The first blog I chose from my colleagues blog reading is
Netiquette.xyz.com. This technology explains to the students the rules of using
social media and the internet. I chose this technology because it is important
that all students learn how to respect others in the areas of technology. They
will understand what is appropriate and what should not be shared or discussed
in their social interaction.
This technology can be used in the classroom to assist students with
communication skills in a conventional way. They will be able to discuss
concerns, research and offer resources to benefit all diverse classroom
students. The internet, as well as social media will give students the power to
collaborate with many valuable resources and other issues to enhance their
educational process.
The next technology is StudyStacks.com. StudyStacks are flash cards that
are used to assist students with learning and remembering information. These
cards can be used in a variety of subject areas. I chose this because this will
be an inexpensive way to give students an alternate learning game that they can
build on learning and sharing valuable information.
The game Studystack will be used to allow students to
have a study buddy and communicate information in a group or one on one. This
will be a low cost for students to obtain valuable information and assist with
their memorization skills.
The next technology I chose was Http://www.FilamentGames.com. This
is a game based learning that students can learn to information to assist in
varies subject areas. They can better understand math, social studies and other
academic areas. This will be used to give students the ability to understand
diversity and understand other students in a compassionate manner.
Good Day Dotsy,
ReplyDeleteAwesome Blog. I too found the Filament Games site to be a great way to enhance the education of the adult learner. Filament Games provides classroom resources, classroom activities with hands on games to supplement the students digital learning. There are several games to cover just about all the sciences, math and infection control. The "You make me sick!" – a bacteria and viruses learning game is my favorite. In addition, I wrote a blog on StudyStack.com. I saved that on my desktop because I plan on using that site soon. I think both of these are a great sites to introduce to my adult learners in my Health Science Education course. Thanks for the awesome Blog.
Respectfully,
Debra
