Google Reader Homework

Whoa.  There are a lot of people who have a lot to say out there in "internet land."  I tried numerous search ideas-historians, librarians, IB blogs, etc.  Dilemma time-what to add to my subscription list.  Who are these people?  My fear is adding some hate blogger, and then somehow I am connected to person a FBI watch list!  Kidding.

It's Wednesday 1/26, so I have four days (before the HW assignment is due) to find sources that I a) feel comfortable with and b) want to spend my time reading.

So, if you are reading this before Monday evening (2/1) and have a feed that you enjoy-send them my way!

Kathleen-My Tech Jedi

How do I use or want to use technology in my classroom?

Currently, I use technology  to deliver information-video, presentations, assignments, etc.  My goal is to become familiar enough with technology to have my students use technology to show me what they know!  I want to make sure that use of technology within my classroom has meaning--I don't want to use technology just because...

So, I'm taking this class to become a "tech jedi" so that I can use technology with my students in an organized, meaningful, productive and fun manner.  Wish me luck.

Farewell to ITEC 814 Fall, Hello to livelong learning...

This class was great!  Fun. Informative. Challenging. Great pace.  Awesome instructor.  


The best part of this class was being open to learning about technology.  Time to let go of control issues.  Time to spend a little time (productively) researching what is out there and available for me to use with my students.  Time to enter the 21st century.  Time to be a true advocate to address the issue of the digital divide...

"Survey says..."

Check out the muy basic survey that I created during class:
