Chapter 5

On-line learning is here to stay, what we choose to do with this will enhance our students learning as well as ours. I have taken an on-line class and I really enjoyed it. We read information and shared comments to each other, it was a very safe way to express ideas and share information.

I think on-line learning is important and can be of benefit to all students to a certain extent. Our Moodle is a great example of on-line learning where students are protected. We will eventually need to let students be more independent in their on-line learning, but we will need to teach them responsibility and safety.

Chapter 4

Primary sources: we have so many ways for students to access information from primary sources from interviewing to web archives to collecting and interpreting data. It will be our job to guide students without directing students about information. I see our job to be much smaller than when they get older, but we still need to be letting students have access to all kinds of sources within guidelines.
