  • 3. Words like “flipped,” “blended,” “asynchronous,” “differentiated,” and “MOOC” are not words to describe how you feel after inhaling a chili hotdog just before riding a roller coaster called the “Vomit Van.” Instead, these words are part of your ever-increasing #edtech vocabulary.

      I'm in a constant battle against many people in education when I try to explain that MOOCs are NOT a bad thing!! (And when I mention MOOCs in a crowd of people who are not involved in education, they just stare at me like I'm crazy).

      Thanks!  It seems as though most of my old college profs perceive online education in general - but specifically MOOCs, as a threat to post-secondary education.  This thought really bugs me, because I think it's essential that education be available for not only the nontraditional student like myself - but for anyone who wants it - even if they are below the poverty line!

      This video is funny and reminds me of most of my math class experiences.  My students seem so used to this sort of experience that they're surprised I'm asking more of them all of the time.  ("MISS!  Why don't you just talk the whole time like other teachers?!")  I constantly have them writing, responding, working together, and moving around.  It's a huge labor for them, alright, but they're certainly not grumbling as much as they used to!

      I long to have my own classroom and have this sort of platform.  A great way to show parents what their children are up to - and for students to showcase and be proud of their thoughts and work!
