    Computing Integrated Teacher Education (CITE) @ CUNY

    Andrea Zakin replied to the topic Module 1 - Lehman

    When I first received the cards, I thought I’d never be able to make decisions from among them because I wasn’t sure what my interests were. But then I started separating out my choices, and the reasons for my selections became clear –creative self-expression and story-telling (#16, 18, 30, 35, 43) resonated for me. I also enjoyed the game of ta…

    Andrea Zakin replied to the topic Module 6 — Lehman College

I’ve observed assistive technologies help students organize their thoughts, integrate visual, speech and auditory processing, provide i…[Read more]

I appreciated the drawing quality and the humor inherent in the depiction of extreme perspective! I…[Read more]

    Andrea Zakin replied to the topic Module 3 — Lehman College

    When I read the word, “Loopy,” I envisioned spiral loops in my head so I had to go with that one. I liked moving back and forth so easily between word and image, and tried, but didn’t quite succeed in creating a spiral image. As a way to ‘embrace complexity’ (my module 2 topic), I would have liked to make it less linear. However, I did capture m…[Read more]

    Andrea Zakin replied to the topic Module 2 - Lehman
