A Cornucopia of Thoughts

  • I’ve really liked the blogging assignments I’ve given my students so far, but I am behind in responding to their comments. I’m notorious for writing too many comments on their essays, and I just can’t keep up with the blogging comments as well. Any suggestions?
  • I would also like to use unitingstreaming for some of my classes, but I can’t seem to find clips that fit with my curriculum. For example, I wanted to show a clip of Geoffrey Chaucer or The Canterbury Tales and I couldn’t find one. Any suggestions?
  • I’ve also enjoyed the last few classes we’ve had although I usually feel we just scratch the surface of a new technique and then move on to something else. But that’s probably just my problem—I’m slow to understand new technology. What I find myself wishing is that I could take this class during the summer—I’d love more time to digest all that we’re learning!
  • Finally, I wish to personally thank Jared Robinson for showing me how to create turkey bullets even though I could not bet them to work on Blogger! Happy Halloween.
