Our group's name arose from the comment that we would all start by taking baby steps towards our goals. Our group members are all working on individual questions under the umbrella question "How will alternate instructional strategies improve the learning and engagement of the students in my class?" Many group members are interested in using technology to support their question. Specific ideas discussed included:
-flipping the classroom (providing the lesson online)
-creating video demonstrations which would be available to students who have been absent
-increasing the availability of online support material for students
-introducing more active and hands-on activities within the classroom
For our next meeting on September 12th, group members have been asked to refine their focus and come prepared to discuss the specific strategy they will be introducing as well as the "baby steps" they will need to take to implement it.
