I am always amazed to find out about the geographical diversity among my MET classmates. This is my fourth course in the program; I have done three of the core courses so far.
I signed up for this class because it was the only option available to me for the fall semester. I was reluctant at first because there is little that I despise more than technology businesses scooping up the scarce dollars of public education without bringing any improvement in student’s learning. After reading the outline, I realized that the ultimate goal of a venture in learning technology is not necessarily to make money but can also strive to maximize learning opportunities. Teaching in a small rural school, where opportunities are limited, I can now see how this course can help me in my practice. I am now looking forward to it.
In the picture is my wife and one of our sons on Clearwater lake (practically in our backyard). We have two sons at home, as well as another son and a daughter who are all grown up.
Hi Sylvain,
Nice to see you again. Will look forward to your always very insightful thoughts and unique perspectives. Love the photo.
Cheers,

Hello Sylvain. Nice to meet you. I look forward to learning with you. Beautiful country.
Dale
Hi Kevin,
Good to see you too.
I also enjoyed your contribution from the last course, and I am looking forward to some more.
Sylvain
Wonderful picture Sylvain! Great to see another familiar name! I look forward to working with you again this term!
Are you fishing in the lake too? I haven’t had any luck in our big lake fishing, but the smaller lakes around us have been good to me lately. Your canoe looks so peaceful.

Hi Lois,
Yes fishing is good in the right places on the lake. Fishing was pretty good overall this year. I wonder if there is a connection with the amount of wasps we had.
I am guessing you teach at KLO. If so, say hi to your librarian for me; she is from Clearwater, and I work with her parents.

Hi Sylvain,
It’s really nice to meet you. As a transplanted British Columbian living in Texas, I truly appreciate the beautiful picture. I miss BC a lot, and that’s just one of the reasons why.
Brendan
Hi Sylvain,
We live in a truly beautiful country do we not? I think it’s really necessary for us to maximize learning opportunities especially for those living in rural areas or in countries where access to quality education is limited. Looking forward to exploring this in more depth with you.
