i came across this site while looking at other peoples progress. i actually found it on jane bonds comments on thing 19. i can see a lot of creativity from the kids while using this.

What were your favorite discoveries or exercises on this learning journey?
my favorite thing had to be 6. i love taking pictures and now i have fun things to do with them besides making slideshows. being a fan of the wiki already, i do have to say that is a favorite also!


How has this program assisted or affected your lifelong learning goals?
it reminded me of some things that i knew about that were pushed out of my mind. i am ready with fresh ideas for my new adventure as tech coach. i am ready to show teachers they do have time for technology!


Were there any take-a-ways or unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you?
when i first started i thought i could breeze through this in a couple of weeks... well.. over a month later and i am still working on it... i have found some new toys that i wish i would have known about while still in the classroom, but i will now be able to share them with the teachers that i work with.
there were a few tasks that i just could not get, and that was really frustrating to me. i am usually able to figure things out pretty quickly when i play around.. the ones that really got me were the photo creations... i think it was thing 10...

What could we do differently to improve upon this program’s format or concept?
i am not sure... at first i thought more time.. but i am finishing with a couple weeks left (i think there are some things i need to tweek and finish). i am not sure if this same amount of time to complete is the same during the school year or not.

oh! the one thing i would like to see is the links that are posted...i would like them to open in a new window or tab and not in the same one. especially in the things that you need to look up several links to complete the task.



If we offered another discovery program like this in the future, would you choose to participate?
absolutely!

How would you describe your learning experience in ONE WORD or in ONE SENTENCE, so we could use your words to promote 23 Things learning activities?
addicting


Now go and comment on some of the other Players' blogs!

i was a little overwhelemed when i opened this site. it was not as user friendly as i would have hoped. i did not see anything that i could use at this time, but i will check back once school starts and i know what the teachers i am working with need.
