From using Diigo I have learned a new way to annotate online material. I have also learned a new way to bookmark sites and have them all in one central location. It can be useful in the classroom so students know how to annotate the sites. Also good for working with team members because you can see what they see and go over their notes from a website. All those uses can be used for individual professional efforts. A good way to stay organized and keep everything together.

A power point lesson is a good way to meet all the stages of Blooms Taxonomy. First off the create will be met from making the power point. Then with all the information added it would be evaluated. Then the steps follow smoothly. The whole thing would be analyzed by breaking it down into different parts. With that I would have a worksheet with questions to follow up with the power point. This would fit the applying part. Then they could group up and ask questions from the power point to know that they have understood the material and will keep working on that so it is remembered.

Technology helps teachers advance greatly. It gives new ideas for the teacher to teach. It also helps with the students learning ability. It can be a motivator for them to stay interested in different topics. It is good for teachers to stay up to date because the pace at which technology is advancing. It advances so fast so they should be up to date. It is also good to stay up to date so they can teach the students on how to use it so they can use it in the future with school work, job, etc. A good site to keep on the changes is on twitter. This site posts about the new tech changes for schools. Very helpful and always active.

ILP "Participation"- Technology Showcase

Image
I visited the Technology Showcase before class and it was a great learning experience. I had a hands on experience with the different types of technologies used in our schools today. I got to use the three different types of smart boards. I used AR and VR. Those were very neat because I have never used them before and it was a new experience. I did get a little motion sick from it though. I also used the robots that are very helpful for the ones learning experience. They have a robot that records video and sound of instruction. They even have an IPad that gives you the ability to incorporate learning with different games. My activity notes: The equipment is very fancy and seem very expensive. I like the white board that plays games. It would keep the kids interested with learning. But if it was for high school kids the normal white boards would probably work best. Or with older kids, I would use the VR and AR. I think they would enjoy that more and it would be more practical. Also,...

Initial Blog Post (Post #0)

My name is Logan Brown. I am from Jacksonville, Florida. I am a die hard FSU sports fan. I also am a big Jaguars fan. I love sports, animals, and food. A day in my life is pretty busy during the week. I work two jobs and a full time student. I am gone non stop until  the weekend. I love the weekends because I do not have work so I am able to relax and focus on some school work. But when it comes to the school work, I am such a good procrastinator! Oh and I LOVE to spend money, I am pretty good at that too. In the past I have not used too much technology. I am from the west side of Jacksonville so the funding was not that good. I am just used to white boards and some projectors. I have visited the sandbox here and it is very neat. All the educational technology is amazing and is making learning more fun that what it used to be. I wish I was taught with it because I feel as if I would have paid a little more attention to it throughout my learning. I hope to learn all the new gadget...

Persanolly I am not a fan of the flipped classroom. To me that type of classroom is far away from the traditional style that most everyone knows today. In the flipped style you kind of help yourself and others learn the material. You can do the learning on your own. Once you do the learning you come and explain what you know. This gives the teacher a way to make sure you have learned the correct material. It will also include more activities. I do not think this style is for everyone though. OERs are to help people learn but with out the nuisance of spending money all different types of resources. OERs give you a way to get some education resource from all over. From the site I was on they explain many types of OERs. They also give out resources for anyone to use. They organize the material as courses. The material is also for higher education. They give out wanted information for the ones who are in universities and beyond. I find it very helpful because I learn more on OERS and see...
