5. I agreed with everything that Moersch was
saying especially the section on teachers
feeling uncomfortable using technology. Even
in many of my college classes teacher often
resort to student help when using items such
as the projectors and the various navigation
with websites and programs. I think from his
article to two most important technologies in
education include podcasting and blogging.
1.Technology is a emerging quality of the world
2. Education has to adapt as times change
3. Fresh new take on keeping student interested

7.  The article continues to
mention the positives
that result from using
podcast in the school
setting. Including the
option of the podcast
being used as a studying
device, resource for a
missed lecture and even
a personal tutor.
 The great thing about a
podcast is that most
have the option of live
feed via webcame.

8.  I love the idea of the podcast being integrated
into the educational field. Not only is this a
great newly forming technology it is also one
that can be used quickly, conveniently and
often. Not to mention that it is a cheap
inexpensive way to keep connected and
informed.
 Most of my online classes use the podcast
feature including the live via webcam feature to
complete projects, listen to lectures and a mean
of review for test and quizzes.
1.Expansion of Education Globally
2.Cheap/Inexpensive
3.Great study tool, personal tutor and creates better speaking skills

9.  The article by Stephen Downes defined blogging as
being the “virtual extension of the classroom” in the
way that it opens a students restricted setting to a
more open ended environment.
 “Blogging is an opportunity to exchange our point of
view with the rest of the world not just people in our
immediate environment.”
 Not only does blogging increase students skills with
typing, language, technology use and reading it also
creates a greater sense of culture.
 Blog in an educational setting can serve as a why for
teachers to post updates regarding test, answers to
questions, homework, pop quizzes and thing along to
manner as picture day or extracurricular events as
well. Click to cont…

10.  Blogging in an educational
setting is also a great way for
student as well as parents to
keep a personal journal of his
or her progress. With the fact
that blog are dated and most
often time-stamped this
feature allows students as
well as teachers to search via
date any specific item such as
topic, reading assignments,
pop quizzes and etc.
 Blogs also hold a strong sense
of security where passwords
and acceptance from a master
starter are a requirement
enabling security and the
comfort of privacy. Click for

11.  Blog to me is the best kept secret in any
educational field. Why not implement a tool in
which communication with parents, students and
employees would not only be faster and more
convenient but also organized. I love the options
of privacy as well as the ability to continually
keep in contact with particular individuals.
 This will probably be the most used feature in
my classroom when I become a teacher. Not only
is it a fun way for students to use technology; it
is a fun way for students to learn.
1.Fun
2.Easy
3.Convenient

 With a world constantly changing with various
technology, the same changes have to be made
within Education. As time call for a more
communicative environment, the same standards
have to be introduce, implemented and used
with our classrooms
 Technology is a new, fresh outlook of the future
of our classroom and the future of our students.
