It was a handout of five pages, Book One of the MEDITATIONS of Marcus Aurelius, that I downloaded from Project Gutenberg. We read aloud from it, and interpreted what he meant in modern words and examples, and argued whether he was right or not.<br /><br />I think it was in the spirit of Paperless Friday, if not precisely in the letter.<br /><br />Once my school's wiki gets up and running (Monday, they tell me), I'll move to paperless Fridays absolutely.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-58052177291105230532009-09-19T15:35:22.349-04:002009-09-19T15:35:22.349-04:00I think this is a great idea!
One paperless thin...I think this is a great idea! <br /><br />One paperless thing I was thinking about incorporating into my classroom was student voice recordings, using a site like snapvine.com. Students would have to call into some number and record a response to a relevant question. The recording would be saved on their snapvine voice blog and they could just send me the link.<br /><br />It'd help me to hear how they think through their answers and give them a chance to talk through problems b/c, as we know, when you explain things, you understand them better. <br /><br />Have you done anything like this? or anything similar? <br /><br />snapvine.com was the only site I found that would let them just call into a number and record, but i wonder if there are other sites or similar technologies available that could also work. <br /><br />thanks!Kala_Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10972471785167173501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-56828197022838481212009-09-19T15:10:08.740-04:002009-09-19T15:10:08.740-04:00Might have to make it paperless Thursday, Friday i...Might have to make it paperless Thursday, Friday is weekend in most Middle Eastern countries. Great initiative, though. I love the idea. Looking forward to the reactions.<br />Thanks TamasTamas Lorinczhttp://tamaslorincz.edublogs.orgnoreply@blogger.com
