I had soooooo much fun playing and learning how to use the smart board!!! As a teacher I really hope that I have access/a smartboard in my classroom because I will definitely take advantage of it. It is an awesome resource for the students.
Really mad and annoyed that the N drive ruined my group project. And I'm really frustrated that I have to re-do it. Oh well... I am looking foward to listening to the other group projects. So that's what I'm going to do right now.

Thinkfinity day
So today was just chalk full of excellent resources!
Thinkfinity is such a great resource! I wonder if I ever would have stumbled apon it if I was searching for lesson plans on the internet. I feel like I wouldn't have... Good thing I'm in this class! It will be really beneficial for my classes if I use some of the activities and lessons. Intel also has a lot of great stuff.
Really need to work on the group podcast!

obama: economic
I'm being extremely technologically advanced right now! I'm blogging this video straight from it's website.
Yet another day.
Getting some things together for the group podcast, and I thought I would post them here so that I can keep track of them:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/barackobama/3385846/Barack-Obama-His-most-memorable-soundbites.html
I think that it is going to be really difficult to make a killer podcast, but I hope that my group and I will succeed.
So, last class:
Making the podcast was soooo frustrating, but trying to figure it out on my own definitely taught me how to use it much better then if someone had just shown me how to use it. Liked the teaching technique, even though I wanted to throw the keyboard across the room.
Still overwhelmed with the amount of work, and there are so many stresses in terms of next year and figuring out my life and future! Ugh.

2nd class
So, reaction to the last class:
I'm assuming that we are going to learn how to make and everything about podcasts next class so that we can work in our groups to do the project. I am excited to make my first podcast and to learn something new. One of the girls in my group knows what a podcast is and it sounds cool.
I am a bit overwhelmed with both of my education classes this semester because they both entail a lot of work. I thought that I was going to have a nice last semester because I'm not taking many classes since I'm basically done- but thanks to my education classes I will be stressed and submerged in work the entire semester. :) But hopefully it will be worth it and will prepare me to become a teacher.
