I found the 7 and 1/2 Habits interesting. After giving some thought to each of the habits, I would have to say that habit #2, accepting responsibility for your own learning, is probably the easiest for me. I am a naturally curious person (my family calls me the great interrogator---certainly not always meant as a compliment), so I am always interested to learn something new and willing to put in the time and effort to do so. The most difficult for me at this point, is habit #3, viewing problems as challenges. On a good day, this is not a problem, but on a day riddled with problems (I mean challenges), it can be tough. I was very happy to see that play made the list of habits! Habit 7.5 is also no problem for me!
I would like to learn to use some "things" that will make technology use more fun for both my students and me!
Setting up the blog was fun. It's something that I probably would not have done if it wasn't for this class assignment!
I agree that viewing problems as challenges can be difficult. It's easy to get bogged down especially if you have several at one time. We just have to keep the mental focus of what can I learn from this! Easier said than done!!
ReplyDeleteI too was very happy to see that "Play" made the list. I know when I start to become overwhelmed with things the best medicine is to just break away from the task and have some fun!
