Blogging

Blogging the personal and professional way to share news. Current events, parental updates on kids, hobbies, travels, areas of interests and the list can go on. Blogging is a 2 way communication system where you can offer your expertise, share information, and others can add to the conversation. A community of individuals connected by the blog subject virtually from anywhere in the world.
This week I will be researching the use of blogs in education. Figuring out how I will incorporate in the blog in the instructional practices program.

Excited About Teaching

Working on creating training modules for teaching teachers technology for engaging students in the classroom. Based upon my experience I will be doing that through having them experience and use the technology during their participation in the training series. Those that I have talked to are very very excited about learning the new skills and knowledge of how to meaningfully use technology.
On a personal note my sophomore in high school is in honor's English. The teacher is big on vocabulary. I was sharing with him the use of the Wiki for his class mates to share and collaborate on creating examples and ideas. He asked me to help him set up a site next week.
Enjoying the implementation and doing of what I am learning. Experience, Reflection and Refinement.
I love working on my Master's. If anyone has any ideas or examples I would love it if you would share.
