UD EDU 352 Technology in Education

This allows teachers to drop files in an online folder and access it from multiple computers. Collaborative folders can be created to share with partner teachers.

Drop box seems very handy and is an easy way to store, sync, and, share files online. For an older class this would be beneficial. Now adays assignments are submitted online a lot more and this would be very easy for both the teacher and the student to see their files they have uploaded and both can edit and work on them. It would be helpful for the teacher to write notes on an assinment and the student could go in and read what the teacher has to say.

This is a scheduling tool teachers can use when setting up a collaborative work meeting. A teacher could use this because one user creates the Doodle and shares the link with other. Here, everyone can share availability to determine the best meeting date.

This gives teachers a place to connect with other teachers of similar subject and content areas. This gives teachers a support group and an outlet to share ideas.

Alot of interesting ideas for group work and also how to get students involved in study groups

I chose this site because it has a wide variety of topics and different kinds of sites. I would use this more as a fun or laid back kind of activity (like if you need to use up a day inbetween units or right before a holiday break). The kids could find a game or site that interested them and just crusie around. Or, to make it a little more involved, they could find 15-20 facts that they find interesting that they never knew before.

This websire is a great way to get student involved and excited about science! it is motly for older students. there are links to to an "electronic zoo" which then has a bunch of links to lessons on alot of animals in the animla kingdom made by teahers and students to be interactive and interdisciplinary. There is also a website link that would be perfect for students who are truely interested in science and teaches them about how math is integrated in science. There are also links to games that kids can classify critteres and a dust explorations.

Apples for teachers is more then just a website it helps keep the teacher informed on all the new resources available for their students. This website is for teacher that teaches all grade levels in elementary. This site has fun activities do to with their students. It also haves new articles related to education, stories and research available to them by this site.

I chose this site because of the unique topics they have. Things like Groundhogs Day, and Chinese New Years, which may fit perfectly into your lesson, but, may be hard to find material on. This site is also neat because it has games you can have the students play, or it has things like coloring pages that you can print out (which may work better if you don't have access to enough computers for all your students to play on at once).

This website is a great resource for elementary teachers to use. This website has many things to offer for all subject area. It has lesson plans and planning, curriculum, professional readings, and many other things. It also has a link to where a teacher can get free books, how to build a website and contest that their students can enter in.

This is a great site for math lessons. They also have feedback on lesson plans and how they worked for the teachers that used them.

This was a very user friendly website. It allowed for teachers to pick the grade levels and the subject area that they needed a lesson plan for.

I liked this website because it offered professional development links and conventions. It also had classroom resources that ranged from K-12.

Great website for teaching upper grades and upper elementary. It has links for both students and teachers. It also has lessons for mentors.

This would be a good website for teachers to find different ideas for lessons. It offers multiple links to other sites that contain grammar and vocabulary work.

Awesome games for spelling, typing, phrases, etc. This would be a great website for students to work on at home or during downtime in the computer lab.

Loved this website! It was great for teaching strategies in reading. It also had a part on the website that was designed just for the students.

This website gives advice on how to measure students skills in physical education from preschool-high school. It also offers ideas for park and recreation and after school programs. It was kind of interesting.

This website has several links for activities going on in different classrooms. It also offers scholarships, careers, newsletters, and journals for physical education.

Hotchalk is a great website to find lesson plans for all ages. This website has a collection of over 4,000 lesson approved by other teachers. It is very easy to use all you need to do is type in a key word such as apples and all the lesson plans on apples will come up.

This is a great webiste for lesson planning. This site offers real lesson plans used by real teachers in the classroom. You can search for lesson plans and filter searchers by subjects or grades. I will use this to come up with lesson plans to use in my own classroom.

I chose this site because it's live action and really interesting for students. I've used this site for students in relation to science courses before. We were doing a habitat/wildlife unit in science, and we would watch the eagles (and at the time their eggs and then babies) and talk about their habitat and patterns in relation to what we were learning. It made our lessons relevant to them and another living thing which is SO important to do with students.

I chose this site, more than anything, becuase it's fun and it's games. I'd use this site as more of a reward or an educational time killer. Kids love to go to the computer lab and they love to play games. With this site you can also make sure that they are practicing math. You could also say that they have to play addition games, or fraction games, or whatever it is that you're studying in class to give them all the practice they can get.

Play with math and give your brain a workout! Math Playground is filled with 100s of math games, logic puzzles, math word problems and step by step videos. Practice addition, multiplication, fractions, problem solving, decimals, algebra, geometry and more. Their learning games are wholesome, fun and challenging.

I choose this site because it has fun and easy math games for grades 1st through 6th. This site can be used in my future classroom by having the students work on the games during their free to help them study and understand math in a more inviting way.
