PowerPoint (Terrific)...
In the power point project i created a lesson plan for a 3rd grade science class. The project was to create an use different animations and fun with the tools power point offers. I had to use my imagination and creativity with this project which helped me explore those areas of my mind! My experience with this project helped me grow and learn the different tools and animations that power point had to offer. I've always known how to use power point, but some of the tools Dr.Smith showed us in class i didn't know existed and I'm glad he showed us these different ways. The format of this assignment i thought was hard to understand at first but when it got explained more i completely understood it. I thought presenting the project to our peers was a good way for us to learn how to talk in front of students and to gather ideas for the other classmates on how they think to teach. i really enjoyed seeing the other students projects and their creativity. Some of them i thought were really good and better than mine and i could learn from them on how to make mine more creative! Found this cheesy video on you tube about "what is energy" i thought it was funny and the kids would laugh about it. Also i found this website for the kids to explore with stories and different activities on Energy in the world. I thought it would be cool for the kids to explore this website.

My beliefs About Technology and Learning!
My beliefs about technology and learning is that all students should be given the opportunity to learn through books and technology. The reason is that the world is becoming more technological everyday and we now depend on the technology we are given. If students cant understand how to use a computer or how to search the Internet they will have future troubles with learning. Although not everything you find on the Internet is accurate you do have dependable sources to help find information to do research papers etc. I fully believe that computers should be used within the classroom throughout the day and their school career. It's not just for students either, teachers have the opportunity to learn how to use the new smart boards they have out that link with the computers. This way the teacher isn't hiding behind the computer screen when giving a lesson with a projector.

Important To Me
What is important to me about education is that i am attending school to be a teacher, and budget cuts within the united states is out of control what i don't understand is how we can cut education budgets but then expect children to be successful in school. The bigger the classrooms the less a teacher has to spend with other students. In the picture is an ideal size class room for me, this way there can be more one on one with the students.
