I'm a firm believer that Facebook does have positive benefits and it will be interesting to see how it plays out in "real life" especially as I have friends that are not on Facebook and continually disparage it. I think this may offer a rebuttal to how it can be a good thing and not just a time waster/contributes to a lack of humanity.GCfLearnFree.orghttp://blog.gcflearnfree.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-77300007497202344212011-05-15T23:48:34.267-04:002011-05-15T23:48:34.267-04:00For those who are interested, I'm blogging abo...For those who are interested, I'm blogging about this process at:<br /><br />livingfacebook.wordpress.com<br /><br />Just thought I'd let people know.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10956056168256756705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-62862950494380093742011-05-15T14:01:16.693-04:002011-05-15T14:01:16.693-04:00Great project John.

It is exciting to me to read about what intention, attention, critical thinking, doing, and reflection do for learning and wisdom. <br /><br />I am wondering, about this statement: "The reality is that I need interruptions and laughter and body language. I need stutters and stammers and interrupted speech." <br /><br />Perhaps, if I may comment, are you finding that you need both -- the world of sensual reality and the world of distant and safe, social validation. Could the beauty of Facebook be in the feelings that are created in the interchange between these two spheres, in the rhythms and challenges of the dance between them?Jamie Feild Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00100050380133104561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-80062294380262275022011-05-15T09:29:15.404-04:002011-05-15T09:29:15.404-04:00I just sneezed into a snot soaked paper towel that...I just sneezed into a snot soaked paper towel that is sitting next to me on the couch next to me like a dead hamster. I am listening to Tom Waits high on TheraFlu typing gibberish/genius into your blog post. <br /><br />There is no perfect me, online or off line. I look and feel like crap. I just wanted to say I like what you are doing and who you are from what I have seen online. Someday I will meet you in real life, we will go on a hike and talk Jesus, music, and philosophy. Till then I will scribble where you scribble online and tell you what everyone always tells me. Don't take it all so seriously. <br /><br />Loved this line, "maybe the allure of Facebook is that it meets my primal need for affirmation of both my ideas and my identity." <br /><br />How is that for affirmation?Jabizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15060918134697370964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7029419017923677229.post-16096683129689769732011-05-15T07:05:52.183-04:002011-05-15T07:05:52.183-04:00Thumbs up ;-)

And you flipped my whole way of thinking about it on its head.<br /><br />I also love that, as usual, my ah-ha moment came from the mouth of a student. When they said that they wanted affirmation from one another I had a realization about my own classes. I think this is why my advanced classes seem to be more successful in my eyes. They have more effectively fostered a family atmosphere where they affirm one another and therefore are willing to take more risks. So, I need to figure out how to foster that in my other classes as well and not assume it's just because they are younger.<br /><br />Thanks for getting the thoughts churning, even if it is a bit of a tangent.<br /><br />Good luck with the rest of the experiment.Roderickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06541646454260264832noreply@blogger.com
