Why aren't we changing?

I enjoyed going to the ETTC and our presentation from Faisil.  The video clips he played were, in my opinion, spot on.  Our educational institutions are not changing fast enough to keep up with the rest of the world.  How can we, as educators prepare students to go out into the work force without exposing them to technology that is used everyday outside of the walls of our schools?  I did find that Teachertube is not blocked at my school and there are some great educatioal videos available there.



Garage Sale

Not until last class did it occur to me that different demographics would require a different approach for yard sale signage.  It's been a long time since I've taken a marketing class, so long ago that when I did the Internet was just coming on the scene.

Power Point and My Jeep

I do realize that Power Point to most of my classmates is an antiquated application. However, I view Power Point like my old Jeep (which has been referred to as "More reliable than gravity")....she's old, doesn't have many bells or whistles...but I understand how she works and have a clue what to do when she doesn't!

I've been a busy bee...

I've Jinged, Binged, Screencasted and taxedoed!  Truly I realize these are not verbs.   The tech guy at my school better watch out cause I'm learning more each day!
