Take Aways from 5/3 EDUC 337

I am so excited about teaching this class again. I learned a lot from my first go around with 337 and want to do some small changes that I think will benefit the class as a whole.  As I was reading the blog posts from the first class, I found these suggestions that I am wanting to think more about:

1. Students seem to like doing the discussions in class.
2. Students seems to like working with small groups in blogging.
3. Students like visual cues for dates.  Can I somehow incorporate a calendar somewhere?

I am eager to learn from these pre-service teachers, too.  As I did as an elementary teacher and principal, I want to get better at this so that I send prepared teachers to the world!
