week 7 podcast

1. Tech Integration
Episode Title: Digital Projects for the Classroom
Date: July 25 2006
Episode Number:
8
Reflection: It was interesting to see the various projects that teachers were able to have their students make using various digital media software. I agree with the one teacher who stated that using technology, especially software, helps students to problem solve. I definitely see that in myself as I learn more about the different programs that are available. These projects are excellent samples for teachers who need to find some way to incorporate more interesting technology projects into their classroom.


2. Tech Integration
Episode Title: A 4th Grade Poetry Book
Date: May 12 2006
Episode Number:
6
Reflection: This podcast shows some examples of what can be done by students making their own podcast. It was interesting too hear how the student could have control over what content they want and how they can integrate their own interests, such as music, to their podcast. I think that teachers could easily have their students make their own podcast where they read a story or do something they enjoy.

3. Tech Integration

Episode Title: Hey we have a forum!
Date: July 31st 2006
Episode Number:
9
Reflection: I personally enjoy forums. I think that they are an excellent way to exchange ideas and to allow the easy flow of information. I also liked the website that was included in this podcast for Kid Vid. It has a lot of great tools and templates that can be used to teach kids of a large variety of ages what it takes to create their own video. It is truly helpful for a teacher if they are looking for ideas or tools to use in their classroom to make sure that a lesson over creating a video is successful.
