Reflection

It's tough working full teaching loads with overtime and studying at the same time. I know I'm whining but I never study on the first two months of the new term. I'm kinda stressed and it shows. I'm so down today because one class showed less effort on finishing their work and I just think they're not good enough or too lazy to do their work. 

I'm  sitting her in class thinking about how technology affects teaching and learning these days. How can technology harness my instruction and make it more engaging and valuable to students' life. I have been thinking that my resource depot in my Ed Tech course should focus more 

Weebly Subsciption

I used to buy my Weebly before and not till yesterday I thought it's time to renew. I read the comments of my professor about the menu and I tried to fix it but I could not find the right buttons to change. Then I realized I'm on a free subscription.  Guess, it's time to update my Weebly so I can change it better. Resource Depot should be finish by the end of the month and also yesterday, I talked to my principal about proposing ipads acquisition proposal for my Assignment 5 on this course. He loves the idea and he gives his go signal to present it to the Chinese stakeholders. That's something I have to work next month and hopefully by the end of the year, all assignments will be done hopefully and apply for graduation in May. I'm almost there.........

Second View of e-Journal

I'm ready for the second view of my e-Journal. Actually, I was so busy on working my artifacts, report, and resource depot that I forget to inform my professor to have a look on my e-journal , ooppps! Anyways, I'm almost done with all the stuff, just finishing some details and hopefully I can submit all my big assignments by the end of this month.  I just look at my assignments marks for the first time and I'm very happy. I'm almost there....

What artifacts?

I've thinking for more than a month now about what artifacts that I should present in my EDUC 5203 course. I want to present one artifact that is totally new to me(done), one that is I'm planning to use in class(on the process), and the last one(finishing) is an artifact that I feel confident using in my teaching practice.  These are: Google Forms, Desmos, Pinterest, Google Drive, and Weebly. I need to choose which are my top three choices and I should be able to finish these four artifacts before the end of the month, including my resource depot.

Media App for Math Instructional Video?

I'm planning on using media technology for instructional video for Factoring and Expanding Polynomials in my Unit 2 lesson and I was wondering what is the best media app for this project. Aside from iMovie, Moviemaker, Keynote, and Powerpoint, are there other easy that can create videos. It's not really a very important media tool that I should learn since I'm teaching Math course but I should also know a bit so I can recommend what apps to use for my students....

Unit 1 Reflection in Google Form

Yes. It works! I'm loving the Google Forms. Here's my first try. I was doing a unit reflection in class and they get to write their responses online.
