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
