Only two more weeks of class! Unbelievable. Where has the time gone?
No Ramblings again this week as you hone the drafts for your writing in your response groups. Use the response groups to help you bring your writing to the “finished” draft stage. Post your final draft on Monday April 20.
This week you will also begin writing the implementation paper, your last major assignment. This one page essay--approximately 400 words-- is simply a reflection on what you plan to do next year as a result of what you have been reading and writing in this class. Are there ways you can improve your teaching or assessment of writing? What have you learned about yourself as a writer? Have you learned more about any technology that you might find useful next year? Consider the text, readings, class discussions, assignments, and lessons shared by your classmates. I suggest you begin by a fastwrite/brainstorm “ Next year I will…” I am asking that you share that first draft or fastwrite of the implementation paper with your response group this week. Collaborate with your group in any way you wish.
The Implementation paper will be due after the class is finished any time before April 30. I must submit all grades to the University of Alaska on May 1.
