Today in our EDU 3040 class we took a Quiz #5 over Chapter 7. Today was the day that our Website Evaluations were due. I evaluated three, quite different educational websites. My websites were: http://www.emtech.net/index.shtml, http://www.eduhound.com/ and http://www.educationworld.com/. Each person in our class had three sites to evaluate. These sites have practically unlimited information on how to integrate technology into your own classroom. These sites had lesson plans, links to good educational sites and educational clip art. The best thing about these sites is that they are free to use and the sites are easily navigated.
Today in class our class activities were:
· Evaluating educational technology software, source of information, and web recourses
· Evaluating the effectiveness of technology integration
· Assessment tools
· Integration strategies · Curriculum integration activities
· Workshop: Creating your own blogs and wikis on your own web page
Here is a good site to go to to learn how to blog using this site: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnploFsS_tY. A good site to use to learn about Wiki's is the one that our instructor, Dr. Damiri used in our class: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dnL00TdmLY.
My favorite part of today's class was when we reviewed each educational website. I also really enjoyed the instruction about using Excel to make a grade book. Also, I am looking forward to learning about how to make a web page!
