TimeToast
For the Timetoast Timelines assignment I chose my daughter Rian as my topic. I have been meaning to get her scrapbook started and record all the major events in her life. Since I haven't tackled that yet, I had all of these random notes in my cell phone. Timetoast was a perfect way for me to organize all of the important events and milestones in her life thus far.

Survey
After sending a survey to many of my fellow students, I was able to get a grasp at the type of schedule they had this semester. The majority of my classmates were taking a work load of 15+ credits and the majority of Elementary Education majors were following the old program. Nearly all of my classmates had outside obligations in addition to school. These obligations were inclusive of: kids, work, church involvement, coaching, volunteering, babysitting, sports, animals, pregnancy, campus organizations, and relationships. The next question I asked was if this was their favorite class, and out of 53 students I only got one yes. After this, I asked my classmates if they had to teach a math lesson what would they prefer to teach it on a whiteboard, smartboard, or chalk board. The results showed that most students would like to use a smartboard or whiteboard, and only a couple of students would use a chalk board. Finally, my last question revealed that this was a very stressful semester for many students.

Week 12 April 11
The preceding video is one of the comments for kids I was assigned to in EDM 310. I love hearing the sounds of children singing. I also enjoyed hearing a foreign song that I was familiar with sang. Thanks to blog posts and youtube I was able to actively participate as part of an audience to children in another part of the world.
During this Spring semester I visited Jonathan's(a student at Avoca West School)blog which described a book he had read. I, along with many others were able to read his book review because it had been posted online. Posting his book review online has many advantages, he was able to use spell check and virtually free his writing of errors, and he was also able to get feedback from many readers.
To view his report follow this link: http://avoca37.org/13jonathans/2010/01/05/al-capone-shines-my-shoes-book-review/comment-page-1/#comment-8
Finally, I think the greatest advantage of posting student's blogs was that I, as a student, was able to connect to other learners in different areas. Although my writing may not be error free, I know that it has greatly improved grammatically. In addition to this, nothing makes me feel happier than children and I loved seeing, hearing, and reading about what they were learning.

Week 11 April 4
I read Mr. Chamberlain's blog, watched Kaia's video summary, and read her father's blog. Going out to explore nature and using technology to capture the moment was a moving experience. At the age of three Kaia was able to demonstrate her knowledge on the material she just learned. This information was then shared with classrooms across the globe including Mr. Chamberlain's.
Although Kaia is a typical child, what occured to me while viewing her video summary was how an assignment such as this could be used for special needs students to demonstrate thier mastery of subject matter. If a child has trouble expressing themselves through their writing, Kaia gave an excellent example of an alternative assingment. She was able to show us what she learned, and how she learned it even though she is still illiterate.
In addition to this, I also enjoyed the way one child's experience has had such a large impact on many other children and even adults. Who would have guessed a three year old could stir up so much knowledge and incentive.

Week 10 March 28
Morgan Bayda, a teacher in Saskatchewan, describes her feelings and reaction to the video "An Open Letter to Education" by Dan Brown. She often felt cheated, frustrated, and un-encouraged in her education. Dan Brown describes his journey at the University of Nebraska, which eventually led to his decision to withdrawal from the university and education system altogether.
I would like to start by stating that I understand Brown's position, but dropping out is a large measure. Personally, no matter the frustrations of the education system I must march on! However, I don't know all of the details surrounding his situation and it may have been right for him.
In addition to this, I think Dan Brown made many valid points throughout his presentation. One's access to education has changed drastically throughout the years. Information can be found and the price if not free, is minimal. With all of this information, one would think that educators would use this to their advantage. Teachers should be using their resources and finding new and exciting ways to present information.
If all the teachers who taught because it was truly a passion of theirs, I think it would solve a lot of problems. First of all, all the teachers who are unemployed and willing to learn new things could have a position. In addition to this, all the teachers who made the education process miserable could do something they enjoyed.
In conclusion, along with Morgan Bayda, I was able to connect and relate to the video "An Open Letter to Education". I loved Brown's enthusiasm and powerful message.

Week 8 March 12
1. ALEX
ALEX is an acronym for Alabama Learning Exchange, it is a website with different links to things such as Alabama course of study, lesson plans, podcasts, and more. When you go to the lesson plans link, it allows you to choose from every subject, grade level, and objective. Once you have selected the information for the lesson plan, a bunch of different lesson plans show up. You are then given many different options for this lesson plan.
In addition to this, the podcast section of the website gives the user a list of subjects. Upon choosing a subject, the user is then shown the top podcasts for that subject.There are many different interviews, and lectures to choose from.
I believe that this would be a very useful tool when I begin teaching. One reason I feel this way, is because I have been worried about coming up with so many lesson plans. To just be able to go online and borrow a lesson plan is such a great tool. Along with this, I like the idea of being able to enrich my lesson plan by selecting a podcast that relates to the material.
2.ACCESS
ACCESS is an acronym for Alabama Connecting Classrooms, Educators, &Students Statewide. This website has many different resources such as Mathtype,Chemlab, Alabama Virtual Library, and Advanced Placement prep tests. ACCESS allows students to get the classroom experience from the comfort of their home. This allows many more students to receive an education that otherwise may be impossible.
In addition to this, it allows high school students to take at least one distant learning course during their high school years. It also gives students the opportunity to expand their education with a variety of electives. Access to these courses allows students to personalize their education to meet their goals.
I believe that this would be a useful tool because students are no longer limited to walls of the classroom. I personally, wanted to graduate high school early and I went through a lot of obstacles. My school didn't offer additional courses at times that would allow me to finish early. If I were able to use a tool such as ACCESS in high school, I would have been able to graduate early and get a head start on my college education.

As a student, I would hate to write essays to evaluate my knowledge. But as a future teacher, I think the layout you have is an excellent idea. Normally I do pretty well on writing assignments, but when I'm pressed for time I start to get frustrated and confused at what direction my writing should take. Your idea of having a layout where the students know how many main ideas and supporting details to have is a great way to organize one's writing. I think it also makes the whole writing and essay process a whole lot easier.

Randy Pausch described several teaching methods he used throughout his career. I really enjoyed the video and I found that he was a very agreeable person.
One of which he stated was to have students think they are learning something else. He said that he would have million of students having fun while learning something hard.Alice The Infinitely Scalable Dream Factory, was a great way to teach students to program computers while they just think they are making videos and movies.
He also described that when he was younger and played football he had a coach who "rode him a whole practice". The assistant teacher later approached him and commented that, it was only because he had faith him. you should only worry when you are doing something wrong and no one corrects you. This would mean that they had given up on you.
Since the program he taught was a double masters program, he said there was no books. By the time they had reached him, they probably read every book in the library. Learning in this program, was all hands on. I think this is really neat because it is hard for me to learn something if I can manipulate it and physically put my hands on it.
Finally, I think the best thing he said was that you should never loose the child like wonder. I think the basis of his teaching philosophy would be that if you're not having fun it's not being taught properly. I say this because, I think the root of who Randy is would be a joyous and fun person, and he applies this to his teaching.

Week 6 Feb. 21
1. While exploring Dr. Alice Christie's website, there were many things that captivated my attention. Being an art lover, her photography was my favorite section of her site. Tulips, farmers market, birds, and wildlife are all images that Dr.Christie photographs. Her photographs are filled with brilliant colors and are focally soft.
There are many ways in which an educator could use Dr.Christie's site for educational purposes. For example, if I were teaching a biology lesson I might incorporate the photographs of tulips to depict the different segments of a flower. This is a way to integrate both art and technology into the classroom.
2. iTunes University is a way in which universities are able to upload audio and video content for their students to watch. They can also watch uploads from univerities such as Yale, Stanford, and Berkeley. Students are then able to download these item for later use.
iTunes University would be a great tool that is excessible to many students like myself and it could be used for enrichement as well. According to blooms taxonomy of higher education, knowledge is the most basic type of learning. Instruments such as iTunes University could provide students with information that could allow them to actually understand the content. When we are later evaluated the information would be retained.
http://www.apple.com/education/itunes-u/what-is.html
3. Technological tools such as the ipod have found themselves in the hands of teachers and in classrooms around the globe. There are many uses and ways to integrate this technology into the classroom. According to Susie Meserve author of iPods in the Classroom, "In first grade, students are listening to their reading at their own pace then retelling the story using the voice recorder." http://www.schoolcio.com/ShowArticle/1014
When Duke University coducted an experiment distributing 1600 20GB Apple iPods equiped with Belkin Voice Recorder technology to incoming freshmen the findings were astounding. "Audio-intense courses reported that the iPod increased the frequency and depth of student interaction with audio course content through portible and flexible access offered by the iPod"(duke.edu). Finding such as this were very common throughout the experiment and it makes me wish I had an iPod.http://cit.duke.edu/pdf/reports/ipod_initiative_04_05.pdf

Week 5 Feb. 14
Wikipedia, the encyclopedia anyone can edit, is both its greatest strength and greatest weakness. the editor of the article can be identified by the IP address from which it was edited. This effects the reliability of Wikipedia, because a person with no knowledge on a subject can post information as factual or even a bias corporate owner can enter information in which it favors his company. However, this can be a good thing because an article is constantly being revised and revisited. In the case that one was able to see where the editions were coming from, this would allow the reader to know whether the alterations were bias or even credible.
What I've Learned This Year
Mr.Clung's article describes different things that are important to the education process. First of all, one should "read the crowd". The students should be the focus of the lesson and should be developed to best fit that group. Next, the teacher should "be flexible". Things will not always get done in the manner that they were antisipated and stressing over it won't make things better. "Communicate" to the students to allow a strong teacher student relationship. "Be reasonable"- set high standard but be understanding when the students fall short. Those are a couple of the important things to remember while teaching.

Week 4 Feb. 7
For the assignment I chose"Integrating ICT into the MFL classroom: The benefits of podcasting in the classroom", as the tool to aid me into the creation of my own podcast. This website provided a video podcast with a lot of useful information.
For example, in the film they created a scenario in which a child is sick and they were able to view their study guide from the comfort of their home. In addition to this, it explained how podcasts fits into Blooms Taxonomy and encourages higher level thinking. I also agreed with how they stated that it encourages creativity. I have seen so many different approaches to podcasting and I still don't know which approach I will chose.
In addition to this, I agree that the process is easily learned and proves to be a very helpful tool. Although not all children have computer and Internet access, it still is a great idea to make the links available.
