It has been quite some time since my last post. How do you summarize life and change in a brief time? Lists!
1. Decision to "retire" in June 2013. This will be the subject of some future posts. My priorities are very different from those in charge.
2. Bought an old truck and a slide in the bed camper. Thirty-six years of tent travel with Vicki have come to an end.
3. Attended the Virtual Schools Symposium in November. WOW!
4. Blackboard is unable to recover my on-line class that was accidentally deleted even though a back-up of the class was created according to their instructions.
5. Currently planning for a return trip to Brasil in June (Vicki and I).
6. Vicki is planning a trip to Liberia (check out some options for training teachers) in October.
7. Searching for a host for Moodle. see #1, I didn't say I didn't enjoy teaching, would love to develop on-line World History and U.S. History classes for Missionary students and Home School students. More later.
8. ASCD conference in Philadelphia in March! Our arrival allows me to do some history site visits on Friday, pictures for use in class next year. Registered to hear Charlotte Danielson (teacher reflection and evaluation)
9. Planning for best use of education skills in retirement. Currently getting ready to send final paperwork to Oregon for certification. Would love to assist a district starting a virtual school.
