Week 10 - Watch videos and post response.
The videos were very helpful in understanding the importance of using technology in the classroom. During practicum I learned that it is a lot harder than I thought it would be to implement technology inmy classroom, or with my class.I thought it was a great idea to use cameras to capture pictures of spiders then post them online an dcompare them with a class from another state. This helps the students learn how to work in groups and also makes them feel important and useful in participating on a great mount of the assignment. On the brown bear video I liked how the teacher told her students to think. I believe technology can totally help students wih their critical thinking. On the habitats video I loved how they had to use multimedia software for their presentation, this helps them with experience using technology and it helps them with the public speaking skills. And I also liked that they had to list their sources and make sure they understood copyright laws. Technology is really a great tool in a teachers and students lives, it enhances learning and so many other skills.

Classroom Technology Inventory
There are not many technology available in the classroom I am in. the teacher has her computer and that is it. But one thing I forgot to mention in my inventory is that each hall, or pod as the school calls it, has about 10 computers studets can use through out the day. The students use them as centers, to do their AR quizes, and for other activities the teachers may prepare. I completed the two surveys.
