You Tube, with a series of about 6 videos, that were thought provoking, and entertaining. Each video gave the class a starting point for discussion. The main theme I received from the discussion is that technology is used to bi-pass the common norm, and to push someone or something further toward success that would not have normally been achieved in a mainstream pathway. In his example he showed how You Tube was used to bi-pass norms. What are other examples of technologies that have allowed for this to take place? Here was the first video shared, that I enjoyed as an introduction to the course. I will definitely be stealing this idea.

Intensive Day 1
I came into this class a sponge. With high expectations and hopes that I can learn and draw from to then, turn around and implement into my classes. Dr. Dunn has not disappointed. As far as my first impression, he nailed it. Its nice to learn from an educational technologist that has been around a while and has well developed thoughts, ideas, and opinions on the use of technology in schools. He has also helped in developing my thoughts on research, but I will probably focus my blog postings on the highlights of educational technology.
