Using Technology in the Classroom

One thing that blogging could be useful for in the class room is to have students comments on the work we are doing in class weather it be during Health or PE. This comment could be about how fun or boring class is or idea they may have to make it the way they want it. I could create discussion boards about different topics and the students could log in and talk about their learning experiences. As I have stated I am a P.E./Health teacher so most of my blogging would come in my health class, but i would love students to tell me about PE and there concerns. The only problem is that at our school don’t have the most reliable equipment and some students don’t have the at home to require blogging.

The next idea that i would have is to make the blog were students can post their work and other students would be required to make comments to there peers work. These comments must be only positive. Our district requires that we grade students on personal communication and how they interact. This grading technique or sharing technique could surf ice and help aid with our district assessments.

Welcome to my first blog experience

HEY ALL,



Thanks for subscribing to my blog weather by choice or because you thought it would be interesting. I am a PE/Health teacher in Wyoming!! If your unfamiliar with where Wyoming is its in the mid-west north of Colorado and East of Utah!! I have been teaching for only a few years, but love and enjoy every minute of it. As of now I am working on my Masters degree in Integrating technology in the Classroom. It has required us to create a blog and to learn all about blogging. So far it seems really interesting and exciting. Well tune in soon to see whats new.



Thanks Again,



Trent
