After watching Clarence Fisher’s presentation for the K12 Online Conference entitled Classroom 2.0 or You Live Where? I realised the importance of context. What really hit home with Clarence’s presentation is the impact he’s having on a small community and how much thinking and planning goes into his practice.

I’m a long way from being even nearly as effective as Monsieur Fisher, but I thought it might be an interesting exercise for people to see exactly where I’m coming from and an average day in my life. Or, to put it another way, to try and see my (teaching) life in an average day…

I’d like to see the following people do something similar to this. These are people whose blogs I read a lot and something along these lines would be great for context!

• Karyn Romeis (because I want to see how she gets time to do anything apart from blog and comment on other people’s)
• Dan Meyer (because he’ll almost certainly respond)
• Stephen Downes (because I want to see what he does all day…)
• Stephanie Sandifer (because I want to see if she can really be that dynamic in real life)
• Doug Noon (because I want to see some Alaskan scenery!)
