<br />
In the video, <a href="http://learningismessy.com/blog/?p=854">Back to the Future</a> by Brian Crosby, he shows how his classroom is set up. He talks about how his students roll over with him, so he is there teacher while they are in the 4th, 5th, and 6th grade. He talks about what kind of students he teaches and they are of poverty and 2nd language learners. He then talks about his method of teaching.<br />
<br />
His students use technology while learning. Mr. Crosby provides every student with a laptop. They also have their own blogs. He has a fascinating way of teaching. He has his students do very hand on lessons. For example, he has his students demonstrate how a hot air balloon goes through different layers of the Earth’s atmosphere. The project is titled “High Hope.”<br />

Mr. Crosby had his students write a high hope about their school, community, and the world. They posted them online to their blogs. They started getting a lot of feedback to their blog posts. Then all of the students started commenting on other student’s blog posts. It was great to see how he got his students connected with students from all over the world.<br />
<br />
Mr. Crosby`s way of teaching is amazing. It is great to see how he gets his students involved. One part of the video that is fascinating is how Mr. Crosby incorporates a new student with leukemia who cannot come to class. He Skype’s with her like she is really in class. I know I learn more by being hands on. I think Mr. Crosby is a really good teacher. I also like how he moved on with his students from 4th through 6th grade. It is great to see more teachers using technology to get more students involved. <br />

The video A Vision of Students Today is by Michael Wesch and a college class from Kansas State University in the spring of 2007. The video is from a college students perspective. The students talk about how they are on Facebook more than they are educational sites. They also talked about how only 18% of a student’s professors know his/her name.<br />
<br />
As a student I understand how students can veer off during lesson and go on Facebook or Twitter. For this reason I do not take my laptop with me to class unless I absolutely need it. Educators need to incorporate more technology into the classroom so students do not have the chance to veer off. At the end of the video it show how boring a chalk board can be because you cannot show interesting=g videos relating to the lesson being taught, pictures, animations, or networks. The video is very fascinating, because all throughout the video you are reading the students thoughts on a sheet of paper on their laptop screen.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11472383287993915476noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945541362208191921.post-55243875021579221042012-12-02T11:27:00.001-06:002012-12-02T11:28:46.947-06:00C4K`s For November<a href="http://kidblog.org/MrBoylens2012-13LAClass/80f81ae4-5603-4a8d-a2e0-cc3529a00132/they-cage-the-animals-at-night/#comment-223"><b>They Cage the Animals at Night</b></a><br />

I am so glad that EDM 310 introduced me to such a great program. Symbaloo is my home page. Every time I go online all I have to do is click on one of the icons I created. I love how you can personalize it to your settings and your most viewed sites. After this semester I will continue to use this helpful program.

My group, team B.A.J.A., have met a few times since our last class meeting. We interact a lot with Google document where we can all leave feedback and give different ideas that we have. Our idea for the project is to go through time and see the different eras of technology. The video will start off with cave people who have no idea what the future will hold and time will progress and so will technology. This is going to be an exciting project to film. I can not wait to see the finished product.

For this C4T I was assigned to Teacher Tom. His blog posts are very interesting and you can relate to the things he talks about. The post I read is titled Trusting Their Judgement. In this post he talks about how he had this one student who was eager to sit on his toy dump truck and ride down a small hill. All Tom could think about was the harm that could be done to the student, but the student reassured him nothing bad would happen. So he let the student ride down the slope and told him to go ahead and if he gets hurt he will be there to pick him up. So the student rides down the hill and receives no injuries.<br />

post was great and was very informative for future educators. As a future
educator I believe I would have reacted the same way thinking of all the bad
things that could possibly happen. Children are always eager to do the opposite
of what you tell them, because they have their own judgement of the task at
hand. I agree with your title we need to trust our students judgement. I really
enjoyed reading this post!!"</span></span></div>

<br />
The teacher I was assigned to was teachernz. The post "Pact with the Devil" talks about how the school system is not set up for every student’s needs. The post says "They have no place in a modern education system or rich curriculum designed to work with diverse and disparate learner needs." The post talks about if we as educators do not fix this problem we are going to be the ones to blame for students not learning everything they need to know.<br />
<br />
My comment to this post was "I agree with your post. Every student is different and some students do not think the same way as their peers. I agree if educators do not take a stand it will affect the generation being taught. Educators are the solution to this problem."Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11472383287993915476noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945541362208191921.post-42083437580062330612012-11-18T21:24:00.003-06:002012-11-18T22:59:31.884-06:00Blog Post #12App Scavenger Hunt<br />
<br />
Technology is very amusing to children in today`s society. Children find electronics such as cell phones and laptops very entertaining. As a future educator I would love to incorporate technology into my lessons, and also let my students have an input. This is why I have decided to let my students do an app scavenger hunt.<br />
<br />
In this assignment students will use an iPod or iPad to look up educational apps. The app can pertain to Math, Science, Social Studies, English or Reading. After finding 3 useful apps the students will share what they find with the class and give a brief description about the app and what subject it can be used for. For a bonus the students can find an app that could be used in their PE class. After every student completes the assignment and shares their educational apps with the class we will vote on an app for each subject to incorporate into our lesson.<br />
<br />

In this video Ms. Cassidy’s students show viewers how they can work with wikis, blogs, Skype, and also incorporate their Nintendo DS. Her first graders know so much about technology. It is cool to see that she is teaching her students how to write and publish blogs at such a young age. The title truly fits the video. If I would have learned how to blog at an early age, I would have probably been a blogger. I did not know how to blog until college. Ms. Cassidy is doing so much with her students.<br />

The Skype interview with Ms. Cassidy answered so many questions for me and also gave some great tips for educators. One great tip she gave is to start developing an online system. I already use websites such as Facebook, Twitter, Symbaloo, and many more. Ms. Cassidy also states how she keeps her students private. She talks about how she does not post their last name or does not post pictures of her students. Blogging is a great way for students to interact with each other. I never knew that kids at this young of an age were blogging. It is so cool to see how much they know about technology. Ms. Cassidy is doing a great job with incorporating technology into her lessons.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11472383287993915476noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945541362208191921.post-18118360932674200232012-11-08T10:05:00.000-06:002012-11-08T10:06:48.959-06:00C4K for October<a href="http://kidblog.org/MsDunlopsClass2012-13/aa955471-4f44-4284-8b0c-c445189c944c/why-i-admire-keela/"><span style="background-color: #444444; color: white;">C4K #3</span></a><br />

<span style="background-color: #444444; color: white;">The blog post I read for this assignment was by Clara Beau about procrastination. In the post she talks about how she procrastinates a lot. She says that at the begging of the school year she makes an agreement with herself that she is going to be a better student, but it always fails. She ends her post with saying that this year she is not even going to let the procrastination cycle have time to set in.</span><br />

In his blog post he talks about a roller coaster called X Flight. He talks about how him and his friend where at Six Flags in Chicago, Illinois. He starts out by saying it was a sunny day and they were waiting in line for the roller coaster. He talks about how he didn`t want to ride it at first, because of the long line, but he remained in line anxious the whole time. When he finally made it to the front of the line his heart is beating really fast. He says the ride was amazing, but he had a headache after the ride. He says the ride was worth the wait and headache.</span><br />

In this article USA TODAY celebrates its 30th anniversary. They interviewed some of the USA's greatest visionaries to talk about the world of tomorrow. This article talks about how education will be free and available to everyone. The article states that these online classes would be taught by star professors from around the world. The article states that schools such as New Charter University and UniversityNow aim to make an online college education as affordable as a cellphone bill. It also talks about how a lesson could look something like angry birds. "You want learning to be as much fun as it is to play a video game," says Sebastian Thrun.<br />
<br />
I think this is an article that makes you think. I know I rather take online classes, because you get to work at your own pace as long as you meet the deadline. I think this web based school would be better for only college students. I think younger students should be able to go to school and interact face to face with others. Being from the south we are trying to battle with obesity and this would not benefit our younger students.This would be hard for every school in the United States to do, because technology is expensive. Some school systems are also old fashioned and would not agree to a technology based system.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11472383287993915476noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945541362208191921.post-30762856709655001592012-11-01T16:35:00.003-05:002012-11-01T16:35:37.391-05:00Project 11<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The cartoon by John T. Spencer is so true. What I concluded after viewing the cartoon is that you get what you pay for. This does not only go for pens, but for things such as laptops, TV’s, or anything for that matter. Like the cartoon says, if you buy the cheap version of a product it will break faster, because it is made of a cheaper material and you will spend more money if you keep replacing the item.<br />

The games he chooses go along with the lessons he is teaching. The principle got on to Mr. Spencer once before for playing hangman in the classroom. The principle calls Mr. Spencer into his office and tells him he said “No Games.” The principle goes on and says that even surgeons and soldiers play games to help them remember things. Mr. Spencer says games are great ways to get students to remember content that is being taught. I could not agree more that games get students involved and more important, they are learning while doing something other than sitting through a boring lecture.<br />

Don`t teach your kids this stuff. Please? By Scott McLeod had me going until I got to the end. It was a humorous post, because he says he doesn`t want other people to teach young people about technology, because he is teaching his students all these things. With society being centered on technology, it is important to know some things about it. His students are a step ahead of others because teachers are scared to teach students about technology. In my opinion technology makes learning fun.

I decided to use <a href="http://www.symbaloo.com/">Symbaloo</a> for my PLN project. This tool is so helpful, because you don`t have to type in different sites all the time, and it is just a click away. This tool is so convenient and accessible. I am so glad I was introduced to Symbaloo. It is now my homepage, and with it being my homepage, I can access all of my favorite websites, because it is personalized to my interests.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11472383287993915476noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945541362208191921.post-61027697510871714572012-10-28T13:46:00.002-05:002012-10-28T13:51:21.969-05:00Blog Post #9<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b><a href="http://mcclungsworld.com/2012/06/13/what-i-learned-this-year-volume-4/">What I Learned this Year Volume 4</a> </b><br />
<br />
The first post I read was <a href="http://mcclungsworld.com/2012/06/13/what-i-learned-this-year-volume-4/">What I learned This Year 2012-2011</a>.
Mr. McClung is in his fourth year teaching social studies and Arkansas history in Fayetteville, Arkansas. In this
post, Mr. McClung talks about two things he would change the next school year.<br />
<br />
Mr.McClung starts worrying about what his peers think of him
and says he is committing the junior high sin. He got caught up worrying about
what his coworkers thought of him, but came back to reality and remembered he
is not there for them but for his students. He concludes this topic by saying
as long as his students enjoy and are learning what he is teaching, he is doing
his job.<br />
<br />
The second thing Mr. McClung wants to change in the upcoming
years is to challenge himself more. At this time he has been at the same school
teaching the same subjects for three years. He talks about how he gets lazy and
gets in the same routine with his lessons. This method probably bored his
students. Luckily, at the end of the year he gets offered to teach a new
subject for the next school year. He says this opportunity could not have come
at a better time, because this will be a good challenge for him.<br />
<br />
I think it is easy for a teacher to become lazy, but like Mr. McClung says, you have to challenge yourself as an educator. I liked how he talks about worrying about what his coworkers think, because a lot of teachers fall under the junior high sin. I really enjoyed reading this post.<br />

This was Mr. McClung`s first year teaching. This blog post has a lot
of different things Mr. McClung has learned in this year of teaching. Some of
the topics were how to react in a crowd, be flexible, communicate, be reasonable,
not to be afraid of technology, listen to your students, and never stop
learning.<br />
<br />
I really enjoyed reading this post, because all these topics
will be helpful when I begin to teach. A topic that I found really important is
for educators to never stop learning. He talks about how teachers do everything
to get their students to learn, but the educator refuses to do so as well.
Another topic I really liked was that educators need to be reasonable and not
to set the bar too high for students.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11472383287993915476noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945541362208191921.post-12835948754114228192012-10-21T23:01:00.000-05:002012-11-08T08:57:37.278-06:00C4T #2<a href="http://russgoerend.com/2012/10/how_we_plan_a_project_the_road_map.html">How we plan a project: the road map</a><br />

I was assigned to Russ Goerend`s blog, <a href="http://russgoerend.com/">http://russgoerend.com/</a>. The blog post I commented on was titled "How we plan a project:the road map." In this post Russ talks about the road map to writing a short story, and all the steps<span style="font-family: inherit;"> you should take when using this method. I commented "<span style="line-height: 115%;">I
agree with the statement you made “Building in the tasks beforehand gives us a
chance to make sure they’re worthwhile and deciding when to stop and assess our
progress makes it easier for students to see their own progress and become a
part of the assessment cycle.” This is a great method to use while teaching
students how to write a short story. Your road map to writing is extraordinary."</span></span><br />

In part one of the <a href="http://is.gd/2cfNk">This is How We Dream</a>, Dr. Richard E. Miller talks about how the society is changing and that we are a more technology based. He says that more people carry around laptops than they do pencils and paper. He makes a great point when he says that you search the web for a research paper and you are able to access so much more information than you would at a single library. Dr. Miller talks about how you can use to the web to interact with multiple people, which made me think of Eric Whitacre’s Virtual Choir.<br />
<br />
In the second part of the video, Dr. Miller starts off by saying that we live in a digital environment and how everything is always being updated. He talks about how lectures from college professors are now available on iTunes U. A great point Dr. Miller made was that people need to share their ideas with the world.<br />
<br />
After viewing this video I began to think and I have not been in a library in a while, because now I can purchase an eBook which is more convenient for me. I even purchase my school textbooks online, which is easier because it is less I have to carry around. When he mentioned that you can post something to the web faster than you can write and publish something, YouTube popped to my head. When using YouTube, you can have a video posted within seconds or minutes. This blog post was great!<br />

Carly did a great job with this assignment. This is definitely a great and creative idea. Her assignment is for each student to make their own playlist based on 5 of the 10 topics that are given. This assignment is great way for your students to get more familiarized with the internet. This is a really good assignment and this would allow educators to be reminded of why they have chosen this profession and ways of how to be a good teacher.<br />

<br />
The Chipper Series is about a student named Chipper who has her own views on education. Chipper is a procrastinator who blames the teacher for her late assignments. She decides to drop out of school and start her own. When that option does not work out, she becomes a teacher for a few days and gets fired. At the end, Chipper gets her priorities straight and figures out the best way to succeed in life is with a degree and the proper education.<br />

In the EDM 310 for Dummies, it starts out with two girls who are so frustrated with EDM 310 assignments. They buy a book titled EDM 310 for Dummies and after reading it, the assignments become easier for the students. I think most people can relate to the video EDM 310 for Dummies. I know when I first start using a new program, I get frustrated, but when I learn how to use the program it is so useful and saves time.<br />

<br />
In this video, it starts off by saying education ranked 55 out of 55 below coal mining. It goes on talking about how more students are involved in text messaging, Facebook, and twitter, and it is banned from schools. These educators talk about how we should incorporate Facebook and twitter into educational settings. These educators are encouraging educators to use technology in the classroom. I agree with these educators, we as teachers need to get our students on the right level with technology in today’s society.<br />

This is really a great and creative activity created by Justin Cometti. I did not know how many websites that exist that are similar to Facebook and Twitter. Also, I have never created a comic strip which was really fun. This activity was very educational for me.<br />
<br />
1.A website I found similar to Facebook or Twitter is <a href="http://edmodo.com/">Edmodo.com</a>. This website is created just for students and teachers so they can interact with each other. The website states “Edmodo provides a safe and easy way for your class to connect and collaborate, share content, and access homework, grades and school notices. “<br />

<br />
The Networked Student by Wendy Drexler is a very informative short film. This video shows how networking is a great way for students to learn. In this video, Wendy Drexler`s students are encouraged to make a connection with each other to strengthen their learning process.<br />
<br />
Student`s depend more on technology than they do books. I believe we need to teach students how to be technology literate. The video talks about all the ways students can gather information by using the internet. The video showed how students can view podcasts all over the world from different teachers.<br />
<br />
I want to be a teacher where students enjoy learning, and I believe the best way for that to happen is to incorporate technology. I know I hate sitting through boring lectures. Teachers could make the classroom more exciting by making PowerPoint’s or letting their students watch podcasts on the lesson.<br />

In this video a 7th grade student shows how she uses her PLE, or Personal Learning Environment. She has her page set up with all her personal and educational websites all in one place. All of the research she gathers, she makes slideshows to help others. The program, Symbaloo, seemed really helpful. Using this method in the classroom would get students more involved. I believe PLN is a great tool and teaches how to be more responsible and independent.<br />
<br />
My personal learning network is not as good as hers, but hopefully it will get there. This is a great video to watch. It shows you more tools to use while teaching. The tools are not only great for the students, but also the educators.

The student who wrote this post is Noah from New Zealand. He blog post was titled “Noah`s Diver Story” and in his story he tells a very descriptive story of a diver swimming in the sea looking for treasure.<br />
<br />
For my first comment I introduced myself and said the story about Ben the diver was amazing! It was so descriptive I could imagine everything as if I was there. Good job
<br />
and Keep up the good work!!<br />

The second blog I was assigned to was <a href="http://devenscs17.edublogs.org/2012/09/25/acs-fundraisers">http://devenscs17.edublogs.org/2012/09/25/acs-fundraisers</a>. The student`s name is Deven and he is from Iowa. In his blog post he talked about a fundraiser he was helping with for the American Cancer Society. Some activities the fundraiser included were a petting zoo and horse rides for the guest.<br />

My comment for this post was “I just read your blog post and I think it is amazing that you are helping raise money for the American Cancer Society. I loved the picture that is included it helped me visualize the petting zoo. This was a great post! Keep up the good work!!”Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11472383287993915476noreply@blogger.com0
