So today we put together a course in Canvas. Really user friend'y and a lot preferable to Coursesites I think. Gonna try some experimentation this July and see what I can put together for the fall. Lots of planning to do!!
We also went over powerpoint and how to do some neat tricks with it. This seemed counterproductive to what we were doing yesterday with Prezi....but I see the point. One of my concerns about the whole flipping of the classroom is:
What happens when the internet is down.
I guess we can use our backup (jumpdrives, powerpoints) which actually makes a lot of sense.
Art project is on hold til the glass is ready....really excited.
I have truly found myself in art. I am abstract, and this project has allowed me to explore that side of myself with more depth and articulation than ever before.
When the internet is down, it's art time! You think you'd like coursesite more if we used it more here?
ReplyDeleteGood point! I used coursesites last year and canvas seems to be more teacher-friendly. Whether or not it is student friendly remains to be seen. I didn't have an issue navigating, but that doesn't mean a whole lot. Most of your colleges are doing Canvas so it'll get them used to the next level.
