This summer, specifically today, I begin my stint as a student, working toward a certificate in Educational Technology from Rutgers University.  I know how helpful this will be for me not only because I will learn more about what is available for use with my students (perhaps you?), but more importantly, I will BE a student, subject to the frustration and demands that extra work and commitment can bring when it seems that my life is already full-to-bursting.  The first online class, “Introduction to Teaching with Digital Tools,” opened today,  Memorial Day, and already the professor has introduced an important infographic that bears on the work we will do in 151.  I am sharing this journey on my blog, so my students will know that life is an always-learning adventure, “a marathon, not a sprint,” in the words of Angela Duckworth.
