stuck to STATIC a little bit, but I am seeing the importance of providing and using DYNAMIC tools for the students to learn. I have also found that I must be knowledgeable and skilled at using any technology tool that I bring into my curriculum, and the students must also be adept at learning online and at a distance.

Hi Lewis,
ReplyDeleteYour concept map is full of innovations that I have never heard of, and I am really looking forward to learning more about them. I really need to step up my game and move in the direction of dynamic technologies. Great job and good luck with your final presentation!
Hi Lewis,
ReplyDeleteI like how you created you concept map. And the innovations you identified are very insightful. I have not used many of them. Can you tell me which ones would be best in primary grades? I would also agree with you about the use of static and dynamic technology. If it had not been for Walden I would have never tried to develop a wikipage or blog. I use other's blogs and wikipages for information, but I have never contributed to these technologies until these courses. I am glad that I have openned my mind to how I can use these technologies in education. I wish you luck with your continued growth.
