UD EDU 352 Technology in Education

I chose this website because it allows students to practice vocabulary and spelling online. I can simply let them practice spelling words or I can give the spelling test right there online. This is more engaging than a traditional pencil and paper spelling test. Amber Koth

This website allows students to read books on or offline and they are able to take a quiz over it online as well. If I set up an account for my students I can have them take quizzes online over books they read to test their understanding. This is a great site! Amber Koth

This website provides a number of different websites that students can go to to practice their math skills. There are 10 different websites. Each website will provide their own number of games for students to use for math.

This website provides a number of different collections for students and teachers. The website provides activities/games for students to participate in and get a feel of what it would be like in person. The website also gives students and teachers virtual artifacts for projects. I would use this in my classroom for students who struggle to find good artifacts for their projects. It is important to have reliable resources.

This is a fun websites that students can go on and play all sorts of educational games. This website isn't limited to just reading, but there is also math, science and many other things. There are also short books that you can read on this website and then there is a game at the end that the students can play.

Teachertube is a Youtube for teachers. This site has filtered videos, audios, photos, and documents that teachers can use in their classroom and feel comfortable that they are appropriate for the classroom. You simply search the topic and specify what type of resource you are looking for, and teachertube finds what you need.

I have used this site before, as have many of us have. Weebly is a great way for teachers to inform students and parents about their classroom. They can put a list of assignments, important dates, as well as a list of rules, consequences, and resources for students and parents to use. They can include links as well as a place where parents can connect and ask questions.

With this website, you can take away the hassle of creating your own rubrics on a word document. Rubistar allows you to enter in the requirements you wish to have, specifying and tweaking them as need be. I think this is a great website that simply helps make the life of a teacher much easier in terms of saving time.

Teacher's corner has an abundance of resources for teachers to use. Worksheets, lesson plans, seasonal items, bulletin boards, collaborating projects, units and message boards are all at the use of a teacher. The teachers corner has a lot of very helpful resources for teachers to use on a daily basis, or when they are in a bind or need something new and creative.

Exploring nutrition is a hard concept for young kids to understand. However, this website can really help. Students will be able to learn through exploration of the different games which foods are considered "good and bad." They can sort them into the different food groups and learn about the food pyramid.

This is a site that offers animated videos to help explain science topics for many different levels. Its fun and interactive for any student. Teachers can use this as a tool for students to go on and watch the videos to learn and have fun. I remember using this in high school and thinking even grade school students would be able to understand the information. It can be used for other subjects also, like health and social studies.

BrainPop is extremely useful for all teachers, and I think should be completely utilized. All subjects are present, and students can learn and explore a variety of topics. However, teachers can utilize lesson plans, standards, and create homework assignments on the website. Truly a great site to add to a PLN.

Google Earth is a great resource to have in the classroom. It is the new map. It is interactive and would be very useful for students doing projects, researching different landmarks as well as different countries. It gives a glimpse at what the landscape looks like and can be zoomed in or out. However, it needs to be downloaded to be accessed.

This could be used throughout an entire semester in a classroom. Students can create an account and the teacher can either utilize it as a tool in the classroom or as an incentive of outside practice. Rather than assigning homework the teacher could have the students complete a lesson Working and completing all sections on this website could also be used as an incentive, those students who finish by the end of the year win a prize of some sort.

This is a popular website for beginner readers. My kindergartner really enjoys this website and the interactive reading sites are simple and straightforward and allow her to navigate them easily, on her own. 

Starfall is a great website to use if your school has not implemented phonics into their curriculum. The site is interactive and geared towards younger children first learning to read. It starts at the very beginning and works its way through the alphabet, learning to read, and different levels of reading. However, I feel this website could also be used for ELL learners.

This is a website which includes many different videos under several different subject matters which can be included into lessons to aid student learning.

Website with developmental games for kids, which can help to develop reaction time, and cognition in different subjects. Great website for teacher to have students use while they have down time in between assignments when other students are finishing up.

I like this site because it tells why it is important to use the technology in the classroom. This page also shows what other people think about a site wither its good or bad. I can use the information on this site to find ideas for my classroom. I can also use this site to talk to other teachers about what works in a classroom and what doesnt.

This is a great site for those interested in web 2.0. This gives you groups, events, and forums to help. Its a free site and is a good way to stay up to date on alot of new things in education. I like the forum because it gives alot of personal experiences to help new teachers.

Website which is designed for those interested in sharing ideas and resources about using Web 2.0 and new media in education. And allows individuals to collaborate with other educators

Weebly is a web 2.0 tool which can be used to make web pages which can aid student learning and can be used for parents at home. A great tool for educaiton.

This is a list of collaboration tools which teachers can use in the classroom, and even to collaborate with other teachers.

Lesson ideas for teachers, this is a website that new teachers could possibly use to get lesson plan ideas.
