This Thanksgiving break was productive. Reviewed some brand new areas and added them to the book. Working on the case that will be added to with each chapter. My hope is to get with Nicholas over break to finish.

Today as I sat with my mother-in-law at AP&S (chemotherapy), I worked at editing the book. I have forgotten how much I covered. I still have some extensive editing to complete and will probably have SOME help on Friday to make corrections to the chapters I've edited. From 9:30 to 2:30, I worked on editing one single chapter. I think it was much easier to just write it! I shared some of the resources for the first chapter, Encourage Contact, in a previous posting. I will try to get another batch of resources ready for the second chapter to post to my blog.

Learning Objects, WIKIs, and Blogs - Oh My....
Today, I took the faculty on a quick tour of Lectora. We created a learning object that included a hotspot on a map, animations, and assessment. In addition, some student products were demonstrated (students in BU215 had created a tutorial on creating a macro and custom button using Lectora). I think the faculty enjoyed it and look forward to some of their comments.

We are still pursing WIKI avenues, but most faculty are working toward HLC this coming week. More to come
