I have lived in the world of typewriters and laptops. AOL and Instagram. I still do not feel 100% confident when using technology. I am comfortable with the repetitive aspect of it, but to understand sites in all of its entirety…no. I know that I under-utilize the sites that I visit and the insight that can be gained from understanding their…[Read more]

One of the goals that resonated with me was: Push back on white mainstream assimilative schooling. Seek to affirm, build on, extend learners’ linguistic and cultural practices.

Compared to yours…Mine is…No comment. I am sooo stealing this! Bravo

I enjoyed this! I already see how I can use this as an artifact for students who want to journal their experiences while student teaching. They can even add pictures. Dope!

Hello, my name is Michele Bonna (she/her) and I am an adjunct lecturer in the Teacher & Learning Department at BMCC. I did not realize how much I would struggle to understand this site, but I believe I am slowly getting the hang of it. I am curious about the other digital platforms.
