Thin Walls Revisited

January 31, 2008




I did some googling and read some of my classmate’s blogs and finally a light bulb went off for me to actually be able to write about something—or someone I know of. 

I think that thin walled classrooms mean classrooms where students can connect with other students who are not in the same classroom whether it is with students from a different school in the same area, or with students in another state, or another country.

 

Yesterday in the Maysville Ledger Independent, there is an article about Gertrudis Siguenza, a Spanish Professor who has been teaching online courses through Maysville Community and Technical College (MCTC) and also teaching at Augusta Independent Schools.  She will soon be going back to Spain, yet still plans to teach her online Spanish classes through Maysville Community and Technical College, and I think what she and MCTC are doing is a prime example of a thin-walled classroom….that is in my POV.
