I have found one explanation that seems to satisfy people. I tell them it’s like driving a car at night. You never see further than your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way. --E.L. Doctorow

8. Your Comments: What You Learned
You know how you hear something, but you don’t believe it’s true until you actually experience it? IT HAPPENED TO ME! Writing=Thinking Thinking=Writing.
Reflecting on how we’ve grown throughout the program is great!!
Everyone is so insightful.
That profound and important learning can also be really chill-i.e., inquiry groups

9. Your Comments: What You Learned
Today, I reflected my big “take away” from ISI are-and was happy to be reminded that I’ve learned a lot-also, more about conferences & academic journals.
That I shouldn’t judge a book or a journal by it’s cover (or its layout and design)
I thoroughly enjoyed being able to read through each publication.
Journals are a whole new world I can’t wait to visit more often.

10. Your Comments: What You Learned
Learning a bunch about Google Docs and Google Tiles
I loved exploring the journals. I found a wonderful article about Journaling!
It’s wonderful to hear everyone’s experience. I’m so honored to be here.
Interesting debate on the impact of grades from my Inquiry Group work.

11. What Surprised You? What Questions Do You Have?
I want to start a creative project. If that’s not surprising, I don’t like the Beatles! If you’d told me this on June 19th at 8:59 a.m., I’d never believe it. “Creative Writing Club-”No way,” said Garth. “Way!” replied Wayne
I’m surprised by how much I’ll miss everyone!! And I’m already jealous of everyone who gets to do the WP next year.
How much I’ve come to enjoy writing in 4 short weeks!

12. What Surprised You? What Questions Do You Have?
How relaxing it is to be here at the ISI
Aja and Tasha writing didn’t get accepted I think I should start my own journal so I can put their articles in it!
How much I’ve learned about technology from my peers.
No surprises, just super thankful.
Enjoyed reviewing journals especially California English.

13. What Surprised You? What Questions Do You Have?
All professional journals have a therapeutic quality-teaching is a challenging job
Wonderful to hear everyone’s reflections on the program in general.

14. What Do You Want To Know More About?
When we’re having a reunion! (For fun )
I guess I’m still a little confused about the demo lesson in the fall conference but I’m sure there’s info somewhere in my mess of papers
