We all know we learn...A great idea for a challenge. We all know we learn best from thinking about mistakes and such. I do spend time thinking about things that have gone wrong, need to do it more though. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.David Warrhttp://languagegarden.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-338834914703775055.post-41836281640987754402011-01-05T18:02:24.254+02:002011-01-05T18:02:24.254+02:00There's lots to choose from for this challenge...There's lots to choose from for this challenge! ;) Will easily participate.<br /><br />Happy New Year!seburnthttp://coursetree.ca/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-338834914703775055.post-87804612750765191412011-01-05T10:28:10.948+02:002011-01-05T10:28:10.948+02:00Hi Marisa.
Thanks for the comment and I'm lo...Hi Marisa. <br /><br />Thanks for the comment and I'm looking forward to that post! <br /><br />You've highlighted an important issue concerning this challenge - sometimes (or quite often even) the first time we try something new it can flop (whether it's a disaster or simply a 'flat' lesson) and it's very easy to then dismiss the idea and nver try it again. However, by reflecting on what went wrong and why, we can make sure a second attempt works better and hopefully encourage who have had similar difficult experiences in the process.<br /><br />------------------------------------<br /><br />Hi Cecilia! I somehow knew you'd find your way to a post with the word 'challenge' in the title. ;) I'm looking forward to your contribution (allowing for the fact that you need to have a lesson that doesn't go to plan first!)<br /><br />The video certainly was a time saver - 5 minutes to record (1 take), 5 minutes to play with it in Movie Maker (optional of course) and then hit 'upload' (in fact that was the longest part of the process!)<br /><br />So another challenge for you - make a video post for your blog!DaveDodgsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16896292275243412346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-338834914703775055.post-27039070906444563282011-01-05T03:27:25.595+02:002011-01-05T03:27:25.595+02:00Hi Dave,
Well, you know my thing with challenges ...Hi Dave,<br /><br />Well, you know my thing with challenges ;-) but despite that I agree with Marisa in thinking this is a fabulous idea Dave, we learn much more from what doesn't work, and sharing that through blog posts we can get people's ideas on how we could've handled what didn't work.<br /><br />I also have to admit I loved the video idea... Might copy you on that, it just seeems it would be fun (not to mention quicker!).<br /><br />Cheers! And let the challenge (and the new blogging year) begin!!!!<br /><br />CeciliaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-338834914703775055.post-56335166111285169962011-01-04T20:24:05.496+02:002011-01-04T20:24:05.496+02:00Good idea to focus on what DIDN'T go well, Dav...Good idea to focus on what DIDN'T go well, Dave. I have a post which will be guested by one of my DELTA trainees on his first Dogme venture and I thought the lessons learn from that not very successful lesson produced an outstanding assignment and reflection - going to share this soon. <br /><br />Have more good things happen to you in 2011 and have fun while teaching, too. <br /><br />MarisaMarisa Constantinideshttp://marisaconstantinides.edublogs.org/noreply@blogger.com
