Important:
with this assignment we split the members of the class into:
- producers (students giving answers)
- analyzers and summarizers (students evaluating the answers from the other students)
we will rotate these roles - for this assignment, I suggest that
- Jing Fang
- Tomo Oda
are the "analyzers and summarizers"! The "analyzers and summarizers" can do their work individually or jointly!
- producers: please submit by 10:00am to the class website - please be on time, so the "analyzers and summarizers" can do their work!
- analyzers/summarizers: please submit by 2:00pm to the class website
Briefly discuss the following issues:
- what did you find
- interesting about the article?
- not interesting about the article?
- what do you consider the main message of the article?
- describe in detail your mindset about learning
- how did you develop it?
- when did you develop it?
- did you ever change it? what made you change your mindset?
- has our course ("Design, Learning, and Collaboration") so far influenced in any way your mindset about learning?
- what is the impact of media / technologies (e.g., computers) on the formation of mindset – if any?
