I am happy to know one of the nicest technology teachers in Serbia. We both went to Montgomery County Community College for 2 years in Pennsylvania. She went back to Serbia to finish her Bachelors, I stayed in the US and transferred to Stockton.
She currently teaches technology to some unprivileged kids from various areas in Serbia. Check the site for more information:

I also recorded a brief conversation with her on skype.

Big relief...and an upcoming challenge!

I am so glad a big part of our responsibilities in this class is over. It was a good experience, and definitely something to learn from. Thanks for all the comments and feedback!

Can't wait for the next presenters, Stacia, Roma, and Mickey!

Also, Erin, Dustin and I have the honor to present our previous project during the scholarship day on March 2nd. Wish us good luck!

Ready for some hands on constructivism?

This Tuesday Kyle, Ericka, and I are presenting on constructivism, as well as cooperative learning theories. We ll try to engage everyone in the class, and give them an example of the theories live. We appreciate everyone coming in class, and we are willing to offer delicious rewards for making you drive to Stockton. So make sure you make it there :)

Constructivism Theory

I have to be completely honest about the whole meaning of the class. When I read the description I was a little skeptical as far as the usefulness of learning the theories dealing with the foundations of Instructional technology. However, as I am researching for my projects, I observe the evolution of learning in general. Constructivism especially, is a theory that is used widely nowadays and promotes new ideas and great teamwork. I realized that I can apply different learning theories on my workplace, and ultimately approach my staff with different learning techniques.

Here is our Digital Summary on Constructivism

Today's class

I am so glad Ryan and John posted their behavorism assignment links on discussions.
We have a pretty good idea on what to do for our assignment now. I look forward to get sanitized today for their behaviorism lesson.


ps: how cool is that?

Cool Handwriting application

First day of class

Every time the semester starts, everyone gets a little intimidated by the workload ahead of them. It's true, a syllabus composed of 12 full pages isn't always the best start. However, this time i felt very relaxed. This is mainly because the assignments and the projects were thoroughly explained as well as their due dates.

I have a positive feeling about this semester :)
