I had never used Power Point before, and I am excited at the opportunities it presents for making material more interesting. Also, Google Images is amazing! What a treasure trove! I am looking forward to building on my skills and playing around with these ideas.
I thought that the exercise that we completed in small groups today was both thought-provoking and exciting! Our group spent a lot of time researching items from the poem we needed more background knowledge on. We then used this information and brainstormed our interpretations of what we thought the author was telling us. Taking the next step to find images that connect to our interprations required us to really use our creativity and critical thinking skills! :)
ReplyDeleteThe ideas shared when previewing the Power Points from the previous workshop gave me a lot of new ideas for implementing digital composition in my own classes. I'm looking forward to the next session to hear everyone's ideas for technology lesson plans.
Hello out there!
ReplyDeleteThanks to Dr. Jayne, I can ask this question:
How do you, who do so, use blogs in your class, especially in an off-line course?
Looking forward to hearing from you. . .
Happy St. Patty's
