Week 1

Week 1

I found the unit, technologies across the curriculum really interesting and different from the other units in the course.. Before the first workshop I  had very little clue about blogs  as I never had used one before. I think blog is a very fun and interactive way of learning for students.Using a blog we don't have to worry about time and place. Hence we can work on it anywhere and not just in the class.  Parents and teachers can look at the student's work and see how they are doing. I think the other benefit is the advantage of comparison of work.The students can compare and give feedback on each others profile.Blogs make the students an active participant throughout the course and also improve in their writing and reflection skills.

The inspiration program found to be a really fun way of learning. It will be very good visual way of learning different concepts. I think it works with all the subjects across the curriculum.I think it will help improve  writing, reading and thinking skills. It will be suitable for students from grade 1-6. The first image shows the different music instruments. This exercise will help students to learn about the music instruments and more importantly the sound of the instruments which I found is really amazing and an advantage of the software.The mind map shows the different ways of learning. This makes the students understand what are the different ways of learning and figure out their strengths in learning. Because its like a map I think it will be easier to learn and understand the concepts.This will improve their cognitive ability as well..
