How am I going to do this?
I have posted 3 days in a row now which is a new record for me. my habit would be to start a blog, post and then forget about it. I have continued to read Will Richardson’s book on blogging. Yesterday I started the section on Wikis and I was a little confused.
This morning I was talking to my student teacher who was demonstrating a new method of longterm planning. Much of it reminds me of the Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, begin with the end in mind. We downloaded a year by the month template from the “MS/Office”site. Next we filled in my vacation and conference days. What was left over scared me. I don’t know how I am going to cover Word, Excel, PowerPoint, introduce Mac OS Tiger, (We are a dual platform lab) and then finally fit in blogging, Furl, and aggregators. This is a semester long course, so I have basically have less than 5 months to cover all this material.
Calgon take me away! I want to be a great computer teacher. I want to walk out of that lab with my kids running to the Library lab because they want to do more on their own. I just don’t know how to get it all done.
Well once I finish my longterm planning I will post it so anyone else may be able to make use of it. Hopefully using this template will help me to find a way to get it all in.
