This concept focuses on the different multimedia that are available for students. For instance, everybody is familiar with Power point but now there are greater tools available such as Prezi, and Animoto. I personally enjoy using Prezi, it's a very fun and creative website that allows me to create different presentations. It's great that they are many different sources able for students because it makes fun and allows the students to be creative and use different tools. ]]> 2016-10-23 02:12:57 UTC https://padlet.com/lesleyrosales692/em8j2nodhyht/wish/132518474 Second Concept lesleyrosales692 https://padlet.com/lesleyrosales692/em8j2nodhyht/wish/132518753 The second concept that I will focus on is Podcasts and Vodcasts as tools For teaching. Podcasts and Vodcasts are audio recording that is heard online and can be accessed through computers. This is a great tools for students because  it's another method that makes learning fun. With podcast students are able to listen to different recording about certain subjects or topics. This is a great tool because majority of students hear podcasts on a daily basics, so it's something that there familiar with and enjoy using.

This is when teacher combine spoken words with visuals or written text with audio simulations and models. This is a fantastic way to incorporate technology and teaching. " Students engaged in learning that incorporates mutilmodal designs, on average, out perform students who learn using traditional approaches with single modes."(Mertiri Group. 2008,p.13). With this method it allows the students to visually see what the lesson is about rather than reading it from the textbook ]]> 2016-10-23 02:34:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lesleyrosales692/em8j2nodhyht/wish/132518834
