Week 7


What did you discover? After viewing Richard Byrne’s blog I realized that there are so many resources out there that I don’t even realize. I absolutely love his blog/site and can’t wait to share it with others. I really like the video creation resource tab that he had on his site. There were a lot of very useful resources to use when creating videos, I think this would also be useful for many of my students to use since we do a small unit on PowerPoint as well as making a youtube video. I also really like the Bubbly Ply information and tutorial on how to use it. Lots of wonderful information!!

What would be useful in your classroom? As stated earlier the information and tips on video creation. I think the kids will really benefit from this site and not just myself.  There is also a website suggested called Dance Mat typing that would be great for the students to use since I do a lot of keyboarding skills in my classroom.

Could you make a blog that would be a great resource for your students? I think I could make a blog that would be a great resource for my students. There are a lot of typing and keyboarding sites out there that the students could use if they wanted to practice at home. I would also like to put some screenr videos on my site so when students are gone or if they don’t understand the steps the first time they can watch the video for more practice or to make up anything they missed if they were gone.

What are your thoughts? I thought this was a wonderful thing and am very excited that I know about it now. I am going to tell some of my coworkers about this site because I think there are a few that would really benefit from this site, depending on their core area.
