February 7th Blog
I watched the video integrating ICT into the MFL classroom. Most of everything that this podcast was about I agreed with. By using podcast in the classroom it makes it very easy for students to gather information or find out things they missed that day at school. Podcast are an innovative way for students to learn and understand new forms of technology. It is also easy to upload new podcast, this teaches students how to do it themselves. By getting involved with technology it helps students understand materials better, and actually want to learn. Our world today is full of technological advances such as; video games, t.v, facebook, e.t.c. So to teach students today we have to be on their level. We almost have to think like our students do. If learning is made to be fun and different then maybe the dropout rate wouldn't be so high. This podcast was very informative, and helped me to realize that we must understand technology and use it in the classroom.

Good job Brittany. It is my hope that by listening to these podcast you now have a better understanding of how to do your own podcast in a few weeks. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteDo you think they will ever develop a form of charter school where you just podcast into the classroom for the lectures? I was in a video charter school my freshman year of high school where they sent us DVDs, but podcasting may be simpler.
ReplyDeleteI agree. We as teachers need to get on the students level. They are around so much technology already and will be around more by the time they get out, we must use it in the classroom.
