What I think about Blogs

I think that Blogs are a great way of using technology outside of the classroom. I have to admit, I didn't know much about Blogs until this class. I feel like with this class it has opened my eyes to think outside of the box. I think that Blogs could be like journals to each kid in the classroom. It would help me as a teacher to see what information each child is grasping during my class. It would also help me to know which ones need extra help. I think this is something I will take with me when I become a teacher!

On this website, I found a slideshow that I loved so I wanted to be able to share it with you. At the bottom of the slideshow just hit play to begin.

The NEW me

So far in this class, I feel like I know so much more about computers and some technology that will help me in my future classroom. I also think that with all the stuff I have learned so far, it will help me to be able to make learning more fun for the children in my class!

Quote

The number one benefit of information technology is that it empowers people to do what they want to do. It lets people be creative. It lets people be productive. It lets people learn things they didn't think they could learn before, and so in a sense it is all about potential.Steve Ballmer

Technology Joke

A man was mowing his lawn when he heard


-->
A man was mowing his lawn when he heard his neighbor, who happened to be a blonde, come out of her house. She opened her mailbox, looked inside and slammed it shut. She stomped her foot and went back inside. The man thought ''how weird.'' A few minutes passed and sure enough, the blonde came out of her house again, checked her mail box, stamped her foot and went back inside. The man stopped mowing and checked her mailbox to see what was so wrong with it. After seeing nothing, he went back to mowing just shrugging his shoulders. As soon as he heard her coming out again, he shut off his mowing machine and went up to her. ''What in the world are you doing, coming out here every five minutes?'' The blonde looked up at the man and said, ''Well, you see, there's this little voice in my house that keeps on saying, 'You've got mail,' but when I come out here to check, I don't have any.''

This is a website I found that talks about ten things that everyone needs to know. I found it very useful for me. My favorite part was the how to be creative. To me, I dont think I am very creative but this changed my way of thinking.

Technology sometimes makes me mad

Today, I found out an issue I have with technology. This morning when I woke up, I went to submit some homework for my Classroom assessment class. Well when I went to submit my work, it wouldn't open my files so I could submit my work. Now, I am afraid my work is going to be late. With technology, we can't always depend on it. I found this out the hard way!
