1. Technology Integration being explained to a parent is about using new technologies in the classroom to help improve and better your child's education. There are many different things being used in the classroom nowadays than there were back when the children's parents were in school. Teachers now use Promethean Boards which are a really cool way to teach lessons.
2. I would maybe use the computer hooked up to the Promethean Board and show some videos to the classroom. I could also teach a lesson from a video off the internet to the classroom.
3. Hardware: keyboard and Software: word processor. Browser: Internet Explorer Search Engine: Google Spread Sheet: Excel Database: Access
4. I think the most important is plagiarism. When we used the Turn it in website. I think that is a very good website to use.
5. Partners to me always depends on the partner you get. If you get to choose your partner then yes, it is a good idea. In a class like this, you will get to know everybody whether you are their partner one time or not.
6. A technology based activity could be going to watch almost anything outside of the classroom that uses video cameras or picture cameras. My dance recital is a good thing to watch. We have many technologies being used all around.
7. Twitter wasn't so bad. It was just that our phone was hooked up and even after the announcement was made not to text after 9 p.m. tweets were still being sent. So, I think just make sure that people know what time to send the tweets.
8. I now know how to use the flip camera and how to upload it. If I wasn't in this class I would have never known how to do that.
9. I really do not know. I cannot really think of anything at the moment.
10. The most that was beneficial to me was actually learning how to make a rubric and learning more about different websites.

Google Groups
Google groups are a good way of communicating. This feature is better than twitter I think. It is much easier to use and an easy way to learn more about our classmates. With google groups, you do not have to use your phone, it is only accessed on your computer which is a lot better.

Adaptive Technologies
Scene 1
Students have many different learning styles. Every single student is in some way different. Some students may have to learn by auditory lessons. These learners learn the best from reading text aloud and using a tape recorder. There are many different types of activities you can find to help you in the different learning styles of your students. I was just using the auditory learning style as an example since it was being talked about in the article.
Scene 2
To find someone to be comfortable with is sometimes hard to do. The teacher has found someone that she is comfortable with and can help her improve her lessons to help her students. Marilyn talked about what she wanted and Juanita came up with what to do. Juanita's lessons help her class and they always include Oscar's needs. This can also show how students can be comfortable in coming up and asking their teachers things when they are in need.
Scene 3
Marilyn's use of a graphic organizer is a great idea. This will enhance her lesson a lot. The students will be working together which most students like to work together. Also, the graphic organizer is to break down everything. It shows a clearer picture to the students. When things are broken down it helps students understand better. She had her students label the characters, setting, problem, solution, and virtue on their graphic organizers. The use of the graphic organizer will help Oscar because he is an auditory learner. He will be able to hear what is on the the graphic organizer instead of just having to read it if one was already done.
Scene 4
Using the Web to locate information is sometimes confusing and hard. You have to know exactly what you are looking for or else weird things come up and you have no idea what to click on. Your subject you look for cannot be too broad or that won't work either. Difficulties that might be addressed by using a Web Quest could be like any other website. Some students may not be able to access the Web Quest from outside the classroom. Inside the classroom may be their only way of getting access to the Internet.
Scene 5
The students benefited from being with Oscar that day, they also benefited from learning about the Eric Carle books, and learning from Juanita. Students will always benefit from being with other students and learning different things. All of the students achieved so much from this day. Juanita had tiered a certain part of the lesson and targeted the other four students with different levels of books. Oscar's speech was a phenomena this day. No, I do not think Oscar's experience would have been as powerful if he would have worked in isolation with Juanita. Most of the time, these kids who have ailments, are kept in isolation. I think they should be included every now and then with the lessons. It does make a difference to the student when he or she is around other students. They do know the difference.
Scene 6
Marilyn seems to always have her students up and running. Her students had the Web Quest down pat by now and were using it to find some data about and author/artist. They answered questions to a video from Eric Carle. Now her students have to publish a book in the spirit of Eric Carle that would incorporate the wild animals and habitats in science. Then her students created a "dummy book." Her students also created an iMovie. Her students were very excited and anxious to do this.

USM Game at OS field
There were many technologies being used at this game as any other game. Of course there was a scoreboard, not being used at this particular game but it does work and it was on. Before the game started there were men introducing one another on microphones and thanking everyone for coming out to watch the team. There was also the coaches that used their headsets. This is so that each coach can communicate to one another across the field. A video camera was on the sidelines videoing and there was a camera on a crane above the field videoing. All in all, there were a lot of technologies being used and it was a fun time.

Word World Build-A-Word - CAKE
www.youtube.com
type word world and click on the cake video... there are many other videos too.
I am interested in teaching Kindergarten. That is why I picked this video. My niece is in Kindergarten right now and I make her watch these videos. They help so much. If a child knows the video is about learning they will probably not want to watch it. That is why you do no tell them and you just let them enjoy the video and learn. I love this show.

Sexting
"Sexting" is the craziest word I have ever heard and I have never heard this word before this class last week. I do not know why kids think that it is cool to send nude pictures to their boyfriends because it is not cool. Parents have no clue what their children are getting into nowadays and that is sad. Parents should really check the computer and see what kind of sites their kids are getting onto. You should never think that your child is doing nothing wrong, they might not be, but it wouldn't hurt to check would it?
Video Questions
1. I am mostly a low hostile person, but I can be a high hostile person. 2. In school, the aggressors in my life would be deadlines and tests. That is what stresses me out the most. 3. The man seemed to me the most hostile and angry. 4. I should just lower my stress a little. I don't have much though. It is just school. 5. High blood pressure, stroke, heart disease.

Caitlin's Dance Story
Dance studios are all around the world. There are so many of them it is too hard to count. But, there is this one studio in Mississippi, named Donna's Visual and Performing Arts Studio that a young girl Caitlin attends. In this story, I will explain to one what Caitlin does and what this studio tries to teach each and every one of their students.
At Donna's, Caitlin has many dance teachers. Her teachers are: Mrs. Donna, Mrs. Jenelle, and Ms. Priscilla. From these teachers she learns: Jazz, Tap, Ballet, Lyrical, and Contemporary. Caitlin absolutely loves to dance. It is her passion.
Caitlin is also on the competition company. This is where dancers have to audition and if he or she make it they are on the company. This person will be able to travel all over to different places, learn choreography from many famous dance teachers, and taking their own dances learned by their teachers and competing. This is where Caitlin's teachers have their ups and downs about dancers. Her teachers try to explain it over and over that, "If you dance with your heart you are the best dancer you can be." Caitlin's teachers do not want dancers in their company if they are only in it to win. "Nobody can win all the time." her dance teacher's say. When dancing with your heart on stage, it shows so much more, than if you are on stage just to win.
Caitlin attends these competitions every year, more than once a year. She enjoys is so much. After taking classes all day, known as convention, Caitlin gets ready to compete. She gets huge butterflies in her belly every time before going on stage, as if she has never been on the stage before. Her teachers sometimes think she is silly for getting so nervous! After a couple competitions go by, Caitlin starts to win with her solo. Of course she gets excited, but everyone would get excited when they win right? She started noticing how other dancers, not from her studio, were getting upset walking away when they did not win. To Caitlin, this was a suprise. "Why be sad?" Caitlin would ask herself . "It is just a trophy."
Some people only do certain things because they want to win. People sometimes forget about how great their talent is because they just want rewards in the end. But, this is the whole point of the story. Caitlin never cared about her trophy and nobody should. All Caitlin wants to ever do is get on that big stage and dance. She wants people to watch her do what she loves. Because like her teachers said, "If you dance with your heart you are the best dancer you can be."

Meta-Search Engines
I had no clue what a Meta-Search engine was before we talked about it. It seems that they do provide you with more information and material than a search engine. When you use a Meta-Search engine you get a list of different engines you can click on. This helps you a whole lot more than a regular search engine.

Cramberry
I would definitely use Cramberry in my classroom in the future. I think it is a great way for students to get online to make flashcards. The teacher can also get on there and make the cards and then the students login and study. Cramberrry is a good website.

Second Life
I think second life is pretty cool. It is a great and different way of using technology. I unfortunately could not get my character.. go figure. I have tried and tried. It keeps telling me that my name can only contain numbers and letters. Well, I know that. All in all, I do think second life will be cool when I can actually create my character and get to play around with it! I just want to be able to do it!

My Opinion on the ACU IPhone
I think the IPhone is a great idea! It shows and tells you everything on the phone that you need to know, with the campus. With the way they have the IPhone programmed, you won't have to worry about getting on the computer all the time to check for updates. I also think it is great how you get updates from your teachers too. That way you don't drive all the way to class and then it is canceled. It is also really cool how the IPhone being like a computer, you can have some of your classes be online. The only thing I see that could be any kind of wrong is that I do not think all of your classes should be online. Students need some kind of interaction in the classroom.

Web 2.0
According to Penn State Learning Design, Web 2.0 is short for "Web Log", this is a site where people post their reflections on whatever they like (not necessarily technology or education). Two key features are the ability for other people to post comments to another person's blog and the ability to subscribe to new posts in a blog using RSS. http://ets.tlt.psu.edu/learningdesign/web20glossary
The two websites that I found were Web 2.0 and I think can be a great way of using in the classroom are Kidoz.net and kids.audible.com. Kido'z is a protected environment made for young kids that enables children to surf sites, watch videos, and play games. The system blocks links, scripts, and any other attempts that lead to sites and content which have not yet been approved preventing them being viewed by the children. Audible kids is an engaging fun story telling system through audiobooks online. Listen to books, read, and share your thoughts with others. I picked these two out because one day I hope to teach little kids and I think these sites will be great to use!

Technology in Early Education
I definitely think using technology the right way in early chilhood education is a great idea. I found an article supporting my idea. The article talks more about using computers in the classroom. The ways this can helop is: social and emotional development, language development, physical well-being development, motor development, cognition and general knowledge. After looking at that list, what do you think is missing? In my opinion I think nothing is left out. Using computers helps all of these things approve. Some people have grown up not know how to use a computer at all. That is because computers were not as big as they are now. Our kids will know how to do and use things on the computer way better than we will probably ever know. But, like I said earlier, when used the right way I think they are a great idea. By the right way I mean, the computers should not take away from any social interaction and conversation with other students. All in all, I think using computers early on is a great idea!

Tools in Chapter 3
The four tools that were talked about in Chapter 3 were Word Processing, Spreadsheets, Databases, and Concept-Mapping. Word Processing helps teachers and students will spell check, it has a thesarus, and grammar check. This helps teachers by giving another form of assistance to students in the classroom. Spreadsheets are an arrange way of horizontal rows and vertical columns. This would be best used in a math or science subject. It also helps by making these subjects a little more interesting. Databases are used in the school system for filing of students' files. Concept-Mapping is a visual way to think, write, and comprehend. One of their websites is inspiration.com which is something we are starting to learn about in here. It is showing us how to build outlines by combining pictures and text.
