We had a beach party last night. Today everybody is nervous. I still wonder how do I manage to stay safe and sound with all these angry people trying to take over my computer...
Well, anyway, today we went DEAP(E)R in Designing, Encoding, Assembling, Publishing and Revising projects. This appears to be the framework of a good teaching process.
The first step is to create a visual concept, an immage of what you are going to do and hou you would like it lo look like in the end.
The other step, the one I think is the most important, is the Encoding process - you could move a mountain while designing, assembling and publishing а project but still it could be not of any use to anybody if he/she could not understand you because of lapses you might make in making the things understandable (decodable) to others.
Well, assembling and publishing seem easy when you have Internet and good experience working with the information sources there.
Eureka! I've invented the wheel! Whell, there was nothing to design, encode, assemble and publish about the wheel - it was a pure insight! But I sure have to revise if this is an actual wheel after all! So Revision is of course an important step - it's when you have to recount if the thing you have had in mind to do is the same thing you have actually done at the end. And if so - it's ok, but if not - one should go and check where exactly he/she went wrong in going DEAP(E)R... and hope not to sink...

Haha, you are all right. I'm asking for my self the same things - i want to play poker and i dont have much time for it cause of these students and much less computers in the lab... So, i think that this is great frame of team work, but i dont like frames cause i think that they kill's our creation for do something unusual and indipendently... What do you think? This can be just good way to work if the members in the group work in diferent way, or using different methods of work, and only think that i like here are the cronological steps... See you
Well, you are right to worry, because you know the story of those three - the eagle, the crab and the pike that wanted to take a cart out of a river - if you do not have any frame to operate in, you alone will just go doing the things chaoticly and not being adequate to other's you're in a group with if so. But - in other hand - of course frameworks restrain creativity, so we all have to look for the golden mean!
Go for it! ;)
