C4T #2

Image via WikipediaMagic Wand Daneah Galloway whose blog is called The Thinking Chick posted about all the advancements in technology she has seen in her own life. From the Palm Pilot to VCRs and land-lines becoming obsolete. She then went on to talk about the changes that are being made and will be made in the classroom withing the next 10 years. Her closing statement said that if she had a magic wand, she'd use it to make it all a reality NOW! I posted the following:
"I enjoyed reading your post! At only 19 years old, I had a hard time understanding how much different things were 5-10 years ago. After all, I was 10 years old when my family got a DVD player. It's amazing to me how much things have changed. I can't wait to see what my own classroom will look like when I finish school. Although it's only a couple years away, I have hope that some of the things on that list truly will become obsolete! If I had a magic wand, I'd use it too!"


Teacher #2:  Mr. Ferlazzo uses his blog to present people with links to other educational tools. The one he provided in his most recent post was a link for Microsoft infographics, more specifically an example of an educational infographic containing school expenditures. I commented the following:
"Mr. Ferlazzo, I appreciate you sharing this infographic with me. My name is Jameson Branch and I'm an EDM 310 student at the University of South Alabama. I think these infographics are a great tool to captivate the interest of students. It's a fantastic way to take information that would perhaps otherwise be boring to students and make it presentable to them. I know it captured my attention."
