During intro to Computers in Education we were assigned a project where in we created an interactive storyboard that our students would have to click on the pictures and put the story into the correct order. This project requred use of audacity a voice recording progam and photoshop in order to enhance and resize the photos we would use in the project. Students would benefit by taking this quiz because they wouldlearn to be a critical thinker andproblem solver ESOL students could also benefit by hearing the pronunciations of words. Students would enjoy this assignment because they would view it as a game instead of work helping motivate them to learn.

I learned how to use programs better and I learned about new ways that I as an educator can make things a little bit more fun in the classroom. It was challenging trying to get the audio files to work in conjunction with the pictures. I was finally able to solve the problem by reading over the directions carefully and trying different things until they worked. I learned that I work well under pressure and if I apply myself I can solve any problem that comesmy way. Blog type B

Intro to Ed. observations

During the course of this semesters intro to Education class we have been taught not in the usual fashion of memorizing material but has instead focused on opening our minds as educators. During thursday february the fourteenth we participated in an activity of studying a photograph of soldiers in iraq with children in the background. Thinking like educators we had to think of why the photograph seemed odd or wrong. The simplest question of course was why were'nt these children in school. This raised a debate with several possible answers such as maybe their school was damaged or destroyed or maybe their school system works differently. This activity was very interesting and allowed us to grow as educators. This is an E posting.
