Saturday Class

That was a very fun way to handle class. It was really interesting to see how technology can be integrated seamlessly into the education process. First, we have a video to watch, then a power point presentation (with audio!). To show that we were paying attention to the presentation, we get to cruise around and check out some web pages and write a quick editorial about them.

This is a great example of what we can offer to teachers for a collaboration. How cool would it be to create a power point that the teacher can use with either the entire class or for special needs students on a case-by-case basis? How else can we use the technology to help the teachers or ourselves make life (and teaching) easier?

The next obvious question is how can I use technology right now to help my survive this next year?

Tressy I am having a good laugh right now. I just posted to you something like...
I'm giving you a new nickname Scotty... the trekkie with the sense of humor. Then I said something like... have you thought of having a mid week tech night for some of us because sometimes it's just a matter of us learning to click on the right button...THEN I somehow deleted the post after I posted it!! HA!It's really not funny but kinda sad!!!!!!!!!!!!
