Day 12 February 25,2010

Today in class we created a Hypermedia Quiz on Powerpoint. I think that this was a really fun activity. We came up with our own question, mine was "Which of these colors is a primary color?" I think that this activity fits under Initiative & Self-Direction. This fits under the topic working independently because we monitor, define, prioritize and complete tasks without direct oversight. I think that this activty would be good to use in my future classroom because it would help prepare students for a test or quiz. The students could prepare a hypermedia quiz on a topic such as science and then switch quizs to help each other study for the quiz. This would be great to get the children interactive with each other, and to get them excited about learning.

Day 11 February 23,2010

Today in class we were involved in collaborative story writing with fifth graders. The fifth graders started writing a story, and we had to add on to it. This is a good activity because it helps to give them ideas of where to take their story to next. Each Indian has either 3 to 4 people who are commenting on their story, and giving them ideas. Then each fifth grader will pick which comment they liked best to add on to their story. I think that this activity fits into the Life and Career Skills under Flexibility and Adaptability by incorporating feedback effectively. I think that this would be a good project to be involved in when I become a teacher because it will get my students involved with sharing ideas to each other. Also, they could get ideas from other children from different schools. This would be a good way to get students more excited about writing and to get them more involved.

Final Photo Story

Day 10 February 18,2010

Today we uploaded our photo story to youtube, and then posted it in our blog. Our rough draft of the photo story was due today. We are supposed to post comments on our classmates photo stories. I think that this activity meets standard 1d. By creating a photo story, we are modeling collaborative knowledge by engaging in learning with students, colleagues, and others in face-to-face and virtual environments.

When I Become a Teacher

Day 9 February 16,2010

Today in class we were asked to make a photo story titled "When I Become a Teacher." In this photo story, we had to use a quote about teachers and learning, use at least five pictures, and add music and text. The quote I used was " Teachers who inspire realize there will always be rocks in the road ahead of us. They will be stumbling blocks or stepping stones; it all depends on how we use them." I thought that this was a very inspiring quote. The ISTE NETS standard that this activity best fits is 2b. Standard 2b says that teachers develop technology-enriched learning environments that enable all students to pursue their individual curiosities and become active participants in setting their own educational goals, managing their own learning, and assessing their own progress. I think that this would be a great project to use in my future classes. This would help students to be more creative and use their own originality to create a project of their own.

Day 8 February 11,2010

One activity that I have done outside of my school life was a class on health choices. Over the summer I worked at Energy Express and part of our community service project was having a class on how to make healthy foods and snacks. By hosting this class, I used standard 5d. Standard 5d says that teachers contribute to the effectiveness,vitality, and self-renewal of the teaching profession and of their school and community. By doing this community service project, we were helping the community and the school, by using a power point presentation to show which choices they could choose for a heathlier life and meal. I had a lot of fun with this project, and everyone seemed to enjoy the class.

Day 7 February 9,2010

One activity that I did in first grade that helped me to meet one of the ISTE NETS-T was playing math and English games on the computer. The standard that this activity meets is Standard 2A. By using standard 2a, the teacher designed relevant learning experiences that incorporated digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity. I really enjoyed learning how to apply my math skills by using a game on the computer. I think that this would be a really good idea to use when I become a teacher. I think that the students would enjoy playing a game that tests their knowledge of math. Math is a hard subject for students and I think that if you were to make learning fun, then they oould enjoy it more.

Day 6 February 4, 2010

Today we video conferenced with 5th graders from California. Each child asked a question and we answered them with the knowledge that we have or from research. The questions that we answered were all about Internet Safety. The questions I had was: Should you put a picture of yourself on your profile, and Should you put your phoe number on your profile. I think that video conferencing fits Standard 4c. By video conferencing with 5th graders, we promote and model digital etiquette and responsible social intereactions related to the use of technology and information. I think video conferencing will be a wonderful to use in my future classroom becuase it would give my students a chance to get opinions from other students or higher educators.

Day 5 February 3,2010

Today we used Google Docs to make a form and to create graphs, by using the data from our forms. We came up with two questions and posted them to our blog using Google form. Then from the information we got we made a graph. I think this activity fits Standard 3 A,B,and C. By using Google Docs we are modeling digital-age work and learning. We are using technology to collobrate with students, peers, parents and community members. Also, we are communitcating relevant information to sutdents, peers, and parents by using different digital-age media. I would use this in my classroom to give tests, quizzes, and surveys for my students to fill out. Then they can work on group projects together and communication between them will be easier. Google Forms will be a great thing to use in my future classes, and I think that the students will enjoy using them to make graphs with the date they collects from their forms.
