Hi everyone,
I was just thinking about this semester because we are now on the downhill side of the course. I must admit that I have learned alot from all of you by reading your blogs. I wasn't sure on how effective this was going to be but I must change my opinion. No matter the area of concentration, its great to see teachers who are still excited about their career and want to learn more to become a better teacher. I have seen too many who are now in the "I love my summers off" mode.
I have four courses remaining in this program before my oncampus visits and in that time I hope to find some online chat rooms or postings that I can participate in. Exchanging ideas between subjects as well as geographic regions keep one fresh in their are. So, my question for the week: Has anyone for discussion boards outside of U.F. that they will continue to participate in??
Thanks and have a nice weekend,
Ken

I have to say, I definitely dig summers off, but I'll be spending time at GTRI (The Georgia Tech Research Institute) working with a friend to get materials for a lab class online. I plan to keep my blog at least semi-active; this is the second of the 3 classes I've taken at UF that have had a blogging component.
I sorry, I don't know any discussion boards and between working and my son I don't plan on spending to much time on work and work related issues when I don't need to. As for your teacher comment about summers off, that totally frustrates me. I myself have teachers I know that have a countdown going till the end of the year. That totally get me going, because I haven't even thought about it in regards of getting rid of my students. Sorry I couldn't be much help. Try asking Rick Fedig.
