Roberts CEP 882 Blog: Imaginative Bridges 12 - "Fashion"
http://robertscep882blog.blogspot.com/2013/04/imaginative-bridges-12-fashion.html
Roberts CEP 882 Blog. Sunday, April 7, 2013. Imaginative Bridges 12 - "Fashion". Imaginative Bridges 12 - "Fashion". Fashion creates a sense of belonging and of fitting in. Most people and especially students want to fit in and be part of the group. Dressing like others in the group makes you look like you fit in and helps to make you feel like part of the team. You need to look the part to fit in and every team has a common uniform of sorts. Team photo post card sent as a thank you note to our supporters.

Roberts CEP 882 Blog. Wednesday, March 13, 2013. Immaginative Bridges - 9. Immaginative Bridges - 9. Using video in the high school robotics class. I've learned quite a bit while making these short videos for CEP 882 and I wanted to get my students into the act as soon as possible and before we left for Palau. One of my goals for this year was to create a short documentary about our project. I think that may now be possible. Here are the introduction videos created by my students in class:. I think that ...

Roberts CEP 882 Blog. Saturday, February 23, 2013. Immaginative Bridges - 8 "Space". How do we create a compelling space for learning and teaching? Not much different than a prison. And, yes I actually worked in an office that was in located in the former state prison in Jackson, Michigan before it was turned into a National Guard Armory. Although, the Army National Guard gave me more leeway in choosing how I painted the walls in my office than my current school district allows me. In a perfect world tho...

Roberts CEP 882 Blog: 2 Minute Moment 3
http://robertscep882blog.blogspot.com/2013/04/2-minute-moment-3.html
Roberts CEP 882 Blog. Sunday, April 14, 2013. 2 Minute Moment 3. 2 Minute Moment #3. Two minutes really isn't enough time to explain why this is a compelling experience for me. As I stated in the video, before becoming a teacher I sent 20 years in the Army. As a sergeant in the Army I was responsible for taking care of soldiers. I feel that the U.S. has an obligation to take care of its military men and women. Being in BentProp is sometimes explained as kinda like being in an Indiana Jones movie. I am ge...

Roberts CEP 882 Blog. Sunday, January 27, 2013. 2 Minute Moment Project #1. This is my first attempt at creating a video.

Having a real audience and talking about something that you have experienced and care deeply about helps to make the experience more compelling for both the audience and the speakers. Over the last y...

Roberts CEP 882 Blog: Imaginative Bridges - 10 "The Hook"
http://robertscep882blog.blogspot.com/2013/04/imaginative-bridges-10-hook.html
Roberts CEP 882 Blog. Friday, April 5, 2013. Imaginative Bridges - 10 "The Hook". Imaginative Bridges - 10 "The Hook". When presenting my projects, even before this class I have described the robots as the "hook" that draws the students in. The class becomes about much more. But, you've only got about 10 minutes at the beginning of the semester to grab their attention or you're going to be fighting to get it for the next eighteen weeks. It all starts with the "Hook." But, then the real work begins.
