I’ve already had a student 🙂 This one is repeating a class and … has learned *so much.* As in, a living, breathing reason why our full service support is needed and beneficial. You really wouldn’t recognize this one as the same person. first time through, learning the whole array of navigation — here’s a […]

Okay, I *am* an optimist. I’m easily infatuated with potential. I had about a 15 minute zoom call with “UDLPartners.” They’ve got a “Name it, Frame it, Tame it” video and the plan is to have “micro PD” videos — under 3 minutes. (Yes, we already speak the same language.) So now it’s time to […]

when I get out on the bike, the 37 different Really Important Things To Get Done slowly bubble to the top. Doesn’t always follow me inside… The Two Big Things are the Times Tables Class and the Cool Geogebra Spaced Retrieval Activity. Another Big THing that is lurking is… doing the Thing Like THe Lumen […]

So! My task! To create a student-facing activity in Geogebra that helps the lesson writer’s ideas or goals for the lesson come to life…. My “best Geogebra skills” aren’t that great so the coming to life part is my focus. Also, there’s already stuff on Geogebra. How can I add life to that? (the writing […]
