So, I am finally learning, understanding, and starting to see the connections between these separate courses, our action research, and the capstone to which we are headed. What I was seeing as separate highways reaching a destination from separate routes, is indeed more of a 6 lane highway that is becoming more focused; the lanes are merging. The bridge, by necessity cannot stay as the eastern end of the Bay Bridge into San Francisco. Maybe the better analogy would be the Golden gate bridge with it's movable, reversible lanes. My learning through readings, interactions with my cohort and teachers, and my action research in school needs to accommodate the complex interaction of all of these. Learning must have it's movable lanes of input and output. Sticking with the analogy, the bridge I am building cannot be a covered bridge. These blogs as well as our shared documents and cohort discussions show our learning as we progress. We are not to reach the other end of the bridge without anyone seeing our progress. In this way, we can do better for our students, schools, districts, and the larger community as well.AVID; Bloom’s

I liked the analogies you used for bridging. The graphics also were very engaging and tasteful for your topic. I agree with how our learning takes place. I feel it is through networking, blogs, discussions and presentations. I also believe we retain what we learn more fully when we collaborate and share as we do in this cohort.
