numero tres


okay, so I have to admitt that I enjoyed reading chapter three. why you might ask. we'll I'll tell you (because I have to:) I found the chapter to be very useful to a student like myself who strives to be an excellent teacher someday in the near future. As I mentioned before, I want to make a web page for my class. So that I can post some cool links for my students to see, so that my students and I can keep in touch outside of the classroom , and so that we can have a more personal relationship.. because I want my kids to think I'm cool. who deosn't, right? well I like that at the end of the chapter it shows you how to create a web page step by step.
this chapter also made me want to purchase a blackberry (again) and the neat paint/image software. you know, i use to want to be an art teacher, when i was like 8. no seriously. I wonder why that changed. well now I can pretend to be one when I purchase the software:)
on a serious note though, all the education softwares are great. it just amazes me to see how much easier it is to teach when you have a computer and all these great tools that make the teaching and learning experience so much better and fun. now to go to a class, like a lecture class (unless the teacher is hilarious), that doesn't use a computer instead of a board, seems so boring. am I right?

We use a program similar to blackboard at my school. It's really easy to use. I setup a site last year and have big plans for it. Here's a link:

Chapter 3 was a refresher to me and very cool to know that there are so many cool software out there for students and teachers to use.
