When you to the moonlit sky… what do you see?
?
Gaze into the moonlit sky...what do you see?In scientific terms, what a moon-gazer sees may come down to brain wiring. But through the ages, what civilizations perceived in the moon's face took on greater significance, in the preservation of cultures, origin stories, and beliefs.

“Understanding derives from
activity”-John Dewey
Three questions to ask yourself while designing learning activities
1.Where are we going?2.How are we going to get there?3.How do we know we got there?
Phrased a little differently…
1. What kind of learning do I want to see take place?
2. What kind of learning processes, skills, and strategies should students experience?
3. What kind of understandings should students gain?
Looking at our objectives… seeing the connectionshttp://bit.ly/dropboxskilz
Your job will be to design a learning activity which exercises 21st Century learning skills while meeting the objectives of your course. You will be working with a partner and your activity will be shared with the larger group.
Post your activity to the shared Wiki located in the ‘Technology Enabled Learning CourseSite’
