"Dunno" Where Thursday Post Went: Here It Is Again!

My cat, Katie, took her annoying tummy perch earlier than usual this morning, alerting me to this day being Thursday and I’d better get my web log - she’s so technical -written before Leadership Council.  Of course, I did not adhere; so, I’m late. Anyone who missed the Illinois Conference yesterday should be sure to delve into the archives, since they will be available for several months to us.  Alied Health and Nursing faculty certainly got  a variety of successful mobile device uses for instruction – from field work to case studies.  I’m still thinking of how I can adapt the Google Maps scavenger hunt activity presented by both a librarian and Geography professor.  In fact, I found a similar use in the Presidio Commons website for mapping the sites visited by an author, tracing the narrative events.  From texting announcements to polling surveys with mobile devices, the uses are tremendously rich resources for us all.  Session 6 is also a must.  Although it will take me six months or more to explore the numerous “apps” introduced by the presenters and colleagues from around the country, I’m excited, and so will you be, as well.
