Welcome to Week Four (the final week!) of our June module, Tech & Tools! I hope you all have been enjoying the work we’ve done so far and that you’re able to finish strong this week. If June has been super busy for you and you haven’t had a lot of time to devote to the module, I encourage you to dig in!
Next week, we will be switching to our July module, Designing for Education (and all Season One participants will be engaging in that), so, if possible, try to wrap up your Tech & Tools work by Friday. While Tech & Tools won’t be going anywhere (and you’re always welcome to revisit and continue to engage in the module), we want you to be able to really focus your attention on Designing for Education next month.
I have a few tips/pointers/suggestions to help you focus this week:
- If you haven’t already, take a look at the portfolios of others in the module and leave a comment on something they’ve written or created!
- Go back and review the topics of this module and consider if anything in the slides, video, topic page strikes you differently now than when you first reviewed them; share your thoughts in a reflection on your portfolio.
- Jump into the conversation about how you define technology — a new discussion question prompted by a comment Liz left on a different question.
- Pick a resource from one of the other modules (Formats & Modalities or Care & Equity) and notice any connections to what we’ve been talking about in our own module. (Or spend sometime looking around the questions, resources, and participant portfolios of those modules — get to know the folks you’ll be spending July in conversation with!)
As always, if you have any question or concerns, reach out on Teams!
