Week 3 of EDLD 5305 Disruptive Innovation lived up to its name but in a very good and necessary way. Through several conversations and emails, I was able to gain a new perspective on my approach to implementing blended learning technology. I learned that my frustration and general angst over teacher apathy to technology implementation was hurting my plan and putting my ideas in a negative space from the beginning. A quick gut check to remember "why" I became a teacher led to a long but purposeful revision of my plan. Perhaps the best advice I received this week came in the form of a quote. "If we teach today's students as we taught yesterdays, we rob them of tomorrow." --- Dewey If my plan gives just one student access to all of their tomorrows, then I know I have served my purpose as a teacher and learner. |
