Oceans Eleven

Hello everyone. I sincerely hope that your spring break didn't leave you spring broke. Like my good friend Flat Stanley, I was very busy over the break doing everything non-academic. My wife absconded to Austin, Texas, with Flat Stanley, for a little time at the Lake Austin Spa. Zoe, Lily, and I had a great time playing, staying up late, and refusing to eat anything green.
Anyway, we are now in week eleven of 15 with only a few more activities to accomplish before the end of the semester. My T/Th class has begun the formal Pod Collaborations around TPE 14. NOTE TO T/TH: I am going to give EACH POD its own discussion board. For the Wed class, you'll understand tonight.
Due this week: Photoshop and Copyright.
Journal articles: The new L & L has arrived!! For the last two articles, we will focus on issues of equity and social justice. I want you to read "Bridging the Gap" by Don Hall in the current issue, page 15 (Vol 33 #7). For your last article, I will let you choose any article that has to do with issues of equity and social justice that relate to technology. You may search L & L or go "Outside the Box" and find any article that deals with how technology can address issues of equity or social justice!! If you do get an article from the web, please include a link on your blog.
I think that's all for the week, I'll write more later if I can think of anything else that contains a modicum of interest to the collective.
