AHHHHHHHH........

Well, this week went much much better. Having only one class makes school and life manageable that's for sure. This week we had to make our own podcast and I thought it was pretty cool. I didn't realize that podcasts were so easy to make once you figure out how to do it. I am finding that my semi-good knowledge of computers is really helping me in this class. This online class is not like any other one I've taken, basically because it circles around computers. I've taken health classes online but they were way different that's for sure. Well, I'm done typing today. SEE YOU NEXT WEEK!

Man, Last week was hectic...

I can honestly say, I am glad last week is over. I think most of my classmates would say the same thing. Having two classes at once was brutal. I am stoked to only have one class now so all my focus can go towards it. We all had presentations in our other class last week and besides all the stress it caused I thought it was a lot of fun. Last week showed all of us that we have many talented classmates. It's just a great feeling that this week I only have one class. Now, I can stop waiting to do all the classwork in ed. tech. on the weekend...

Using blogs in the classroom

Blogging rules? There's rules to blogging? There are according to the article Don't Feed the Trolls. I'm glad there are some set rules to this stuff. Basically, I'm going to use "I" throughout almost every blog. This blog is my opinion, that's all, it's not scientifically proven...Yet. The most important rule in my opinion though is avoiding name calling and labeling groups. BLOG WITH RESPECT!
Man, I really like the Sargent Park Math Zone blog. It's fairly easy to follow and is displayed great. Using a blog for a class would be so handy. Before looking at this blog or reading Don't Feed the Trolls I would never have even thought about using a blog. All of my students at anytime, anywhere could check out when assignments are due or if anything was assigned on day where they missed class. I think a blog site like Sargent Park would save both me and my students so much time. There is definitely a lot of CHATSPEAK going on here!
