Morning, all. I am scrambling to get my independent learning project (my blog) done, so I can present along with my kids today as I promised.  I still have meta-cognitive maps and a reflection to complete.  I suspect I am probably not alone.  I imagine some of the kids are probably up, too, scrambling to get done.  Anyway, while I am excited to share my project with the kids, I am more excited to learn about their projects.  This whole independent learning thing has been a surprising challenge for them, and I will talk at length about it next month during our official launch.  For now, I am simply excited to learn what they learned.  Tell you about it tomorrow.

Unofficially, the blog is up and running, and I am learning a lot as I make my way through the blogging universe, but the “official launch” is set for January 1, 2016.  I have a lot of work to do before then.  Thank you for all the support and well-wishes so far.  Can’t do it without you.

After years of thinking about it and recently being challenged to complete an independent learning project with my students, I have started my own blog, a blog dedicated to changing education–one word at a time.  And while I have many words to share, I cannot do it alone.  I need your help.  Your words count.  Truly.  Let’s do it, then.  Let’s change education.
