Book Club - Let the Great World Spin
I found a couple of videos on YouTube of Philippe Petit of his famous walk across the World Trade Towers, including video from the police helicopter. A couple of questions for your thoughts for Tuesday:
This book brings us into the lives of a dozen different fictional characters from many walks of life, from Park Avenue to hookers to computer hackers to radical monks. Why does Colum McCann embrace such a diverse tapestry of characters? Is it reflective of the all-encompassing nature of the city?
Could this book take place somewhere other than New York City and be as provocative?

Please reflect upon and then share your comments on the benefits you have derived from participation in the REAL Tech program at Loyola Academy. What about your participation has worked out the best for you? I am also interested in knowing how you feel the program has facilitated your meeting or exceeding ed-tech benchmarks, such as the National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers, in one or more of the following areas:
Facilitate and inspire student learning and creativity
Design and develop digital-age learning experiences and assessments
Model digital-age work and learning
Promote and model digital citizenship and responsibility
Engage in Professional Growth and Leadership
Implement the IPP, Ignatian Pedagogical Paradigm (LA extra credit!)
Further information about the standards can be found at:
