january 16

JOURNAL TOPIC:
There is a famous story about the inventor Thomas Edison where one of his assistants gets frustrated.  "Mr. Edison, we've tried this a thousand ways and it doesn't work!"  Edison smiled.  "You've actually accomplished quite a lot," he said.  "We've discovered a thousand ways it doesn't work."

Describe something we did in this class last semester that didn't work.  Then-- and this is the important part-- describe what you learned about yourself, me, learning, and/or this class as a result.

AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. ESSAY EXAM
3. Let's build something!  At the end of last semester we agreed to build something that people could play/use/read by the end of the semester.  That project is going to demand a lot from all of us (including me), so we need to start right now by planning, doing some research, and holding to our agreements about getting our work done.  That last part is especially important because we are now interdependent-- each of us will depend on the rest of us to move this forward.
4. Dust off your blog and post according to instructions in class

thank you

As often as I say it, I feel like I don't say it often enough: Thank You. Thank you for your effort, your insight, your willingness...
