Well I suppose I better get to it and make sure that I have this posted! I dont suppose that I actually looked at the calendar correctly to realize that it's the third week of October and we are getting ready to round third and head for home to quote a cliched baseball term...
Well my analysis and discussions with Junetheia were productive in the sense that it gave me a very clear example of how easily we can overlook each other if we are truly not communicating. what I thought was a pretty obvious tendency in Distance Learning with individuals communicating actively with each other was certainly not the case for Junetheia. She mentioned that her family impression was just the opposite in that they tried to just do the assignments and get the grade.
it's interesting to me, because as I mentioned in the discussion piece this past week, sometimes we have to get beyond the grades and get into active learning...but in order to do just that, we need to make sure we are all on the same page and are talking to each other as a general rule of thumb.
overall, the assignment confirms for the value of the DL environment as we continue to learn just a little more from each other every day.
