I took a commercial photography class a few semesters ago and i remember how i was so uninformed on something so simple as saving images to a cd. I think that for a lesson it could be important to touch upon things like saving your work. There is so much you can talk about between hard drives and images sizes.

Podcast in the Art Classroom

This is an example that I did of a podcast in the art classroom.  It was a great way to show students what to do.  I believe that this was very helpful to the students.

Interactivity # 5

In my interview I spoke with a woman who teaches Spanish to high school students.  She has only been teaching for five short years. When I began my survey I quickly realized she had no clue what the NET-S/ NET-T were. Before even continuing with my questioning she asked me to explain to her what they were.  I think she was more confused than shocked she was not aware of what it was. She was not aware if her school district began implementing the NET-S and or NET-T.  We continued by talking about what technology initiatives exist to increase students’ proficiency and media literacy. She explained that all rooms had projector but only most but not all have a few computers. The teacher explained that there has been talk about Smart boards perhaps being bought for some classes. I was not surprised by her unfamiliarity with NET-S and NET-T because I too was not aware of about them until this very assignment. I would definitely tell fellow educators about the NETS-S and NETS-T. If my school board was not already involve with them I would bring it up during a meeting.
