thank you for a good semester

I've been reading your blog posts and thinking about how hard this class is, initially, for all of us to get our heads around. It's the most diverse class I teach, in terms of including every kind of teacher major (or almost), and the connections to literacy are much clearer in some cases than others. What I appreciated so much about this class was that you were willing to look at literacy in different ways, making new connections to your subject field that I think will enrich you as teachers.

I know that made this class a challenge, especially for some, and I always respect those who meet a challenge head on. I think a lot of you are this way, and that aspect alone will help you be the expert teachers you will become. I also tried some new things in this class, like a class blog instead of individual ones and although some of you struggled with that as well as the wiki, you were all willing to give it a shot. So thank you.

My best wishes for the holiday season and a new year.
Dr. Dana
