With this post, it’s time to say goodbye to the Cohort 6 Ed.S. students and bid hello to the Cohort 7 Ed.S. students.
I am so proud of Cohort 6 Ed.S. people. Never has the entire group graduated en masse. I hope you guys will hang around just a little longer on this blog – and indefinitely if you like. You may have comments, etc. – but more important, I will probably think of a few more things that I forgot to tell you.
The final Applied Projects from Cohort 6 are indexed on the Portfolio Page (scroll down). Cohort 7: bookmark this page. These are great examples for you to follow throughout the Applied Project (AP) process.
Now a few notes for the “newbies” of C7 (EDIT 7320):
- Class will meet on May 31 at the old GUC, A1920, 9am. More announcements to follow.
- I’m not aware of any lunch plans made so far. If no one wants to head this up, then brown bags will be the order of the day. This will be a smaller group, which could be either good or bad for covered dishes. Pizza is always an option …
- I published the preliminary syllabus around May 8. If you’re anxious, you can see the Evolving Syllabus here. I did make some changes to the assignment list. A big priority for the next few days is getting these written – Backwards Planning and all of that.
- The best thing you can be doing for the moment is reading the Farmer textbook.
- The next best thing you can be doing is daydreaming and brainstorming about some sort of project idea. Browsing through past projects, thinking about problems you’ve observed … these are good ways. You’re not expected to have The Idea on Day 1 of class, but the quicker you can settle on an area, the better. Any SLM topic or educational problem is fair game, almost.
- I’ll install an RSS link and an email subscription form soon. Check every few days until you see that.
I don’t mind heading up lunch planning if we do decide to do potluck…how many are in our group?
