What is BlueSofaMedia.com?
BlueSofaMedia.com is a new teaching blog focusing on innovation, creativity, student engagement, professional development and technology integration.
I want to share with you the things that get me excited about teaching.
Why is this blog called BlueSofaMedia.com?
We live in a time when you can connect with people from around the world without ever leaving the comfort of your home. I like the analogy of a sofa being the center of teaching and learning. When I connect with global colleagues and expanded my horizons as a teacher and learner I am most often sitting on the blue sofa in my living room.
What’s in it for me?
Over the upcoming months I want to share with you a glimpse of some of the learning adventures that take place in my classroom. I hope this sharing is beneficial to all involved.
Professional “teacher” books can be great, but nothing quite captures classrooms and teaching like video. I consider BlueSofaMedia.com a new kind of blog because of the amount of in-class video clips, slideshows, and photos I’m including in each post. You’ll see actually teaching and students working through hands-on lessons and projects. Many posts include digital resources (videos, slideshows, photo collections) you can simply download and use with your class tomorrow.
