A little about meMy name is Mr. Hentzen. I teach 7th and 8th grade science in Nebraska. After a not very successful year of teaching I decided to start gamifying my 8th grade class. I am now using this site to try to tell the story for that class and also as a place to reflect on our activities in class. I've never really done a blog before, so hopefully this isn't too horrible. Feel free to let me know of ways that I could improve.
There are a couple different pages on this site. "My Story" is the story of how Commander Helios, the leader of our game, gained his super powers. Commander Helios is also contributing his comments on activities in class on his "Commander's Log" page. The "Education Thoughts" is my place to record my own thoughts on education and a few other topics. This could include gamification, Catholic School education, Science education, among other things. |
