week 3
Through reading this weeks study guide i found that there were many uses for the interent in education that i had never heard of before! like the computer white boards, i really found it interesting as to how advanced technology was and overall how advanced young children are with technology. As an example i went to visit my uncle in singapore recently and his 3yr old daughter has her own webpage and knows how to opperate it!!!!!!
The other thing this weeks lesson did was open my eys as to how technology is helping stuents of the 21st century learn and develop, for example some of the online projects and classroom resources listed just amazed me.
The workshop also revealed to me how important it is to understand how the internet works in order for the teacher to be able to help student. This really appied to me as im not too bad at using the computer, but as for knowing how it works…..well thats a different story…. so overall i found this workshop vary interesting as a lot of the information in the studyguides was very new to me.
