Wow! Congratulations! You are superstars! You've reached the 23rd thing. Give yourself a pat on the back for completing the program! We hope you have enjoyed the process and learned some things. But before we send you off into the brave new world of Web 2.0, there is one last discovery post.
For your last and final exercise for this program, please reflect on your learning journey and post a few thoughts. Here are some questions to prompt you if you're drawing a blank:
- What were your favorite Things (like in the Sound of Music) and discoveries?
- What did you find especially useful?
- What would you like to know more about?
- How did you connect with others doing the 23 Things?
- How has this program assissted or affected your lifelong learning and/or your classroom?
- Were there any take-aways or unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you?
- What could we do differently to improve upon this program's format or content?
- What do you love so much that you would like to help at an idea session for fellow staff members?
- How would you describe your learning experience in one word or in one sentence, so we could use your words to promote 23 Things learning activities to others?
- If we offered another discovery program like this in the future, would you again choose to participate?
- Maintain your blog as you continue to learn and play with new Web 2.0 tools.
- Add your blog URL to your e-mail signature line.
- Re-purpose your blog as your education blog.
- Share your blog with your colleagues and administrators.
- Start your own 23 Things with colleagues, friends, family. The concept is adaptable to any content--23 Books, 23 Movies, 23 Football Games, 23 Anything You Can Think Of. It is a great way to create and strengthen community through learning and discussion.
