article response

I found the article very interesting,because I have often thought about the many ways technology enables our generation.Watching the news is the sole way many people catch up on the current events,using the news paper as just a way to find coupons.

I do enjoy reading a good fiction book every now and then, but when it comes to current events and news I find myself to be more of a watcher and listener. I am very dependent on the television for my news. This article makes me think can technology possibly be a bad thing?

creating links and adding pictures to a blog

To add a link to a page we can either write the html code or use the tools blogger has built in. The tool to add a link looks like a link of a chain. This is a link to The Fischbowl , a blog used in training teachers in technology at the Araphahoe Co high school in Littleton,Co.

alex

Alex seems to be a useful tool for teachers. It includes many diffrent subjects. It contains lesson plans,and tools that would be very usful to a teacher in a classroom.With the demanding job of teachers this tool could be very useful for the classroom.
Alex offers professional studies, ideas and distance learning to help improve you classroom.I believe alex will be a very benificial tool not only for teachers. It may also make things slightly easier for them in the classroom.

you tube movie

The you tube video gave me a new perspective on the future.I have to ask myself am I ready to teach when the shift happens?I do not completly understand the full capacity of what the future will hold for me as an educator.The video gave me a good idea about the technology in the future.This may be difficult dealing with many honor students while still trying to learn the new technology myself. Is it possible there would be no need for teachers in the future?If computers are smarter than any human, could it take over my job? It is kind of scarey to think about this future. I hope that I am ready when it comes.
