Significant Postings N Smith

I really enjoyed the post on Pod Casting by Carla and the video clip of the Journalism Broadcasting teacher’s classroom. The teacher in the video took the initiative to secure a grant to purchase iPods for her classroom to use. I find this type of initiative admirable in the teaching profession. It is a gift to see a need and find a way to meet that need. I am sure that this particular teacher took the time to write this grant because she saw that her students could learn a great deal from the use of technology in her classroom. I am glad to see that she allowed some of the students to take the iPods home for the students to share what they are doing in the classroom with their families. What a great way to generate support for the school from the local community. I really was excited to see the level of evolvement that the students had in the video. So much is written about how students are bored in the classroom. Technology is a great way to stimulate student interest.
