BLOG POST #14

Jose Picardo's Top Ten List





1. Streaming Video
2. Music
3.Teleconferencing
4. Interactive Exercises
5. Interactive Whiteboard
6. Podcasts
7. Blogs and Wikis
8. Social Networks
9. Internet Tools
10. Gadgets

I have thought of the options for using most of these in my classroom. I am a Secondary Ed major so I have yet to see applications, but I am looking! I have thought of ways to using Streaming Video in my daughter's school. They have an Upper School on one campus and a Lower School on another campus. St. Luke's is always looking for ways to "mingle" the campuses. I think that video streaming would be a great way to create an educational "bridge"!

I had not thought of using Music in the classroom. I am going to research how I could possibly use music that the students like to teach. Maybe it could be done during a creative session...? Who knows, but now my interests is piqued!

Teleconferencing is another thing that could create a bridge between the two campuses. Even having a lower school teacher "tele-teach" for one block! That would be kind of cool! It would also shake things up in the class room and keep it interesting. That is something as a teacher we can't forget --- we have to engage the students in learning... sometimes this might mean a "shake up!"

The other things I have already thought of ways to implement into my classroom. Especially Twitter! I am crazy about Twitter and so are students! If I can create a Facebook, Twitter, and Blog for my students learning will be much more fun and my ability to interact with the students will be a better experience.

I have added this list to my Delicious account! So excited!
