Tech in SS with Eric, 1/16/07

15 minutes of writing

Classes started today so I did not write until right before going to sleep. I was very eager to skip today's session, especially since it was so late, but remembered my committment to my blog, my writing circle colleagues, and myself.

Though I wanted to work on the What Works chapter, I did not have the reviewers comments. So, instead I worked on SS and Tech. I also did not have the LoTi framework descriptions so was unable to write that section.

Eric emailed me a new conclusion so I added this into the text. I haven't spent any time writing it. I also worked on the transition between the new Moersch section and the set-up for the three sections. To address the concern of one reviewer, I explained a reason for having an extended "Starting Out Easy" section, but I'd like to re-visit this. It would be nice to find research to support my assertion that it is harder to start out than to work once you're on a roll with technology.

I gave some thought to the table (per comments by my reviewers at the Tara Grey presentation and reviewers suggestions on What Works). I'm curious if the the table might be better if broken into three sections and placing each section as a sidebar next to the corresponding text sections.

Though I will need to return to What Works tomorrow, when I return to this paper I would like to continue work on the Moersch section. I'd like to complete a first draft so I can start editing it before writing circle next Monday.
