Hey everyone!!!
We are pumped that #IMMOOC, Season 3, is upon us. We have over 1000 new people that have joined this round, and many that are participating for a second or third time. This is going to be great. (If you are reading this and have not signed up,you can sign up here., and get the book here.)
My goal is to keep these updates each week as short as possible, so here is the information for this week.
- Join us for a YouTube Live Session With Jo Boaler, author of “Mathematical Mindsets“, at 8pm EST, 5pm PST (Monday, September 25). If you miss it live, all live sessions are archived. Link will be here
- The #IMMOOC Twitter chat will happen at 9pm EST on Thursday, Septmeber 28, hosted by Tara Martin, Katie Martin, and Annick Rauch. If you are new to Twitter chats, we will be posting something this week.
- This week, please read the Publisher’s Foreword and Introduction of the book.
- Here are the blog prompts for this week (please choose any one or write something on your own):a. Why is innovation in education so crucial today?
b. Talk about a time you dealt with adversity in education, and how you overcame it?Do not feel that you need to write a college essay. Write what you are compelled to write and share it. If the blog directly correlates to #IMMOOC, please put #IMMOOC hashtag in your title. You can also post under the relevant Facebook post which calls for all Week 1 Blog posts. - People have asked me for a document to help them for “credit hours” so I have created this document that you can keep up to date with your work, or use for your own professional learning. PLEASE NOTE that this is not mandatory and you do not need to complete everything to be a part of the experience. Make it personal, push yourself, but do what works for you.#IMMOOC Credit Hours Document
I look forward to meeting many new people, being inspired by educators that empower students and colleagues, and learning from you all this round. See you soon!
