Well today was much better day in the land of Google. I am still cracking myself up from last nights blog 2/5. Apparently Christina and I are the only two laughing. Thanks for reading my blog Pehush!
Today I devoted most of the day to my website. I actually started all over again..and yes for those of you who are counting I now have 4 sites....so what if 3 of them are total garbage!!! I opened the computer this morning with great apprehension, still stinging from my google marathon yesterday! I took a deep breath and off I went, trying to remember that this battle was going to be won one page at a time. First step was to find some inspiration. So many of you have done such an incredible job...kudos to all! Then I dove in rummaging through templates and premade sites. Once I found the right one for me, I was determined to make progress. I started off by playing it safe on my first page. I didn't want to become aggravated by the good ol textbox and pixels. As I went along I found my self daring to put more in....calendars, links, animated graphics. Four pages later I can honestly say it is starting to take shape.
Today was a NO APP day. I did manage to read a couple of blogs by Andy and Christina. Both were well written and had a great deal of insight to share. In Andy's blog he was able to generate a really good discussion about online/hybrid classes. I for one have nothing but praise for this type of learning. I have done some really great things in my classroom because of what I have learned from the both of them. In Christina's blog I love the facebook vs google theme. I had to giggle when she mentioned hooking up the modem to the phone. As kid I remember my dad doing the same thing and my siblings holding there breath waiting with anticipation. Look at us now....yes the beauty of social networking .....tempting us to put in all out there for others to see! Have a great night!
