Photo stories can be useful in the classroom if you would like to keep the attention of your students. With so many features, the teacher can appeal to all the students likes. It can almost be used like a power point but is more realistic. Here is a photo story I made about my soccer career!

Emerging Technology in the Clsasroom

Podcasts have been taking over the world it seems like! Pretty much every thing we listen to can be heard on a podcast; news, music, television shows, movies, and interviews. Teachers have now brought podcasts into the classroom for their students to use. Having a podcast allows the student share the learning experience with each other. It also allows the teacher to provide material that can be converted into audio files for the students to download and use at a time that suits them. Such companies as ABC, CBS, CNN, NASA, and The History Channel have been getting into this podcasts fad. The students are able to access information from any of these companies. It is very beneficial for the students.

Here is a link to a site that goes into great detail about the emerging technology if Podcasts:

Assistive Learning Device

I have found an assisted technology device that helps students with disabilities. It is portable desk that is easily adaptive to those students that are limited in where they can be taught. It is a big desk that has a giant surface area for workspace. It can be used for any sorts of classes such as art, geography, math and reading. This assisted desk can be tilted at an angle for the student so they are able to sit comfortably and function with out any obstacles. The website to view this wonderful device is listed below:

Icebreakers in P.E

Here I have found three videos that briefly explain and show "icebreakers" for students to use to get to know one another. Icebreakers help students know eachother's names and make them feel comfortable around others by creating trust. One of my videos explains how to run a icebreaker, and i would want students to watch that and try to make their own icebreaker.
