Edge-ucators

I guess I would consider myself an edge-ucator in that I am very fluid in my course designs. I have a basic framework of where I want to go, what topics I want to teach. But sometimes I throw it all out the window to focus on other things. For example, this year I decided to focus more on teaching Vermont geography, and spent a long time on that. I used lots of web resources, Google Apps, Google Maps, videos, websites to help me teach. I gave students projects, but I focused the projects so that their research was meaningful and not just haphazard. I tried to teach them about good web etiquette and reliable sources.
