Technology is just a tool. In terms of getting the kids working together and motivating them, the teacher is the most important.

Just For fun



Just because I enjoyed using this Web 2.0!!! - I really am one of the luckiest girls in the world!

Final Project - Digital Movie

As my final project in TPTE 486 I was asked to make a video that i could incorporate into my classroom somehow. I decided to discuss why I am so passionate about teaching and what my motivation behind teaching stems from. There is some signing in the video as well - which  I hope to be 'ASL' accurate.

Animoto - Slide show

 I made this video slide show using Animoto. I connected my Facebook to it and it automatically started pulling the pictures and captions from Facebook. Then, you have the option to edit the video in different ways. Essentially you can make any video you can thing of that is 30seconds or less for FREE!
