After reading
several of Davids
blog entries on 2 cents Worth of Seeking The Shakabuku.
Made me realize how important it is to me to keep up a blog during my college
career and my future teaching. A particular blog entry that stood out to me the
most was title “The Game” is was how a going to school and seeking a career is
a game and knowing how to play it by making good grades not just by memorizing
the answers but by actually learning.
In my college
career, I feel I can use this tool of blogging to enter experiences in student
teaching and knowledge gain from those experiences and ways to improve myself
and ask fellow future teachers what they think. I my future teaching career I
would love to use this tool as a way my students can engage with other students
outside the classroom. Also the way David posted he video on his blog I would
love to email with my blog to my future students parents with a welcome video
and a what to expect video, in order to prepare them for the first day of
school. The possibilities of what one could do on the blog are infinite,
just learning how to do them is the problem :)
I thought the video was neat as well! I was thinking about using a video as tool for additional instruction, or to introduce a new unit to the students. I never thought of a "welcome video" this is genius! From the first day students and parents are put into an environment which is creative, and educational. Such a good idea!
