Blog Post #2

  Did You Know

Did You Know- by John Strange was a very interesting video. Most of the facts that was posted in this clip were very alarming. Like most of the people living in the United States, I cant believe another country would have just as many english speaking students as the United States. India has just as many honor students and they dont have a quater of the population as we have. The United States better get it together before we are found behind the world playing catch up.

I feel becomming a educator will require lots of learning computers. Computers have become the center of all learning in the world. Everywere you go there are computers being use. People in the world that dont have any knowledge of computers will sadly find their self out of work. After watching this video I feel that I am ready to accept the challenge of becomming a great educator.

Mr. Winkle Wakes

Mr. Winkle Wakes- by Mathew Needleman:I found Mr. Winkles very amusing as well as informative. I really dont understand why he slept so long. He missed a great deal I advancement of technology. In the hospital he was very confused on the usefulness of the respirator. Only if he really knew how many life it has saved.

When he went to the school, he felt comfortable. He was in a zone where he could relate. This shows how far behind the school system is in todays world. There was only one computer in the whole class room, and there wasn't a person using it. School systems are stuck in the stone age with pen and paper.

The Importance of Creativity

The Importance of Creativity- by Sir Ken Robinson:Ken Robinson says that schools kill creativity. The way he explains it makes good sense. How can we educate our kid for a world that we really don't understand. The world is changing to fast. We really need to keep up in order to teach our kids.

Ken Robinson hinks that dance is just as important as math. In public education systems the most useful subject for work are at the top. They do this to meet the needs of indutrialism. He belives this is profoundly mistaken. We have to rethink the the fundamental principals on which we are educating our children.

A Day Made of Glass 2

A Day Made of Glass 2-is a very beautiful peice of work. Seeing the kids come to school so excited to learn was great. Having the glass pads makes learning a event that the kids will never forget. I think in the near future some of this technology will become posible to use in the future. This video makes me realize how important it is to get computers in each and every classroom.

The medical aspect of the video was very detailed and the glass technology would be a great help to the doctors as well. By useing the glass it would keep down the infection and the spread of germs. This glass technology would be great for the world in a good way. I hope that I am around to see some of this technology being use in the world.

  2. Bryonn,
    I thought your post was really good. I think you should just proofread and watch the punctuation. The comments left were good. I really have a hard time doing this just to let you know. Just really work on proofreading before you let it go out.
