Teacher Pages
Schools now a days have websites where you find important information like what teachers they employ and what there standards are for their children and other useful things. I decided to look at my high school website to see how my old teachers identified themselves. As I looked at the website I saw a bunch of teachers that I had not seen when I attended the school and I was able to see a bunch of information like the degree's that they obtained. Also, each teacher wrote a little introduction that anyone can read to get to know them a little better.

When I become a teacher I intend to use technology as an aid most everyday both in and out of the classroom. For instance if you have read some of my other articles I am really big on making note sets in Quizlet so that kids can easily study and have pre-made tests that they can use to practice. Also, I plan to integrate google classroom into the curriculum to make homework and its grading process more streamlined and eco-friendly. There are other online apps and software that I will probably be using when I am in a class.
This week we also visited the tech sand box where we could use different new technologies that are making their way into the classroom. My favorite was the VR where you could immerse yourself in a premade environment. I was thinking that people could use the VR to experience speeches, wars, and other historical moments first hand. This way kids get a better feel for what they are studying because they can see what they are studying. The hardest thing about learning history is finding a way to relate to it and i think VR is a great way to help kids make those ties.

I like your ideas for uses of Augmented Reality. It could be super beneficial in the world of science and education! If i had the opportunity to immerse myself to practice my speech- that would be awesome!
ReplyDeleteI had never though about how AR could be used in education! I've only ever considered it as a video game. I think using it to experience historical events would be incredible!
