Day 10-Exit Slip

     In class today the chapter 8 discussion group presented. They discussed the new curriculums and changes that may be implemented in the future. Dr. Boyer brought up folk pedagogy (how we were taught influences our biases of how others should be taught), and how this can hinder our ability to look at new and different changes in education. Do we jump to criticize to quickly without even analyzing the pros and cons of a curriculum or other changes? We then discussed some Scratch tips and tricks. We must make sure that our Scratch project is reusable. This is something I will need to tweek with my own Scratch...I don't know how, but I will have to figure it out. I need to make sure that when the student is done using the Scratch project, they can redo it without having to reset all the sprites and costumes. I also need to make my numbers reusable. I now think that I have a lot of work ahead of me to fix all of these problems. We then need to evaluate our technology inquiry wiki page and how well our page meets the "yes test." I need to get rid of "retrieved from" from my formal sources. Lastly we went over homework expectations for the week.
