Not Even Near The End of the Journey

The exposure and challenge that we have experienced through this Web 2.0 course has been tremendous. Our journey has just been introduced to us. The rest of our journey will depend on each of our: vision, attitude, passion, persistance, and patience (many of the qualities we expect from our students). We are presented with a greater learning curve than the students we teach when it comes to Web 2.0 tools and skills. I feel it is my responsibility as an educator to think often about the future of learning and how I can best be prepared to serve my students and colleagues (in my PLNs and/or PLCs). We are going to need each other more than ever to continue on our journey. My hope in continuing my own journey is to find time each day to learn and practice/use more of what I have been exposed in this course (I don't think 10 minutes is going to do it). Making some of the tools and skills from this course part of the professional learning communities that I will contribute to this year will definitely be a priority. This is an exciting time for education and all who are involved. I am psyched about taking this journey with anyone who reads this.
