Things I Have Learned

This semester, I have learned a lot of things. I learned how to create a trifold brochure, which was very interesting. I also learned how to use Excel, that was something that I knew nothing about. I also learned how to write in HTML code and what it stands for. I learned a lot more I just can't think of everything this moment. I really enjoyed my learning experience in EDM 310.

I-Pods in the Classrooms

Apple enables educators to expand their curriculum to meet the mobile and media-rich learning styles of today’s students. iPod extends teaching and learning beyond the normal classroom hours, allowing students to easily and continuously learn. Many educators are already using IPod in their curriculum. In all, it’s a great way for educators to create, organize, and distribute content. All of which add new and exciting dimensions to learning. IPod allows educators to more easily engage and match the individual needs of diverse learners. It can be an essential tool in helping students acquire new skills and improve their academic achievement. With iPod, educational institutions can deliver better on the promise of preparing all learners for life in the 21st century.

Blogs in classrooms (K-12)

Many teachers have picked up the idea of using blogs in the classrooms. The education blog can be very powerful and useful technology tool for students and teachers alike. Although blogs have been around for years they have recently gained popularity. Blogs work well for students because they can be worked on at anytime, in any place with an Internet enabled computer. Blogs are highly motivating to students especially those who otherwise might not become participants in the classrooms.
