Picasa, Powerpoint, and Google Documents will be very useful in my future career as a teacher. By using these guides they will provide me with variety of teaching tools. It will open the way for those students who learn using different senses.
Picasa; a photo editing and webalbum posting application will create a fun bond in the classroom. As we post different pictures from the past summer, thanksgiving, Christmas, and spring break my students will be able to learn more about each other. More importantly, my students will learn the different ways they can manipulate photos to show the emotions they felt during the exact moment they took their photographs. I will be able to show my students photos I've taken that apply to certain lesson plans.
Powerpoint is a wonderful application that can be used in the classroom. It is used to post pictures as well as important text and used to teach a specific idea. By using powerpoint I can truly affect visual learners. I can show examples of the subjects I am teaching and make the lesson more personal.
By using Google Documents I will be able to better collaborate with coworkers and students. By using Google Documents as a POD we worked together to create a slideshow. It was so convenient and quick. I look forward to using this application more in the future.
I loved this week's video. It was so funny! And I have to say, I completely agree with the things the man was talking about. I absolutely hate it when teachers make powerpoints and put up their exact words; so boring. This man says the bad things about using powerpoint, while giving hidden pointers at what makes a powerpoint slidshow good.
