I'm suddenly feeling as if I just stepped out of the spaceship into a new world and am wondering how I could ever orchestrate the use of the new technology available. The MP3 Player sounds familiar only because I have two college kids. I've always wanted to get one but just haven't taken the time. Maybe I'll do that soon.
After reading the information, I can see how useful the Podcasts and wiki sites can be for educators, students, parents, etc. I love the idea of having the classroom environment available for parents to participate in via the podcast. Also, having everyone involved in the student's education connected (peer to peer, teacher to teacher, teacher to administrator, librarian to school calendar) only can make learning stronger and easier.
I think that after I am comfortable with creating podcasts, blogs and whatever wiki sites are, I probably will try to take advantage to enhance communication and learning. In the past, I have put into practice new ideas (classroom webpage) once I understood them so I'm looking forward to learning more about all of this.

I love my Apple iPod. I'd really like to have an iPod Touch, but can't justify spending more $$$.
ReplyDeleteIf I know you, by the end of this school year you will have pod casts avaliable for your parents! You jump right and use new things all of the time!
ReplyDeleteI am amazed with all of the things that are avaliable for educators to use with their students and parents! I think that this class is opening my eyes to a new world!
I might:) but if it's involving money, I won't. This is my year to be a thrifty teacher.
