Classroom || Jen, I really like your ideas to tackle obstacles teachers might have with blogging. I liked your ideas to apply blogging to the classroom. ~Joy Jen, We did the same topic and I am amazed how we used a lot of the same sources even though we never collaborated on this assignment! I guess the work for this class sent us to the same sources:) I really liked your ideas for overcoming the reasons not to blog. Great Job! ~Stacy Making this technology available to elementary students will certainly lighten the load for secondary teachers in the near future. There is such diversity in technological skills at the high school level at this point in time. I can wait to get students who have been exposed to technology in classes such as yours. Thanks! Pat Jen, I love how you provided your viewers with so many ideas for blogging in the classroom and ways in which they can implement blogs into their lesson plans. Although I am a Net Gener, I have NEVER been interested in blogging for myself, let alone for my students and lesson plans...until now!! Thanks so much! -Victor || Joy, I really liked the graphic of the brain and all the ways using video can stimulate different parts of the brain! I also noticed that you also use a Mac. I know I had to do a lot of learning just to get this video from Keynote up onto YouTube and it looks like you did too:) In the end we were successful...LOL:) Great job on the video!! ~Stacy We haven't talked in class about the combination of art and presentation along with technology that you point out in your video. I can see the Art and Drama teachers getting new ideas from video sharing as well. Thanks for your ideas. Diane As a biology teacher, I like the brain graphic as well. If getting your animations to work took as long as mine did, I applaud you! Pat LOL, thank you for your support! My keynote application would not open, so the publishing was much harder than I anticipated. I learned how to take video screen shots for the first time. In my frustration, I learned more about publishing than I anticipated!~Joy || "Blogging in the Classroom" || Stacy, Great job with your video. I loved your graphics and how you pulled them on the screen as you were speaking. I also liked how you incorporated the video on what is a blog? Jen Stacy, I really enjoyed your graphics and the ideas you had to use blogs outside of the regular school day. ~Joy What a nice professional job you did on this video! One question I have about classroom blogs is about how they are monitored. Do you dedicate time each day to read student created content? What happens if students do not follow guidelines for posting content? Pat || Your animations turned out greate. I was especially impressed with your slide on hours logged by Net Gen. That 5000 hours reading really blew me away. No wonder I can't get students to read the text book! Pat Diane, congrats on making those animations work!! You know, if you add Wii to your toolbox, you've also engaged those students who have a kinetic learning style...learning through movement. They actually have math games you can play with your whole body! Very nice job on your video! Laurie

Also, I liked how you ended the presentation. It gave your audience something more to think about after the presentation ended. Playing a game with a Net Gen really gives you a whole different insight into video games. ~Sharon

Diane, great use of the animations! This really helped your key points to stand out. I love how you stated that many Boomers who are critical of video games had never even played a video game before. That is a perfect example of why there is such a great divide between those two generations. Awesome job with the video! -Victor || "Learning Styles of the Net Generation" || Today I texted my college daughter to ask a question I thought she would know and she replied one word.... "Internet"! It reminds me of your comment in this presentation of how much Net Gens use the internet for information.... it was second nature to my 18 year old... and I thought of asking a person (HER) first! Diane Your point about immediacy made me wonder if this need will affect Net Gens in other areas of their lives. We all know that immediate gratification is not always possible in situations where Google doesn't apply. Pat || Using Second Life in Education || Hey Pat! I can see why you labored so long to get those animations to convert into the movie. Nice! I hadn't thought before your presentation about how vulnerable virtual worlds make teachers who are used to being the sole proprietor of their classroom. Perhaps it can even up the ante a bit and improve teaching as well as learning for students! thanks for this. Diane Whoa, Pat, how did you get your animations to work? Very nice! I'm intrigued by the idea of Second Life but had not been able to really get past my hesitation that it didn't look "real" enough. However, I like your idea to apply it in your biology class as part of a "virtual lab," especially where students can investigate cells or microscopic structures that would not show up in 3D on a microscope. Very nice job!! Laurie || This is a great topic! My daughter is quickly approaching her tween years, and while she currently loves to read it is apparent that may change in the future. I think both of your ideas to keeps tween ready are good ones. Joining a book club still gives them that social interaction that they crave while conitining to be readers. I also like the idea of a wiki. It, too, creates social interaction centered around reading. Thanks fo sharing this great info! Sharon ||  || -Diane ||
