Happy Holidays

Greetings fellow students of SDSU, Since MJ's class is finished, i was hoping we continue using the blog to post some of our christmas and new year's experiences. Better yet, lets continue using the blog until the end of our program for support and sharing reasons. I really enjoyed reading some of the blogs and I do hope we can continue to post.

Sharing is Caring

by Melanie, Kubarii, and Lou Ann

We chose to do our instructional package on Palauan Culture because we see teacher's needs of these information. In class today, we realized that we all have the same concerns since most of our presentations were about preserving Palauan cultures. As some of us had stated during our presentations, we had learned a lot more than we expected. So why don't we post up our final projects here or somewhere where we all have an easy access to? The instructional packages we created for this class are useful for every teacher, so let's share. Let's share how to preserve our traditional cultures.

Mayl, do we have the site yet or not?

Christmas is around the corner..

I would like to take this opportunity to say Merry Christrmas and Happy New Year to everyone. Our journey is half way done, so if you feel yourself tired try your best to complete this journey with your classmates and friends. As the great Bob Marley sang it in his song entitiled Redemption Song, " Emancipate yourself from mental slavery cause not but ourselves can free out mind."

Happy Holidays

Hello All, I just want to say HAPPY HOLIDAYS and take care.

Grassroots Learning

Grassroots Educators: Andrew, Dean, Elwais & Marcia (cook)

This project for EDTEC 572 has made us realize that there is so much our culture has to offer in educating our children. Not only do we have a unique culture, we also have a pre-packaged system in place for both teachers and students alike. Though our project is still in the ‘rough’, we are optimistic that we can create an instructional and student package from our topic that is realistic, applicable, and all encompassing in terms of content areas that needs to be addressed in our current educational system.

Final Project

Greetings,

Our group final project is going well. We are trying our best to make it user friendly as well as effective way to deliver lessons as well as getting good results. While doing the project, we have learned alot of tactics we could in our own classroom.

Final Project Update

At this moment our group had come up with a topic for our final project. We have met and divided our parts for the project. We are still in the process of gathering information. Once we gather information we are going to compile them and come up with our instructional package. Hopefully by next week we will be able to come up with the whole package, because the student's guide depends on the teacher's guide. We'll do our best.

Hi, MJ last Friday 11/27/09 we met as a small group and discuss about the our project. We came up with the Student Guide. As a group we shared some ideas on how to start with the students activities. Tonight as a group we continue to work with the same student activities.
