EDM 310

In order to fully comprehend EDM 310 you need to consult several resources. Just click on the links below or go to the [|EDM310 Class Blog] and find the links there. (If you do that you will find many other things of importance as well!): 1) John Strange's [|EDM310 Class Blog] is a public record of all that transpires in EDM 310:

2) The student blogs, links to which can be found in the [|EDM 310 Class Blog] . The student links are in the right hand column. Scroll until you find the link to the Classes organized by time. Click on a link and you will find links to all the students in that section. Links to the blogs of other instructors will be found in the Important Links area in the column on the right. From there you can find links to the individual students in that class.

3) [|Class Syllabus] and [|Revised Class Syllabus] . Links are under Syllabus and Other materials on the class blog

4) Blog Post Assignments ([|Blog Topics Part 1] and [|Blog Topics Part 2] ) These documents are critical to an understanding of what students must do when writing posts to their blogs. I recommend that everyone look at the materials assigned in these blog assignment sheets. Sometimes I add additional assignments for a given week. When I do,they appear as posts in the class blog.

5) [|EDM 310 Podcasts]

Other important materials: [|Dr. Strange's Strange Thoughts] [|The Schools of Tomorrow and the Tech Literate Teacher] The Tech Literate Wiki [|Dr. John Strange's Professional Blog] Every student in EDM 310 must also create a Professional Blog. This is my example. The Fall 2009 class is currently working on this project. I have provided them with a link to a few randomly selected [|examples from previous students.] Links to the Professional Blogs of all previous students who completed this assignment can be found on earlier Class Blogs. A link is on the current Class Blog top the most recent class blog. You can work your way back through time in that way.
