Week 15

A 7th Graders PLE (or PLN)


This 7th grader seems a lot more organized than most of the students in our class. The things she is doing also seem more interesting. Grant it, this was for a science class, which (in my opinion) has a broader variety of topics than some classes. I think the tool she was using was called "symbaloo". I'm not 100% sure, I could only see half of the S in the word symbaloo because the video was cut on either side. Maybe it was just the program she used for her class that made it seem so organized and interesting.

Although I'm new to this, I believe I'm pretty well organized. I'm sure I could improve somewhere, but everyone should say the same thing. I agree that using the internet is much more organized and presentable than any paper work done in class. It's also great that students are free to explore any sources on the internet. This girl emails and even skypes scientists to get answers to her questions. That's taking research for projects to a whole new level.

Two Questions That Could Change Your Life- Daniel Pink

What is my sentence? I've never thought about my life in that way. The strange thing is, is that even tho that is a lot simpler than I ever thought it to be, it actually makes a lot of since. Maybe I've just been over analyzing things and not breaking it all down to simpler form. I've never asked myself if I was better today than yesterday either. When I figure out what I want my sentence to be I will let my readers know.
