Like Work/Life Boundaries in Teaching? Don’t Give Your Students Your Real Cell Phone Number!

(Note: this was inspired by a mass email I received touting a service that I actually do use. I’m not being paid anything for this, but it does open up a bigger conversation about where to draw lines in the technology realm.) When I was teaching online, I had several students ask me if they…

Don’t Get Impressed by the New Shiny

There’s a lot of glitz in technology. When something new comes along, if it does something really cool that nothing else does, there’s something in your favor. Easy to use app? Awesome. Is it free*? There’s another plus. Are all the cool kids using it? OH MAN SIGN ME UP!! But to revisit the old…

BlendKit Week 2 Reading Reaction

Ahh…Expression. In my teaching experience at a community college and at my current institution, I’ve taught both online and face-to-face.  I’ve never taught an academic blended course (although I’ve facilitated a sort-of-blended training course). I’m really interested in student interaction.  This semester, in my traditional course, we’ve had several classes where the students had very…

BlendKit Week 1 Reading Reaction

BlendKit Week 1 Reading Reaction So I’m attempting BlendKit again – it’s not my first trip through the course, and last year I was pretty upset when life caught up and kept me from finishing the class.  Oh well, that’s life…right? So as I read the chapter I get hit several times with some realities…
