I have gotten throug...Thank you for your post, Joe.<br />I have gotten through Ch 1 also and underlined quite a bit of it. I teach high school, so much of what they are talking about relates directly to my day-to-day classes. However, like you, many other things were jockeying for my attention. I underline (actively read), not only to keep track of what I feel is important, but also to keep my head in the game. I have played around a little with doing this digitally, but for now, I love the feel of a book in my hands and a pen in between my teeth, at the ready. For this reason, I am excited about the Crocodoc tool the authors mention on page 7. I want to play around with it and see if it could be useful for my students as they research and form their capstone research papers and projects.<br />I liked the brief overview that they give starting on page 16. Much as you described, I am busy and really want to focus on the parts and pieces that will benefit my practice and thus my students. I feel like there will be a bit or piece of value in each chapter, if my underlining can be trusted. :)<br />At any rate, I will be glad to have read this book. I like the way you phrased that. And I am glad to be reading it in a group with which I can process and evaluate the information. Viva la critical reading, digital or otherwise! <br />Peace for your reading.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02981488647282350358noreply@blogger.com
