02/07 reflections

 If I am a designer (as an educator) who am I designing for?
-designing for a better world/ global community
What am I designing?
Designing a part of the basic foundation in a safe envi.
What is the final product for the design?
better world via production of innovators?


Teach them well and let them lead the way


 one of the "hats" of the teacher is that of the instructional designer.
when this hat is on, you are only concerned with the production of lessons via the PIE model
Plan->
Implement->
Evaluate and edit. ^^^
repeat.

The biggest take away from this lesson is probably the understanding of what role technology has in terms of the instructional designer.
Content knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, and technological knowledge intersecting is where we strive to be.

I also appreciate the fact that by being an instructional designer, it stresses creativity.  Also, by admitting to striving to the intersection, we MUST get over the fact that technology is here.  We just have to get used to it, and use it to help us.
