Welcome to EDST 20000 The History and Philosophy of Education. My name is Professor Pratt and I will be your instructor for the Maymester 2009 hybrid course. What is a hybrid course? A hybrid course is one that meets part of the time online and part of the time in class. This class will begin on Tuesday, May 12, 2009. We will conduct classes online through this blog Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. On Fridays we will meet at the PNC campus in Tech 214 from 9:00 a.m. -12:00 p.m.
This blog will be used as a learning tool to respond to course content and material, to take polls and collect data, and to provide you with information concerning the course such as syllabus, rubrics, class assignments, etc. Since this is a place where information is published please use correct grammar and spelling.
To get started here is the first blog post for you to respond to: Introduce yourself and share the HISTORY of your name. How did you get your name? Are you named after someone? Is there any special meaning to your name. This can include first, middle or last name...or any combination. How do you feel about your name? Do you have any nicknames, etc.?
If you have any problems using the blog please contact me via email at djpratt@pnc.edu or by phone at 219-785-5486 or 219-263-9760.
You're the BEST!
