About Me

I am currently a sophomore at the University of South Alabama. I am majoring in Secondary Education/Social Science. I plan on graduating in 2012 and then start my journey as an educator. I believe teaching is one of the most rewarding and important jobs so I will strive to be the best I can be. I look forward to teaching and plan on embracing the use of technology in the classroom. In a technological generation such as ours I believe it is important to keep up with students and what interest them.

Podcast and Videocast

When it comes to projects in the classroom I believe they should be fun and enjoyable. To me projects are areas to express creativity and explore information. Using podcast and videocast in the classroom would be extremely interesting for students. I think it would be informative for students to learn about podcast and videocast and how helpful they are. These two tools could help students learn more about certain topics in a classroom. With this project students would work as a group to do research on a topic then present their findings using a podcast or videocast. The students would not only learn about their own topic but also others when they present them to the class. I believe these tools would be very helpful in the classroom.
