End of the Year

Wow, we're there, almost. I have one more final to give and grade and that's it. My statistics course is in the bag. All the tests are taken, all the grades are in. Precal will be finished by the time I go to bed tonight.

It's been a good year. I've learned a lot about the use of technology in a classroom. I've learned to always leave a walk space behind the desks so I can see what's on their computer screens. I've learned how to use moodle and now I'm working on when to use moodle.

This summer I want to learn about wikis - and start thinking what could be done in statistics with that sort of common communications.

Precal? Now there is a puzzle for technology - how do I teach them good work habits and basic understanding without pencil and paper? I'm beginning to think the answer is to use the technologies for demos, but stay very traditional in approach. Much to think about this summer.
