Probably everyone has completed the course survey ... but for those that hasnt, you can log into your blackboard acct and complete our course survey

I have finally finished working on a wiki containing every single website in the body of the chapters in our textbook. You can access them from this page:

http://lemmingworks.org/earlychildhoodeducation/index.php?title=Links_to_WebSites_from_our_textbook

I hope you will enjoy them.

I was looking at our textbook's website and found those liniks there

http://intranet.cps.k12.il.us/Assessments/Ideas_and_Rubrics/Intro_Scoring/Eval_Rubrics/eval_rubrics.html
http://mailer.fsu.edu/~jflake/rubrics.html
http://school.discovery.com/schrockguide/assess.html

I think that it is a good online resource, check it out

I found this great website that I thought I would share with everyone. It is a live feed to a nest of animals and it is seen in real time. What a great way to introduce new wildlife to children who may have never seen them before. Its a Canadian site run out in Vancouver. Have a look it's my new favorite.

I have been working on our Developmentally Appropriate Technology Collaborative Assignment and I came across this website http://www.education-world.com/a_tech/tech/tech215.shtml. I think it is worth to read it so I have decided to post it here. I would appreciate some feedback from you guys: what do you think about introducing technology such as computers as early as late infancy and early toddlerhood? Do you think that there are adequate hardware (i.e. the keyboard) to accommodate very young children’s skills and needs?
I’m looking forward your opinions.

TeacherSource | learning.now . Using Blogs as a Novel Approach to Engage Students | PBS: describes an ontario teacher blogging with her 7th grade kids. This may be older than the ages we're considering, but it is worth checking out.

Since the google lab is done, I wanted to point out: Google Blogoscoped to youi as a fun place to find fun things to do with google that you never imagined.

As of 3pm, the marks will be up, but you can check out the comments now.

If you have any questions or comments about the evaluation, please first check over the assigned steps on the evaluation page (http://lemmingworks.org/earlychildhoodeducation/index.php?title=CECE912-2006.evalwiki) and have a clear sense of what I may have missed.

Good work over all!

Hi everyone,  Ajeetha and I are sitting in class and want to get this assignments going.  Cool Cats have had a few discussions on the assignment allocation.  We were interested in working on developing an attractive/interactive main page.  (the first part of the suggested layout)  Is everyone okay with that.  If so we are going to get started on it tonight!

Ajeetha and Lisa
