Blog #8

I really enjoyed doing article groups over the last few weeks. It was a fun project to work on and the presentations have been great! The activities that went along with the lectures were all creative and I enjoyed the interactive aspect of the process.

My favorite presentation was the digital literacy group that went today. I thought that the popcorn website that makes movie clips was awesome and I’d like to try making one myself in the future. I also really liked the video game group. Their activity was well thought out and I thought that they did the best job of using their topic to help us think about learning in the new way.

Overall article groups were a good experience. I would definitely be interested in doing more group projects for the remainder of the semester because I think it’s been very beneficial for me to think through ideas about literacy and education tools in a small group format rather than alone or as a giant class.
