Week 10

The internet is a valuable tool for students and teachers searching for information, ideals, graphics, sound recordings, videos, blogs, or interactives learning objectives. Teachers and students should familarize themselves with the variety of tools currently available. As an teacher I can take advantage of the internet by learning to create purposeful, and well designed web sites targeted at students, the parents of the students, other teachers and community members. I would teach technology in my classroom effectively to help my students take ownership of learning, and developing the practical and critical thinking skills necessary to better understand the world around them.


I would teach technology to transform my classroom from a teacher-centered environment to an exciting, empowering, exploratory environment that focus on student engagement in the learning process.I would use a digital media photography, by using digital cameras, camcorders,and podcasts, allowing the students to capture their own pictures. Podcasting in education will offer and be an exciting way for students to learn. Podcasts will consist of audio,or video delivered over the internet. I would use technology to enhance my students learning.

Week 9

Can all users be trusted to create resource information? For years many have always doubted the credibility of the web. For starters, how can you count on a source of information to be true on the internet? How can someone who is making a claim on a given topic prove their own credentials? Those two question have crosed m mind while navidating the web. The problem amplifies itself on the Wikipedia pages.

Wikipedia is one of the Internets most popular fact checking sites. But it is often manipulated by companies and individuals who are the subject of its entries. Virgil Griffithva graduate student of the California Institute of Technology, developed the Wikipedia Scanner. People such as the CIA, Vatican, Fox News, Undercover Agents, and Wal- Mart alters Wikipedia. All user cannot be trusted to create resource information. The problem came about when Wikipedia world became very public. anonymous users can sign on and create a new entry about any topic on wikipedia. In my opinion, I dont believe that Wikipedia can be trusted, I think that smoe day Mr. Griffith will come up with a plan to keep anonymous users from making cgahges to other peoples articles.

There are plenty of reason to have wireless in the classroom first of all, wireless internet can give the teachers access to store grades into their databases. Teachers can also place assignments notes,and worksheets on the internet for their classes. There are all sorts of resources for teachers and students. Wireless can be use in many capacities for teachers and student.


Wireless can give students the opportunity to gain experience with using the internet. Students can spend the rest of their lives in a multi tasking, technological driven world. They will need the information, and communication technology literacy in order to be successful in both, their professional and personal lives. Students can utilize blogs, wikis and other webs tools to enhance, and extend their students learning.

Week 7

In reading Karl Fischbowl's post, It is OK to be Technologically Illeterate.I can agree with the things he has to say about some teachers not knowing, and not willing to learn. I believe that all educators should achieve some kind of technological experience. That way they can be able to teach it, and encourage their students to learn about the different kind of technology in this modern world.I agree with the fact that, technoloy is in the world infact, technology is this world.

Technology have taking over, it is a big part of the everyday life. Teachers that doesn't know much about it should be ashame, and those that don't want to learn should be ashame as well. I can agree hat they shouldn't be teachinh in the the public, nor the private school's system. Yes the principals should be held accountable. Principals should make sure that each one of their are in some sort of tehnology learning program. I agree, that in order to teach something, we must first laern learn it ourselves.
