Along the CG Journey

Posted by: laverty08 on: June 11, 2009

I guess like with most things, the more I use CG Learner, the more I feel comfortable with it. There are teachers in my staffroom who are not doing the course who have begun using CG Learner. I think the best thing about it, is that it is accessible from any computer. There is no need to save the work onto a USB and transport it, with the risk of saving too many copies. It is available online and other collaborators are able to access it, add to it and so on.

 

The discussion we had around whether to keep the student side or not was interesting, I believe writing of the students side, does allow you to think about how exactly you will explain or introduce the activity to the students. But for experienced educators, I think it would be less time consuming to write the teacher side only. As Bill mentioned, do we just expect that students are able to understand the teacher talk and therefore only write that one? I agree with this idea, as we don’t often show students the learning element anyway. Or should we be doing this?

 Overall, I believe CG Learner is an excellent resource. It is accessible, easy to use and easy to share.
