first step ... charting a new course

so this is a blog ... my endeavor here is to develop a deeper understanding, appreciation, and vision for the role bloggs play to catalyze student learning ... to stimulate dendrite growth.

Keenly focused on the growing role technology plays to change instruction to realize increased student learning, I am just now exploring the many Web 2.0 applications that show promise in this field. I am a constructivist at heart, a Logo believer, one who has witnessed the learning magic of microworlds and the incredible power ownership has on any form of learning. I have come to realize that a child not engaged is a child not learning and that without an audience, an authentic out-of-the-classroom audience engagement is limited.

Let's see where this journey goes.
