Welcome to a New Cohort of EDLA 7550!

Posted in Introductions, welcome at 7:05 pm by edla7550

As you already know, this semester each of you will set up a blog linked to this course blog on which you will post your writing. More specifically, on a weekly basis, you will compose a reflection weblog entry (a blog post) to share with larger audiences. In this post, you should develop your critical questions, explore tensions, and offer solutions to problems/issues under discussion in the course readings. You will also comment briefly on peers’ reflections. I hope that you will all find thinking and writing on the blog a refreshing and empowering learning experience. For more details about this assignment, please see our course syllabus.

Your first task is to post an introduction entry in the “About” page, which will give you the opportunity to introduce yourselves as educators to others in this course and beyond. Tell us something about your expectations from this course. You may think of this post as a mini “mission” statement or contract. Let us begin the journey.
