EDAD 536 Day 4 Reflection
I've always been curious about making a movie (I've watched it done, but always in awe). I guess I just thought it would be difficult (without a video recorder) as opposed to just time consuming. I enjoy the creativity it allows and I'm sure that with a little more practice, it will become quicker and neater than my results from class. I love working on these pieces of vision, but sometimes I get lost and frustrated when things don't go smoothly, because they look so easy, but it's just not working out... oh, wait...I guess that pretty much sums up learning and the educational process/system; whether you're a student, a teacher, a principal... "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming..." (Dory, Finding Nemo)... do I have to site the movie quote of the day?

I hear you, Bonnie. My brain literally hurt last night as I was falling asleep--like a muscle I had been working too hard all week. It's all good--we are being challenged, and it certainly humbles me to not know the material, so helps me relate a bit more to my students when they are confused. Take care.
ReplyDeleteYah...Bonnie...you are so right. All we can do is just keep trying, make the best of it, and take each bite sized nugget we can. You Rock!!! Ill miss our chats.
ReplyDeleteDory is totally my favorite!! There is something to be said for keeping it simple, like Dory, like Pooh! I once read a book called the Tao of Pooh, which explained Taoism through Whinny the Pooh - basically: Pooh just is! He is always totally present in the moment. Dory reminds me of that too!! :)

Thank you for your thoughts..."just keep swimming" is a good mantra to remember in regards to using technology. We need to build time into our day, so we can play with new technology and incorporate into our practice.
