Thing 23: I Made It...

Well...I made it!!! This has been a wonderful experience!! I have really gleaned a lot from each thing and I have seen my responsibility as an education change. I was struck by the last clip that said it is the death of education and the dawn of learning!!!

I am charged up and ready to add these things to my teaching next fall. Finding ways to create, collaborate, explore and learn is why I got into teaching in the first place. Change is in the air...and I can't wait to start to embrace the web 2.0 to my advantage. We have so many fabulous tools on the Internet available, it is just a matter of taking the time to make it an important part of what we are doing.

I guess, since the beginning, when I named this blog An Adventure Like No Other, I realized this is an ongoing journey. I want to be able to continue down paths that lead me to more thinking and a better way...for me, for my own kids and for my students. I want adventure and am willing to step out of the box to find it.

Thanks Ron, for putting this project together!! I hope the project continues to reach more and more teachers...we have a great opportunity for a powerful network!!!

So, now I am off on a new adventure...
