Blog Entry Due on 6/15

I feel that I have gotten better at using some of the technology for this course, but still feel like I could be more on the ball in terms of figuring out when I have to post things and where. It is helpful to have skype or over the phone discussions about the lessons that my partner and I have been developing because the immediate feedback really helps much more that waiting for comments, which adds more to the lists of things that one has to remember to check up on. It also creates an immediate understanding of what I have to improve and starts me on my way towards doing so without any anxious wait time. I especially appreciated the recent feedback my partner and I received on our unit plan (section IV) because it was so clear after our telephone discussion, that we did not fully explore the ideas that we had wanted to get across in our lesson. For next week I would like to be able to work on making sure our lessons are more clearly written up and that I make sure to send them properly, unlike I did this week. I think that commenting/receiving comments from peers on mybankstreet has truly made this class feel collaborative and more like a community. Therefore, I will make an effort to have my commentary as specific as possible.
