Tara Waudby wrote a new post, What is the Intent of the AUP?, on the site Behind the Closed Door 1 week ago

I wrote my AUP with two of my colleagues also in this COETAIL Cohort, Matt and Justin. As we are all in the high school, we decided to try to upgrade and refine our current acceptable use policy, which has […]
Tara Waudby wrote a new post, Digital Citizenship = Global Citizenship, on the site Behind the Closed Door 1 week, 1 day ago

A few days ago, I had an interaction at work in which I was visibly upset, more so than I have been since my early days of impassioned response, and those days, I attribute to youth. This is not to say I am […]
Tara Waudby commented on the post, The Big Four – AU Project Course 2, on the site Chewing Over 1 week, 1 day ago

I love your initial question about intent. We also discussed this quite a lot in developing our AUP. Most of the samples were wordy and sounded like legal documents, so we created something with the intent to […]
Tara Waudby wrote a new post, Learning is Asking the Question, Not Finding the Answer, on the site Behind the Closed Door 1 week, 3 days ago

In a recent blog post, John Merrow writes, “Schools today must provide opportunities for young people to create knowledge out of the swirling clouds of information that surround them 24/7. You went to school […]
Tara Waudby commented on the post, Getting Lost, on the site Teacher Thompson 2 weeks, 1 day ago

I like your closing analogy about getting lost online. That’s a nice way of looking at it. Until this class, I spent very little time doing anything new online. After checking e-mail and Facebook, perhaps bank […]
Tara Waudby commented on the post, It’s because we’re a bunch of degenerates, on the site A Kick in the Head 2 weeks, 5 days ago

I am struggling to write the blog post addressing this question because in some regards, it is so simple. I completely agree with you that we must teach ethics in schools and I also agree that parents are key in […]
Tara Waudby commented on the post, Why Not Give It Away?, on the site Behind the Closed Door 4 weeks, 1 day ago

Thank you for all of your comments. Yes, I agree that there are many flaws with being too trusting and I am a private person in real life, so Internet privacy means a great deal to me. However, it would be nice […]
Tara Waudby wrote a new post, Why Not Give It Away?, on the site Behind the Closed Door 1 month ago

Almost immediately upon posting “A Fine Balance,” I started asking myself why I was so concerned about my Facebook privacy, particularly after viewing Everything is a Remix, Part 4: System Failure. In this video, […]
Tara Waudby wrote a new post, A Fine Balance, on the site Behind the Closed Door 1 month ago

I live in a society where privacy is visual. Women physically cover to maintain privacy, their right to say, don’t look at me. Does this give them privacy or just the illusion of privacy. Can we ever not be […]
Tara Waudby wrote a new post, Whose Footprint Is It?, on the site Behind the Closed Door 1 month, 2 weeks ago

As an administrator, I often deal with disciplinary issues that expand into the digital world. In fact, one of my most recent incidents involves Twitter, Photoshop, and shared passwords. Without saying anything […]
Tara Waudby commented on the post, But I’m Not Even That Interesting…, on the site A Kick in the Head 1 month, 3 weeks ago

As you say, you can never unshare…there are so many fine lines in life. For me, in this week’s blog post, I myself questioned referencing one of my examples, and yet, is there a point in which we ignore to […]
Tara Waudby wrote a new post, Creating a Community of Engaged Learners: Course 1 Final Project , on the site Behind the Closed Door 2 months ago

As an educator, my goal has always been to create an engaged classroom, and in my classroom, we are rarely silent. Rather, we work together, collaborate, communicate and gain understanding. As an administrator, […]
Tara Waudby commented on the post, Patient Problem Solving in Real Life, on the site Behind the Closed Door 2 months, 1 week ago

Hi Ben,
Great meeting you online. Yes, I remember several experiments in my classroom. I loved working alongside kids, trying to figure things out. I believe they gained a lot of great problem-solving and […]
Tara Waudby wrote a new post, Patient Problem Solving in Real Life, on the site Behind the Closed Door 2 months, 1 week ago

We recently had a bit of a communication mishap in our high school. All intentions were good; we just didn’t communicate well, which led to a series of frustrations amongst teachers. Luckily, all culminated in a […]
Tara Waudby commented on the post, Three Little Bops – Final Project, on the site Catching Up 2 months, 2 weeks ago

Great project. I used to teach English and this is an assignment I would love to do with my students. I am going to share it with the English department at my school. Thank you for sharing!
Tara Waudby wrote a new post, Shaping Change while Remaining Static, on the site Behind the Closed Door 2 months, 2 weeks ago

I have long felt that the office is the least technologically advanced place at school. As an assistant principal, I can influence change by advocating Smartboards, considering the BYOD movement, and providing […]
Tara Waudby commented on the post, Listen To The Experts, on the site Janette's Blog 2 months, 3 weeks ago

Your blog is aptly titled. Our students really are the experts and it is they that we have to design instruction for. Listening to their ideas will be illuminating. I also plan to talk to students this week, to […]
Tara Waudby wrote a new post, Creativity in the Digital Age, on the site Behind the Closed Door 2 months, 3 weeks ago

Several years ago, I read a book titled The Rise of the Creative Class. As a poet, the title intrigued me. Although, I don’t consider myself old, I grew up in a world where being creative was synonymous with the […]
Tara Waudby commented on the post, Technology: Helping This Old Dog Do New Tricks, on the site A Kick in the Head 2 months, 3 weeks ago

I really like this post, and how you sequence through the ideas presented in the article with examples from your own practice. I particularly like the ideas you present in “Doing New Things in New Ways.” How […]
Tara Waudby commented on the post, Yes, I changed the name of my blog, on the site Thinking is the best way to travel 2 months, 3 weeks ago

I love the name of your blog…thinking is the only way to live, but yes, also the only way to travel. Very cool nuances you invoke with this name.
