Another Possible Fit

Started the school week with kids and had another discussion with a teacher about Globaloria. Mr. Mullens teaches Forensic Science. We discussed the possible fit of that course with a PBL approach such as the one Globaloria uses. He seemed interested.

Also, I spoke with Alexia and Qianna, both seem really psyched to get back to the game design, try out the new curriculum, and even do some research.

Hope everyone else is having as good a start to the school year.

First day back at school

Today we started back as educators at Capital High School. I found out that I will be teaching one Environmental Earth Science class. Since I think this will be a great fit for a PBL approach, I have began a discussion with my Curriculum AP and the other Environmental Earth Science teacher about the possibility of fitting it into a Globaloria setting as well.

Everyone seemed very open to the idea, now just to see how it can be mapped out with CSOs.

Gearing up for school...

The countdown is getting short, just 2 days til I start back at school. We have limited amount of prep time in our rooms but I feel very confident. I have already laid out a tentative calendar of events, activities, and labs for both my advanced biology and dual credit biology classes. I am very excited about that as well as starting fresh with the new Globaloria syllabus, it looks amazing and so much better for my students. I even have started my own game design project for this year called The Econauts: Invasion of the Living Sludge.
