This course jumped out to a quick start to me. I remembered session 1 was a short introduction, and we went right into our video presentations. However, observing everyone's presentation and listening to feedback was very helpful in preparing for the capstone. I enjoyed the breakout sessions and the small groups, allowing everyone to share and express their knowledge. Some of the reading material was a little overwhelming. Although, I do appreciate the sense-making and bridging the gap from Dervin. I liked the example from Ruth on structured lesson design and the example of brushing teeth. My favorite reading was Baggio, and how she provide great examples (in my opinion) like using the font Sans so it makes it easier for the reader to see the screen. She also stated "Less is more. Keep it simple" "Chunking is a way to minimize cognitive load". I found her book was very delightful to read and it was easily to comprehend. I first heard about TPACK in the first semester but didn't fully understood it. This course helped me break it down and dissect it more. Using technology in physical education class was a challenged since the environment was not the same as the classroom. Being open-minded and trying to find ways to get students engaged and motivated to the content in P.E. by using music was a success. Sorry to keep showcasing my students' Crossfit PBL, but I was very impressed how they developed and presented their Crossfit WOD with the use of a technology tool.

I agree with you sour this semester! It seems like we’ve done so much but at the same time it went by so quickly. I also found Baggio to be the most applicable text. It’s great to know that what you did with your students and CrossFit really made a difference in your teaching and their learning. If you keep coming back to it you know it was impactful, so that’s awesome. Nice work!

It is impressive, and innovative! I'm sure that what you're doing with the kids will continue to progress as you continue to explore and have new wonders. I know I have definitely developed new wonders but at the moment I have to stick to the ones I need for my capstone. I also enjoyed reading Baggio, it felt very relevant and straight to the point, something we could easily apply to our life and instruction.

I also found Baggio to be an easier read as well. It was full of great examples and easy to understand academic vocabulary. Sometimes wordiness doesn't mean better. I would like to know more about how the students worked through the PBL for their Crossfit assignment. I enjoy your enthusiasm with your students and their progress.

I want to personally thank you for introducing our cohort to Adobe Spark. I have found it easier to manipulate than other tech tools for voice recordings. I also found Baggio much easier to understand and implement within classes. I am looking forward to see how your Capstone reflects the lessons you have implemented with your students in PE or creative surprises.
