Comments
What did you like most about this instructor and course?
- I was very interested in the topics covered. I liked the instructor's willingness to help outside classroom time.
- The connectivity between theory, thought, and extension; between colleagues and content and outside and back again.
- I found the practical examples & applications of ideas to be the most helpful with regards to my own practices (leaning to use Google Reader etc...).
- He had good energy+enthusiasm for each class and was well-prepared.

- I liked that he was very patient with me, willing to let us try new things, and had a sense of humor. I did not expect to enjoy this class nearly as much as I did; I learned a ton.
- It pushes us outside our comfort zone. It challenges our own functional, critical, rhetorical, and networked literacies.
- The introduction to new media platforms.
- He constantly stimulated my thinking. I enjoyed doing, creating the Ignite Presentation. It pushed me forward.
- The introduction to new ideas - usable - for my classroom, and the instruction time dedicated to teaching us these new tools.
- I enjoyed that the class consistently gave me new ideas to integrate technology into teaching. Also, the instructor was available and always willing to help with anything we needed.
- Very creative and out of the ordinary. Very supportive. I learned a lot of applicable skills in academic work and for my job.
- Despite momentary frustrations, everything (reading, projects, discussions) came together meaningfully.
What did you dislike most about this instructor and course?
- I didn't like the audio comment file. (P2) I prefer something that is easier to refer back to.
- —
- I would have liked the P3 reflection to be more of an ongoing reflection-Something we discussed on day 1 or 2 and work on the whole semester-this would make it seem much less daunting.
- Not really sure. Sometimes explanations and expectations were awkward?

- I think for me the early execution/"preparedness" of assignments was overwhelming. I can see where it could be advantageous, but in a world of 60+ hour work weeks, other classes, etc. at times it felt like too much too soon.
- P1 was intentionally vague, I would have liked more exposure/instruction about the platforms to help me understand them.
- Reading was a bit heavy at times.
- Not really dislike just found almost overwhelming was all the reading.
- The pace. - I now we are under time limits - and maybe this is actually a plus - but I always felt like more time could be given (a rush to get through the many great ideas.)
- I would have liked more time for class discussion surrounding the reading we did.
- The deadlines were very rigid.
- My least favorite reading was Kelly's book from beginning of the semester.
What constructive suggestions do you have for this instructor or course?
- None, I really liked the instructor and the course, and he put up with my bantering pretty well.

- —
- Try to incorporate more possibilities and options for non-full time grad students.
- —

- —
- Keep challenging our thinking—very valuable course that I will carry with me in many ways.
- A better balance of required reading-time devoted to specific discussion, as well as more practical application of the new media in the classroom would be helpful and interesting.
- I liked the layout/structure of the course.
- Really fabulous. I really like the humourous presentation style and expectations. Clear boundaries and expectations.
- It would have been helpful to have certain points during the semester to discuss the goals and expectations of P1. It would have also been good to recap P2. I wanted a little more than just turning in the project and being done.
- More courses like this to help us to incorporate technology in the classroom and be able to teach online. Thanks.
- I found the course schedule online often difficult to read-consider reformatting.

- Although I loved the practical applications I found the reliance on theory to be incredibly helpful it getting me to understand and articulate my own thinking regarding technology and digital literacies.
- Possibly work on more ideas that could be more practically incorporated into educators daily work and practices?
