So, what would I say to one of my students at a time like this? What would Ms. Michelle do?

STAGE TWO: Reflection

and Re-Framing

+Chip, how can you change or improve this experience?

REFLECTION REFRAMING I am afraid of failing I will not grow without

confronting this experience My hopes are high I love doing some things on

the computer… I will learn to use

contemporary software I can do this

I will be able to use these skills in my work

I will be able to create impactful presentations

I will become more comfortable with computers

I will have new skills Just Breathe… I have emotional intelligence,

the computer does not!

+

The only way to learn to do anything, is to begin, and then practice, practice, practice.

STAGE THREE: Experimentation

and Practice

+

+

OK, I am feeling surprised an amazed that with practice and focus; you can learn to use software faster than you thought.

STAGE FOUR: Unexpected Successes

+Everything takes more time than you think. I never considered that this Mind Map would take over 20 hours to make!

+Experimenting:Using Sound and Video

+Peruvian Holiday

A Video Experiment

+

I will get farther if I just relax and try my best. I’ll simply choose to be happy and enjoy myself.

STAGE FIVE:

No More Fear – Seeking Creativity

+How do I share this knowledge?

+

+oo

+ No More FEAR

It’s time for new expectation
