Fran,
I admire your goals: please let me know what specific support I can provide to help you. You have done an excellent
synthesis of relevant literature and design planning. Your description gives a compelling summary of the importance
of the instruction. It clearly communicates your design goal and a learning goal focused on what the learners will
accomplish as a result of participating in your instruction.
Your thorough learner analysis identified several characteristics that will guide your next steps. A focus on the
experiences best supported in the physical and virtual environments will help you later in the ID process when you are
aiming strategies at needs. Thanks for a very well-organized summary of analysis! You have a strong foundation for
continuing the design work.
While writing the next report, look for articles/reading focused on blended environments.

Fran,
Your project is developing very well into a plan that should benefit your students. In this report, you created a strong
foundation for moving ahead with the continuing development of some or all of the materials you will need for
formative evaluation and eventual implementation.
You have identified a large and complex goal and you have made sense of it with clear and active objectives,
supported by strategies that are likely to result in success and that engage students in a variety of activities. It is
helpful to see which assessment methods address each objective so it is evident that all objectives are accounted for
by a potential means of measurement. Your assessment strategies seem designed to provide detailed and meaningful
feedback.
The instructional strategies are appropriate and reflect your understanding of and sensitivity toward the learning
needs and interests of the students The sequence of activities seems well-suited to lead them from discrete skills
to application of multiple skills in increasingly complex tasks.
You may find useful instructional resources at the Langwitches site (http://langwitches.org/blog/), developed by one
of my former students. Also, I encourage you to propose your design for a language educators conference or
educational technology conference, as well as an article in a publication like ISTE's Learning and Leading with
Technology, at iste.org
I look forward to seeing what you learn from the evaluation process!

You have conducted a comprehensive and well-targeted formative evaluation of components of your project. You got
very useful feedback from learners and experts that you have incorporated into your design. I'm glad the process
helped you to improve the project. OfflineOffline

I wonder if there is a mid-point between face-to-face instruction and book-based instruction, such as in the form of
instructor audio or video, or a narrated presentation.
I look forward to seeing the materials you put together this week,

Fran,
Thanks for the clear and detailed overview of your analysis and design--the Jing was very helpful! You have created a
package of materials that appear ready for full implementation and that address the important need and objectives
you have identified. The materials encourage repeated independent practice with the skills and use a range of
approaches and media, including very impressive Ning that helps to make the skills concrete. I wonder if you can
change the default language of the Ning so phrases like "date added" would appear in Spanish.
I hope you have the opportunity to use your project as well as to continue to develop it with additional media, and to
share it with other professionals. This project would be a valuable story to share via an article in a education journal
or presentation at a conference
I look forward to the chance to work with you during your program at UF!

Fran,
These articles are well-chosen--the authors are leaders, the sources are good-quality, and the topics are important
as strategies in ID. I'm glad they emphasize student-centered design: this is the direction the field is moving. It is
interesting to think about the appropriateness of nesting the instructional strategy of project-based learning within
the delivery strategy of blending.

Fran,
Thank you for submitting your reflections to the prompts associated with participatory culture, personal
learning environments and networks, and Michael Wesch's video. Quite a bit of information to think about,
no?
The idea here was to introduce you to new ways of thinking about how Read/Write applications are
impacting us socially and educationally. The use of digital technology to support teaching and learning is
relatively new. What becomes important to consider is how we shape the tools, then how the tools shape us
and the way we think and relate to each other and the world. Let's face it, we are in the middle of a major
sociological shift. Therefore it's important for us as educators to stand back and look at the big picture to
see how all these pieces work together.
Your reflections show a level of depth and critique that I am happy to see. I like your frank honesty when
you self-reflect. That sense of being honest with yourself will serve you and your students well.
Your PLE looks quite useful with plenty of room for growth.
Again, as I've said in past assignment feedback, I hope you enjoyed this activity and found it useful in one
form or another. Remember, what we learn might not have an immediate impact today, but is often felt
days, weeks, months, years later.
I enjoyed working with you this semester and hope you were able to get something positive out of the
experience.

Wow! I hope you found this assignment rewarding.
4. You provide a HIGHLY detailed analysis and thoughtful synthesis of the videos under review.
Your understanding of the logistical and managerial considerations is clear and savvy.
You final critique shows a level of depth and understanding CLEARLY befitting a master educator.
Finally, your reflections on how these ideas might work based on your experience demonstrates a level of
understanding that is both scholarly and wise. It seems that this experience will be put to good use.
Overall, outstanding work!

I hope you enjoyed exploring the concepts shared in these Edutopia videos.
Overall, your critiques showed a depth of analysis representative of outstanding work. I like how you
organized both critiques and the level of attention and reflection you applied. You really handled this
assignment quite well.
Hopefully you were able to see what 21st century learning looks like in practice and can carry this
experience with you into your own teaching and learning practice.
School 2.0 Outstanding Not

Outstanding
Fran,
I hope you enjoyed exploring the School 2.0 learning environment and learned something in the process.
Your answers indicate to me that you are comfortable with technology and can use it to support and
connect with colleagues, students, parents, administrators and other outside community members.
I must admit I was particularly pleased with the way you handled this assignment. You are one of only a
handful of students who spoke about engaging parents and community/business leaders in a meaningful
way. You present a number of solutions that clearly take advantage of the Read/Write Web that
acknowledge and empower all stakeholders.
Given your enhanced perspective, I am curious to know how we might take advantage of School 2.0
thinking to bridge the digital divide that exists in many homes and communities?
Overall, you have done an outstanding job on this assignment. Now I will expect nothing less! ; )

Outstanding
Fran,
I always enjoy reading your responses. You provide a fresh and personal tone in your responses which I
appreciate. The fact that you are a practitioner seems to make these activities a bit more practical and
hopefully meaningful.
It appears you can now speak with confidence about the ways in which these particular Web applications
support learning and engagement.
I noticed that you provide thoughtful responses beyond mere summarization.
You demonstrate a clear understanding of gaming, simulations, and Webquests and how they can be used
in teaching and learning contexts.
Your delicious resources and annotation are quite helpful for me and for you as well. You've really handled
this assignment well.
Finally, thank you for the feedback. It always helps to know how students perceive the activities assigned.
Outstanding work!

how you truly think about the ideas presented.
I hope your Delicious links and annotations serve you well in your practice. Thank you for sharing.
I appreciate your feedback. It helps Dr. Dawson and I with planning for the next time we offer this course.

5. I appreciate your feedback. It helps Dr. Dawson and I with planning for the next time we offer this course.
The Delicious activity clearly needs some rethinking.
Again, thank you for your thoughtful reflections. You clearly demonstrate strong communication skills that
all educators should possess.
Outstanding effort and work!
Digital
Storytelling
Outstanding Not
Submitted–
Outstanding
Fran,
I hope you enjoyed working within Voicethread and can imagine potential uses for this application. You
provided a thoughtful reflection about incorporating the seven elements of a digital story. While these
seven elements are not meant to be prescriptive, they offer a place to begin thinking about how to use
mixed media to create a story online. My father was a great storyteller and he never used anything but his
voice and his face to capture my attention. Matter of fact, he tells pretty good stories over the phone where
I cannot see anything but his "voice."
Similarly, your reflections on True America, Bloom's taxonomy, assessment and the production aspects of
digital storytelling were equally compelling and thought provoking. Thank you for taking the time and
effort to put together such meaningful responses.
It is clear a lot of energy was put into this project and it shows, from storyboarding to rubric creation to
editing video to working with the talent. This assignment was designed to build on our previous
examination of learners as producers, rather than mere receivers. Obviously this activity was completed
earlier in your practice and not designed specifically with this class in mind; however it did meet the
standards set forth in the Guide. It would have been nice to have seen a student-created storyboard.
Thank you for the feedback. I will look into finding a way to share student work.
I am glad to hear that you enjoyed this assignment and were able to find value in the process overall. You
should be proud of what you were able to accomplish.
Outstanding effort!
Global
Connections
Outstanding Not
Submitted–
Outstanding
Fran,
I am pleased that you enjoyed this global connections activity and found some value in it. This assignment
was designed to get you to do some exploring in terms of ways to connect learners with learners across
the globe. As anthropologist danah boyd* (she prefers to spell her name in lower case) notes:
"Web2.0 is about glocalization, it is about making global information available to local social contexts and
giving people the flexibility to find, organize, share and create information in a locally meaningful fashion
that is globally accessible."
Part of our job as educators in a 21st century culture is preparing students and practitioners to be able to
take advantage of these new ways to connect, communicate and engage while recognizing that "we need to
pay attention to how different cultural contexts interpret the technology and support them in their variable
interpretations. We need to create flexible infrastructures and build the unexpected connections that will
permit creative re-use" (boyd, 2005).
Your annotated resources and tags will hopefully benefit you, your students, and your peers in your future
practice.
Excellent job. I imagine your role as a language teacher lends itself quite well to using digital media to
explore the interconnections between languages and cultures quite nicely.

Your notes were comprehensive and show a clear understanding of fair use and copyright law.
Your multimedia artifact description is clear, concise and quite strong. You demonstrate a clear
understanding of the issues involved with sharing intellectual property.
Your artifact itself was outstanding! Your rhetoric was both professional and concise. A truly appreciate
your desire to break away from the PowerPoint mold and risk playing with something new. Your time,
effort, and knowledge are apparent. Great job.
I enjoyed reading your self evaluation. It sounded like you worked between your comfort and risk zones in
6. I enjoyed reading your self evaluation. It sounded like you worked between your comfort and risk zones in
creating this artifact. You also show a strong, reflective stance in your write-up, analysis, and in the artifact
itself which I truly appreciate and admire. Thank you for sharing your thoughts regarding the effort
required to make this assignment come to life.
And thank you for the feedback on this assignment. I try to balance too much and too little structure to see
how students respond. Overall, you handled this assignment beautifully.
Professional

Outstanding
Fran,
You really handled this assignment well. You write in a such thoughtful manner which tells me you are an
extra special teacher.
Since I have been studying online teacher professional development for several years, I am always amazed
at the number of informal, as well as formal, learning opportunities that exist and continue to grow for
educators. Given the expanding nature of information and communication channels on the Net, finding
appropriate resources can be a challenge.
This activity was designed to provide you with a few places to begin exploring resource-rich professional
learning content. Coupled with your research on using technology in the curriculum, consuming, and
producing content, I hope you are finding some value in these activities and assignments.
ISTE is a popular educational technology site in the United States. There annual conference is attended by
over 5,000 educators annually. Edutopia is relatively new to the scene, yet given its deep pockets (thanks
to the George Lucas Educational foundation), they have become rather successful quite rapidly.
It appears from your prompted reflections that you were to gather a better sense of these organizations
and how they may or may not be able to serve you professionally in the future.
I hope you found commenting on an Edutopia blog not too stressful. Some people have a real aversion to
commenting on weblogs. However, it is good way to participate in the larger educational community and
build on your professional learning network.
Finally, thank you for sharing the additional resources you discovered. Dr. Dawson and I will review these
and determine which one's we should include in future iterations of this course.
Excellent, excellent work!
