Song Battle

OK so this weeks song battle is going to be focused on PJ. better known as Pearl Jam. This band was formed in 1990.
While Nirvana had brought grunge to the mainstream in the early 1990s, Pearl Jam quickly outsold them,[128] and became "the most popular American rock & roll band of the '90s"
People have mixed feelings about PJ but I personaly love the music they magicaly make.
1st Song-Yellow Ledbetter 2nd Song-Daughter

E-Portfolio Plan

Part 1-10% Planning
Why have you chosen to complete an e-potfolio?
-easy to update new information
-my employers can look at my portfolio at their own leisure and time.
-can easily add pictures or videos to an online portfolio rather than burning them to a disk and handing it in with my paper copy.
-having links to all my plans and projects is much more efficient then handing in a bulky paper copy.

What professional uses does an e-portfolio have for you?
-access at anytime
-being up to date with technology
- taking the time to learn and create an e-portfolio will be of interest for employers

What content do you plan to include?
-resume –intern report –transcripts –
-personal biography –teaching experience
-projects and lessons I taught
-philosophy on education
-links to other I.A. sites

What graphics design considerations have you taken into account for the look of your e-portfolio?
-good balance of pictures and text with easy navigation
-not to flashy(keeping it simple)
I’m going to start with a home page with my philosophy and some pictures and then on the left I will have links to things like my resume, intern report, plans ect. then on the left I will have links to other sites on the web that deal with Industrial arts.

adios till next time ..keep a look out for the next song battle!

Essay Proposal

In my essay I will be talking about the problem of cheating in the classroom. I will be focusing on plagerism and copywriting. There are so many situations and issues involved around stealing other peoples work and claiming it as your own. I can alos look at privacy issues involved. I beleive it is a problem right now and what does this mean for the future?

Wikipedia Update

Hey all. I have just recently went into Wikipedia and under the Montgomery Place I have changed an update to the community about keeping the yards large and no further subdivisions.

Review of Bloom's Taxonomy

Knowledge: 1)Students can collaborate on new ideas and learning
2) Professionals in the area can comment on the blogs
3) Easily up datable to ensure knowledge is readily available.

Comprehension:
1) A new type of learning environment.
2) No time contraints on posting(post at any point and time)
3)E-learning is the way of the future...why not get them started early.

Application:
1) Easy to facilitate discussion within your class.
2) Good reference abilities( posting links)
3) Can stay in contact with other professionals.

Analysis:
1) Yes they are because there is room for discussions and editing. Websites are just information that you can take but blogs can be more of a give and take relation.

Synthesis:
1) Blogging can bring you all over the world. Your presence as a teacher is more evident. People can read and add anything to blogs all over the world.blogs will become a major part of students lives both for socializing and educating themselves an others.

Evaluation:
1) Lost of social skills
2) No concrete guideline or manners on blogs
3) less of a roll for teachers in the traditional sense
