Kiinu is an Experiment! August 29, 2007

Today was my first day of school. My senior year. w00t! I get a ride this year that isn’t the bus… yey!

MY homeroom was changed… which was weird… but I got moved to the library.. Because of the Digital Communicats class I took. As it turns out. That class is an experiment about intergrating online courses into highschools.

The point of the whole thing is to prove that we as students CAN learn off eachother witout a teacher leaning down our throats. That the web can be used to help us learn better. So over the course of this year 22 sudents will be enrolled in this course online without a teacher watching them.

We’re allowed to learn whatever we please, however we please. Just because it’s the first try. They’ve basically given us our own server with blogging capabilities and a forum. Our job is to learn how to best use our server. The best way to post blogs and the best way to post in the forums. How to post pictures there. And eventually, how to post up podcasts and videos onto it.

Our ‘assignments’ are to keep a blog and a personal word document journal about how we figured each thing out. even if we just learned it off of one of the other students who possted earlier in the day. we just copy their instructions and cite them with their username.

So we’re hopefully proving that students can learn off eachother without having to be in the same place at the same time with a teacher preaching to them and making them take notes. That we don’tNEED to be at school to learn. That the internet can be used for good. And that in a few years we can hopefully learregular courses on the site. But for now it’s just for our technology classes… and only a select few of them too.

But If I get an A or a B my name get’s put on one of those plaques on the wall that nobody ever reads… though it’ll still be cool to be on one. XD

Sunday Night June 18, 2007

Welps. when School ended last Tuesday for Kiinu. All the children were immediately put together in one town. To “Jump right into the summer schedule.” Which Is logical, if the family in question is going to be keeping with this schedule.

So Kiinu was taken to her mothers house on Tuesday because it coincided with the way the summer was supposed to work. Tuesday to Saturday at Moms. and Saturday to Tuesday at dads. Saturday morning comes. and Kiinu finds out (because nobody in her house remembers to tell her anything) that after going to their fathers Saturday Night after the Kids Dance Recital. they would stay with him until Monday (not on the oh-so-important-to-use-immediately-schedule) and after that Monday. All of the Kids will be staying at their mothers in her town for the following Three Weeks.

This is not part of the schedule. And Kiinu couldn’t have been left with her father for the end of the week that she was at her mothers doing nothing but getting in the way as her siblings were still in school for that week.
