Everything new continued....

Today's class once again thrust me into the land of the unknown. I think that all of the topics of discussion today were extremely useful. The podcasts were something that I thought were so far beyond my understanding. I realizes today not only how useful they can be to me in the classroom, but what a fantastic project this would be for my students. I am looking forward to trying Audacity, because I am not a Mac user. Hopefully, it will be as easy to accomplish. After creating my blog for this class, I am toying with the idea of having introducing my students and their parents to my blog. I think it could be very useful and informative. My next task will be to talk to our tech guy. Last, but not least, I'm starting to understand open source material. I'm still a little leery of some of the potential negative consequences, but I think it's a fantastic way to try out potential programs without spending a fortune. All in all, it was another learning day for me!
