Feeling *slightly* overwhelmed – in the best way possible – after today’s Face 2 Face session at MaRSDD but taking away SO MUCH inspiration.  I’m coming away thinking that the theme for my action plan is a little bit… weak compared to some of the amazing ideas I heard today and I am thinking I might need to change course a little.

Immediate next steps

• I want to explore Padlet (this is nothing to do with my action plan but I have a fairly immediate use for it in one of my classes). I’m going to look at the boys using it to create a very quick presentation with information they have already written instead of the arduous task of creating a Powerpoint or Keynote presentation (I know from experience that this takes longer than I have right now).
• I need to figure out MY definition of digital citizenship.
• I need to figure out which area of digital citizenship I want to explore for my project. I had initially thought that I’d look at this:

#C21actionplan = create use-able, do-able recommendations for elementary school teachers re: digital citizenship best practices (copyright)

• but now I think I might have to broaden this plan – is it “enough”?

I’m going to take the weekend to ponder this and I’ll post my (re)thinking before the end of next week. Because

(steps to take in the near future)

• I pledge to post my thought process much more often between now and April. Writing helps me figure stuff out. And after today, it looks like I have some big thinking to do.
