2019 CCCC presentation
Unfortunately, I cannot attend CCCC in person this year for health reasons, as I recently discovered I have thoracic arthritis in my back and am currently dealing with pain management.

Here's the original pattern from Renae: Here's how I modified the pattern for a face-to-face Fundamentals... Continue Reading →

I did like having the ability to write and erase as needed, but I found that this approach made me a bit sloppier in my work.... Continue Reading →

I was inspired by the "Blended Learning--Flipped Classroom Pattern" and the "Build On It Term Paper Pattern" from the LEM library (see images below for reference). In addition, I've identified...
