New Program at Florida State University Graduate School
A new, online course is underway at Florida State: "Blended Online Learning & Teaching (BOLT)." The prof asked us to join any organization or forum devoted to online learning and teaching, and I picked this one. We are in our first week, and are using the Mark Prensky book, "Teaching Digital Natives -- Partnering for Learning." I'm hopiing to check in each day to see what I can learn and what I might be able to contribute. I'm a former writing consultant with the University of Central Florida, and a journalism graduate from the U. of Miami.
