I will create a Sophie Book for Dr. Burns Digital Dreams course. He does things a bit differently, but the course is very informative. Each student must call Dr. Burns once a week. Yesterday, we spoke for an hour! It was a great conversation. I learned so much having one on one time with Dr. Burns.
If you don't know what a sophie book (big possibilities here!) is here is a link: http://www.sophieproject.org/
I can see so many possibilities with this. I've thought for a very long time that if students didn't have to buy a text, they could spend that money on technology.
The TES text is proof that online texts are begining to fit into the tenure process so I think that takes care of that aspect of the issue! I'm sure there are other issues that aren't even on my radar. Let me know what you think.
Once I get my Sophie book up I will link it here. Also, there is another link to an inner section of Sophie somewhere in the Technological Ecologies & Sustainability text (great text by the way).
About Me
- bell
- If you are old enough to remember Mother Earth News and Green Acres, you can begin to imagine how I live. Right now I am sitting by the woodstove keeping warm. This morning I hauled wood in for the day. Every once in a while I reach over and stoke the fire, add water to the pots on top of the stove to keep moisture in the air. Furthermore, the few spare moments I have this time of the year, I spend planning my garden. I've ordered the seeds to start my tomatoes and peppers, I've got my red potatoes sitting in a dark place in order to eye up, and I have onions on the counter ready to plant. I noticed yesterday that my garlic is already coming up. Beside pursuing a PhD. in Critical Literacies, I love creative writing, history, and politics.
