Hello Everyone,

Here is an outline, links and an article pertinent to my part of the presentation this afternoon. I know it’s a lot, I’m hoping people can think about their keyword / short phrase before we gather. Also, if people can bring definitions of phenomenology, that might move things along a little faster. We’ll see how far we get.

It will also speed things up if people can get their laptops plugged in, turned on and connected to the wireless network before Andy starts his session.

My section of the presentation will be divided into 4 short topics:

1. teaching philosophy keywords or phrases

I’m bringing colored pens and paper. I’m going to ask each person to write down a keyword or short phrase about their teaching philosophy and decorate it as they wish.

2. meaning construction: phenomenology

using the laptop computers, 1/2 class look up definition – phenomena, 1/2 class look up ology

put definitions together

think about phenomenology and technology use in education, including online environments

3. using complexity thinking to theorize technology use in education
