Hello! my fellow class mates I hope everyone had a great weekend. I really found chapter 6 to be very informative like I have stated in previous posts Im not to big on technology so I found this chapter to be very insighful. In chapter 6 of the text it discusses the use of educational tools that you can use via online that could help you better teach you students. In reading the chapter I came across some tools that I know I would want to use to be an effective teacher. The first one is educational websites I think educational websites are a great way for the students to stay ingaged as well as learn something informative in the process. Educational sites are a great way to help the teacher in the lesson planning process, some sites can be a guide into the lesson are the ending to a lesson. I think interactive videoconferencing is another great way to keep the students interest I think videoconferencing would be more effective to use in higher the higher grades or secondary level by maybe having a guest speaking etc. I also loved reading this chapter because it told the reader how to use the bookmark and favorites tools to name a few, I thought that was extremely helpful expecially to individuals that are beginning in there technology journey.
Question:
What is your favorite educational website?
Do you think educational websites are helpful to students?
Do you think you will implement educational website as a method to teach your class.
I definitely think educational websites are helpful to students. Educational websites that are interactive, informative, or appealing to students help bring static information to life. I enjoy incorporating a website or video into lessons when I can, and when I do, I found that students often request to watch a video several times.
