Instuctional Design Update

I am beginning this by saying I have not blogged, so this entry will get all up to speed, myself included. I am developing an inservice to teach teachers of hirschi the new unit planner, I have finished module 1, (too easy). I am revamping module based on input form Janice Swartz, our MYP coordinator , to include all as aspects of the uinit questions, instead of just the Area of Interaction, I think it will work fine.

Wiki!

Wikis are a great place for teachers and students to collaborate in a an interactive learning context. It allows for guided or free flowing exchange of ideas in a non traditional educational setting. The ease od use allows for the tech-fearful to adjust easily as it is simalar to word processing or as complicated as the tech-savvy need it to be. I will be using wikis in the classroom and as an avenue for teacher training.
