My favorite tools are BrainPop, Learning Games for Kids,
Discovery Learning. I will use YouTube or Edutube as the set for my lesson
plans. I can find boxers and other athletes jumping rope when I want to show
how jump rope is used as a way to get physically fit and not just a recess
game.
My thinking has changed since I have been using web 2.0 tools.
This 11 tools training has definitely increased by confidence as far as trying
new technology with my students. I see how important it is to help our students
use multiple devices/tools to engage them in learning, real-world learning. I
will now add the netbooks and ipods to my stations and in my lesson plans I
will incorporate technology.
I loved the hands on
format and I was surprised and grateful that we were taught these tools by
actually getting a change to use them. In addition, I am excited to be able to
use Atomic Learning
tutorials and to know that we will get staff development credit at the same time. WOW!
tutorials and to know that we will get staff development credit at the same time. WOW!
Congratulations! You are finished! I hope you learned tons of helpful things and are ready to put them to use!
