I think having a blog and sharing your ideas is so important within the educational field . To keep up to date with what is occurring within the field which is always changing . To give both you and your students a voice. This blog can be shared among parents, faculty, colleagues, and even students. This is an edublog , friendly and easy to use for people of all ages and backgrounds. These are my thoughts that have spanned throughout the semester. Giving your students a voice can improve their self worth, increase their interest in their studies, and promote collaboration. ]]> 2022-04-28 12:14:13 UTC https://padlet.com/naomiokenn/u7cpp13yf2x7b9am/wish/2162047573 naomiokenn https://padlet.com/naomiokenn/u7cpp13yf2x7b9am/wish/2162069194 This semester student teachers were also able to explore in different ways how we can present content to students both In- Person and/ or Virtually. One tech friendly method we explored this semester was through using Screen-Castify. This tool was used for screen recording and speaking over a particular tech tool presentation. This tool allows teachers to easily upload what they want to say within any given Powerpoint. Students can click on the Screen-Castify within a presentation. Share the video with one another, or limit who they want to see the video (such as the teacher ).They can also create their own Screen-castify account and share their own thoughts for multiple projects . This is another virtually friendly way of presenting information. This was a very easy to use tech tool, that allowed me to provide visual learning or auditory learning aides. Teachers have the freedom to really model for students in a way they might not be able to in a virtual school or in person setting. ]]> 2022-04-28 12:17:45 UTC https://padlet.com/naomiokenn/u7cpp13yf2x7b9am/wish/2162069194 naomiokenn https://padlet.com/naomiokenn/u7cpp13yf2x7b9am/wish/2162132695 Have you ever wanted to give your students a visual voice? Allow them to explore material they are learning in class through a creative and self - directed manner ? One way that you can give your students that opportunity is by using the App Canva both within your classroom and out ! Canva is an excellent way to check for understanding. Canva has so many beautiful graphic images great for creating posters and infographics ! I truly enjoyed using Canva to create this infographic about why digital literacy is important within school. Students will love knowing they have the choice to express themselves ! Teachers will love to know that they are meeting their goals and collecting work that expands their Teaching Goals!]]> 2022-04-28 12:23:02 UTC https://padlet.com/naomiokenn/u7cpp13yf2x7b9am/wish/2162132695 naomiokenn https://padlet.com/naomiokenn/u7cpp13yf2x7b9am/wish/2162147308 A few colleagues and I explored one particular Math Game on a website called ABCya! We analyzed this game through an educational analytical lens. Exploring certain features of the game we worked together to break down the technical , instructional and theoretical benefits of incorporating Math games into an Elementary Curriculum .]]> 2022-04-28 12:24:14 UTC https://padlet.com/naomiokenn/u7cpp13yf2x7b9am/wish/2162147308 naomiokenn https://padlet.com/naomiokenn/u7cpp13yf2x7b9am/wish/2162183929 This is an Adobe Express Video I created to talk a little bit about myself in the form of a poem. The purpose of this assignment was to explore how students can engage with this technology , to create their own "I Am Poems" or work with Adobe Express for any project or homework assignment. I really enjoyed this project because it gave me so many ideas on ways I can customize lesson plans. The App was student and teacher friendly. I was able to add color, text, pictures, and other details that personalized my own experience. This project is enjoyable for students who are motivated visually, and lends them a voice in a unique way.]]> 2022-04-28 12:27:15 UTC https://padlet.com/naomiokenn/u7cpp13yf2x7b9am/wish/2162183929 naomiokenn https://padlet.com/naomiokenn/u7cpp13yf2x7b9am/wish/2162330541 During one assignment we developed a lesson plan to encourage the use of technology within the classroom. I think this Lesson Plan is a great example of how seamless this process can become. Media can be incorporated within any English language learning course. Students will engage with a YouTube video and Powerpoint that the teacher will present moving on to promptly work on their own "Stop Light Method" Canva ! I personally believe giving students the opportunity to produce their very own Stop Light method poster helps them review the content creatively. ]]> 2022-04-28 12:39:18 UTC https://padlet.com/naomiokenn/u7cpp13yf2x7b9am/wish/2162330541
