Rethinking Eduction

Reading this I really thought that the ideas and arguments that they came up with was not necessarily true. Yes the world is always changing in how people think and communicate but you don't have to change the way school has been going just because of the point they made. I believe its always good to add new things to school to get students better prepared for the real world. The way we communicate is changing. We are moving from "communities of place" to "communities of interest." At the end of the day technology is becoming more and more popular and schools will become more and more advanced in technology. Putting students in situations where computer tools are necessary to solve complex problems will kick start schools to change basic instructional practices.

Technology Integration Reaction

It is great that we are getting to a point where we can teach students through technology rather than a textbook. When I was watching this video I saw that elementary students are great at learning through the computers and they seem to have more fun doing it. I wish they had us doing more things like that in the video when I was in school, because I would of loved some of my classes more.

Hopes for Educators

I'm very dedicated to learning how to become a great teacher. I hope to learn from this class how to be the best teacher I can be and this class will help me get started in my teaching career.
