post #10

While reviewing my classmates' blogs I noticed that many people wrote about how videos and visual aids enhance a lesson plan. I agree with this. I think some students do learn better when presented a visual aid. It gives another way of explaining a subject that maybe not everyone understands or the video can be just a fun side note for a lesson. Everyone put a lot of effort into their blog posts and I think the assignment was successful.

The technology-related skill I would like to learn next would be learning how to use a scanner. I have a scanner on my printer and I have never used it. I think it could come in handy for the classroom. You can scan pictures into the computer to add into handouts and worksheets. You can also combine things by using a scanner. Sometimes it could be more effective than just a copy machine. I would like to know how to properly use my scanner and how it could benefit my classroom.

In order to achieve my future educational technology-related goals, I can ask someone who specializes in educational technology for help. I can also read articles on the internet for help, advice, and inspiration. Also, my classmates and colleagues are great resources. We can all work together and help each other benefit from things we know and others may not.
