FINAL POST WOOT

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DcE29xlFCJwdVgpK2BQn-KWf9dph0zUok7ig16U3LjQ/edit?usp=sharing Let’s talk about collaboration, let’s talk about compromise, let’s talk about how eerily similar all the English teaching students were and how desperately I wanted to work with them because I knew it would be so easy BUT that’s okay!

It was good for me because when I ask my students to do group work, they will butt heads. Someone will be dominant, some people will hang back, and some people will be all in.

SO I compiled a collection of a bunch of different time-lapse gifs. Some of them are flowers, some of them are weather, etc. I think the variety could be really beautiful and fun, and I think the essence of what a time-lapse gif can capture is perfect: it's a lot of progress captured in a just a small...
