It seems there is a 3/4 scale rebellion occuring within Leda, Iris', and my online class. One team's survey on the class as a temporary, virtual organization discovered that "we're not having any fun!" :-(
Meanwhile, my laptop has crashed (a power problem) and I'm using the facilitites at the Esther Bone Memorial Library.
I almost had to take Danny out. Challenge him to a duel or something. He presumptively posted his name on Scott's soon-to-be-vacated desk BUT I got to Deb first (!) and got assigned to the desk officially. hehehe
I also discovered that Jolane won't be back....so then I was faced with a dilemma. Be kind to Danny (who's kind to Danny?!) and take the southern desk, or persist in my original aim and intention to claim the northern desk? Luckily for me (and Danny!), Shalini was wandering the halls looking for Benjamin. We did each other reciprocal favors. I let her use the phone, she consulted with me regarding the energy of each desk's space.
I'll take the southern desk, letting Danny keep the northern one. We'll have to share the bookcase. :-)
Just found a link to a blogpost on computer supported collaborative learning while doing prep for the online social impact of information technology class. The chapter on networked organizations is coming up!
We've got a new author, at least temporarily! George is a rebel. I bet he fits right in! :-)
