One Last Thing

On this learning journey, my favorite discoveries were Flickr and TeacherPop. This program has affected my lifelong learning goals, by giving me more insight on the teachnologies out there and available. This will help the students in my future classroom. It tells me that learning goals are more reachable and possible with technology. I didn't really come across any unexpected outcomes from this program. The only thing I can think of that could be done differently in this program is more teacher interaction. What I have learned will influence my practice as a teacher because I will implement some of the things I learned in this program in my future classroom. I plan on keeping up with the developments my bookmarking this page and seeing of anything changes in the future.

Thing Number 23

I would use the tutorial I made in our project for this class in teaching about Creative Commons in the future.
The entire 23 Things site is all over the US, so it is modified for each school that uses it.

Thing Number 22

I used Education Podcast Network. I have used this site before when we created a podcast for our project. It is very easy to use and navigate. I listened to Radio WillowWeb #33 . It was adorable. It is 2nd graders discussing art. I have already created a podcast for class, but will probably not create another one. No, there wasn't really one I found that I would subscribe to and listen to regularly.

Thing Number 21

I really like Animoto. I am going to use on MySpace and Facebook! It was a lot of fun and easy! I just hate that it takes so long to create at the end!

Thing Number 20

I love YouTube! There are so many different things to watch, both educational and noneducational. You can find a lot of videos that are kind of like Discovery Streaming. About the only thing I dislike is sometimes it is hard to find the same video twice! There are components that would be interesting if I applied to the library website, such as the educaional channels. My only fear would be students being able to see other things on the site because there is a lot of things they should not see!

I chose this video because children would love this video and it is educational!

Thing Number 19

Other than MySpace and Facebook I am a member of Xanga. This site is appealing to me but not as appealing as the other sites. I also really liked TeacherPop. I found this site interesting and a site that I would most likely use later. I like that it is all about education, not just social networking! If it isn't about education you shouldn't post it. I found a few friends from APSU too!
