Day 3 morning

I am always searching for ways to enhance my teaching. I have always felt that a successful teacher should always be learning or he/she will become bored and boring. Video games are part of our students worlds so I need to learn more about them and their worlds.

Day 2 afternoon

Technology enhances student learning by exposing them to current and past primary sources and live video. My teaching has changed as I have many venues to use to keep the students excited and focused.

I know this because the students do not become bored

Day 2 morning

I think students learn best visually, auditorily and kinestheticly. Most students will remember an activity when they participate like solving a problem or playing a game. Also students learn well when they are teaching others.

Day 1 afternoon

I use many primary sources from the internet in my classroom. I use the digtal projector to show video clips for my classes. I can not imagine teaching without technology.

Day 1 morning

I think they can be lots of fun and challenging. I also think some are too violent. As learning tools, I think they can be Great!!! Using them is such an excellent way to use student directed learning instead of teacher directed.
