New Blog

Hello! This blog is active for Rock n' Roll methods, a term 2 and 3 course at Batavia High School. Njoy.

What I learned/think about the first course:

I enjoyed the discussion thus far and the fact that it seems that we'll be exploring quite a bit on our own, which I enjoy and learn more from. I also enjoy the fact we are trying to make this a more relevant course and one that we can use almost immediately. I hope we continue to talk about major themes, overarching operations, etc. that are important for our profession.

How will I use this blog in the classroom:

I think this will be the main source of information for my students. I'm going to begin asking them to blog as well. Effectively, I'm asking them to document their own learning online for everyone to see and comment on. We'll see if it has a positive effect and how I can make it more beneficial as the class goes on. I'll also ask students to place their work on their blog and do their aesthetic critiques via youtube embeds. That should be cool.
