It's just that there always seems to be something else to do. I haven't been blogging much and for that I apologize. I will try to do better in the future.
I want to say to the juniors, good job on your online assignment. You guys really got into it over the weekend and put up some good responses. I am glad to see that you are taking the work seriously and getting it done early. This is a collaborative assignment. The sooner everyone posts individually, the better it is for the group.
I feel like I have been running around crazily since the beginning of the year and it has to stop. SO I have decided to re-prioritize the work. I will do in class what I want to and out of class I will work on the things that I think are most urgent. I cannot be a slave to teaching, there is too much to do. Classtime will be used for university and other IB work and the teaching will have to take care of itself. I think this will also break up some of the routine that we so easily fall into.
The CAS handbook is a good example of this. Our non-existent coordinator was supposed to be involved in this. Instead of me writing it I am going to post it to Google docs and let all of you have a hand in writing it. Why should I have all the control over the content? Open source and mass collaboration work and this will be a test case. I hope you will join me.
