Next week, we will be trying our hand at meeting asynchronously!

By noon  on Weds March 2, please: 

1. The first step will be to watch and answer the questions to the Discourse Community Slideshow on Edpuzzle.  You will need to do this all in one sitting, because I’m not making everyone sign up for an account.  Please give yourself at least 20 minutes! This exercise is meant, not only to give you info on Discourse Communities, but also to introduce you to EdPuzzle!
2. Watch video walkthrough of 1121 Assignment trajectory also on edpuzzle .  You can do this at a different sitting.  This has fewer questions, and they’re all optional– just spots for you to add your own questions or comments.  Should take you about 15 minutes.

Here are links the 1121 Weekly Schedule and 1121 Assignment Sheets (also already installed on the Model Course Site).  And here are the links to the 1121 slide shows, by unit.  Here, you can see the slide shows on the NYT Mentor text articles, as well as links to those articles.

By noon on March 8, please:

1. Read the two articles on research (Kynard and Graff)
2. After reading, please post a blog post to this Open Lab site considering (some of) the following questions:
   • • What does the term “research paper” mean to you?
     • How might we expand our definitions of research and “research paper”  to more fully contain the curiosity and delight of research and discovery?
     • What are some ways you have taught research in the classroom– successfully and unsuccessfully?
     • What are some ways you have engaged in your own research– successfully and unsuccessfully?

Please note, you don’t have to answer all of these questions– these are just starting points to guide a post about research!
