This is my first attempt at a blog and I am not too sure what I am doing. I have decided to do the research question for my final project. I also like the lesson plan idea but I am in another class right now and we are writing a lot of lesson plans so I wanted to do something different. I also liked the idea that this might get me a start on the EIS 500 Research class I have to take to graduate. I have not decided on a specific question yet but am thinking along the lines of how budget cuts in Iowa are affecting technology training for teachers and support staff.
I am currently having trouble focusing on my classes because I am getting ready to leave on a trip to Missouri and Arkansas to visit a friend. We are staying in Branson the first night and then going on to Mt. Home to stay with my friend. We plan to spend the day on their pontoon boat on Lake Norfolk (see picture). I am hoping the fall colors will be at their best. I haven't had a vacation in over a year so I am excited.
I will come back and really get into the project next week.
