Why do they not know how to set up an email account on their own? This should have been an easy task for 21st century students.
-
Not for my kids... a lot of them do not have computers at home. I teach at-risk, low social economic students.
-
I had to laugh when you wrote that. This afternoon I got all my kids in and did a trial homework assignment with just gmail. They were very enthusiastic... it was a good day
-
I think it is great that you keep plowing through the messiness of using these tools. So often, teachers (and administrators) are uncomfortable with messiness. What can you expect though with NCLB? Don't make any mistakes. And if things aren't perfect, there will be hell to pay! Keep going, Heather!

I’m soooooo upset. Gmail needs to stop for now!
-
any thoughts guys
-
maybe access it at home and complete? Any ideas?
-
I intent to introduce my students to it next week. I hope they will be as excited as I am about the concept.

By Thursday I will be into a story about the Black Plague
-
Just a hunch...but you might find some interesting interactive things on the internet that deal with the black plague or Medieval Europe.

I like how you are sharing this "aha" moment about prior knowledge. Around 2000, John Bransford et al, published a book called How People Learn. Prior knowledge is a key feature of what we hang new learning on. That is why it is important for teachers to understand the experiences of their students. If you just teach content, you will likely never tap into the prior knowledge that kids will attempt ot hang that new learning on.

I realize that this class has opened a whole new world to us.
-
Students can use their cognitive skills and stretch their imaginations beyond any limits in the 21st century.
-
As you think about those two essential questions, push yourself to think beyond the technology. How is the teaching and learning different as a result? Otherwise, we get sidetracked by the tehnology and forget to think about its impact.
-
Yes, Randy, but using the technology as only a tool is what the idea is.

The other tool that I am learning how to use is imovie.

Randy, I now have a meeting with head of tech at my high school as well as Tom Drago( head of technology for Easton sd. )Oh boy, my principal wants me to show them what I'm doing. Hope this doesn't fall all over me and the rest of the English department is going to have to stop using gmail and google docs, since they all been using it but never asked permission. The good thing is my enthusiasm and my kids'. They love it. I'll post my wordle experience tomorrow( was wonderful). After I took this job, I was so worried about to reach these kids. Thanks for showing me a way and for your support!
