• Introduce yourself with your name, college, role(s)
• Share the rationale cards you kept in your hand all the way to the end of the game. Why did you keep these to the end? Why did you discard particular cards?
• What connections can you make between the values you reviewed and the examples from people’s digital lives?
• How did you interact with the game? What worked / didn’t work about our game prototype? Did you follow the rules as written? Did you “tinker” with the algorithm (rules) of the game? If so, how?

The five cards I chose were #35, 34, 15,  41 and 45.  They reflected my experience as a principal and the steps I took to teach my teachers about the importance of reaching and teaching “all” students from the place those students were at when they entered their classrooms.  The cards also reflected the need for my teachers to understanding the varying cultures that our school had among the families enrolled.  Because of the large number of special needs and Ell’s in the school, I think I was drawn to these particular cards.  I think I also was able to connect my card choices to Value number 6 – School Reform and Improvement.  I tried to implement programs, ideas, etc. from the impact that data practices like data collection methods, analysis, etc. had on teacher knowledge

Hi, I am Anita Ferdenzi, Education professor at Queensborough Community College.

The cards I chose are #43, 34, 18, 30 & 35. The “why” expressed in these cards resonate with my view that teacher preparation programs can effectively prepare future teachers to meet the needs of all students through authentic learning projects that employ digital literacies.

During the process of skimming through the cards I found that the pile grew when I sorted them according to my general beliefs about teaching and learning. However, the task of discarding cards became easier when I read through the  cards for a second time through the lens of the  valuable learning outcomes in a particular project. This process assisted me in identifying a common thread running throughout the 5 value cards I finally selected.
