ILP "Design" - TinkerCad - Free 3D printer software

 Approximately a month and a half ago, we visited the Tech Sandbox on campus. I got to see a 3D printer in action. I used TinkerCad to design the mathematical symbols that I could use in my special education class to help teach my students what these symbols look like. I can also use them to help teach my students the order of operations. TinkerCad made it very easy to create these different things.

Blog 10: A Little of Everything

1.  Data Collection: How the heck am I going to use this? Well, in a special education class, no matter what grade, I am 100% sure that I will figure out how to use it. I can use it to decide what animal the next day should revolve around. One of the teachers who taught only disabled kids at my high school would make each week about a different type of animal. The kids would learn a different fact each day. I can also use data collection to teach the kids how to make graphs out of data that we have collected.
2.  All the blogs are so cool. I loved seeing how different people layed out their blog posts. I enjoyed seeing people's suggestions on assistive technologies that we can use in the classroom. I thought it was interesting seeing everyone's educational technology involvement before this class. I also thought it was great that we had to include pictures or embeded files in our blogs to show our work.
3.  I want to learn how to use drawing programs so that I can draw things out for my students without them questioning what I am trying to draw. I think that a lot of teachers need these types of programs because many teachers can't draw to save our lives. There are many drawing programs online that are free. I will probably try different programs and follow the instructions and then decide which one I like the best.

What exactly does the term "Flipped Classroom" mean? According to our textbook, Teaching and Learning with Technology, the flipped classroom is an innovative blended delivery model that currently has a following in K-12 and post secondary education. Now what the heck does that mean? This means that the teacher of the classroom would previously record their lectures and have the students listen to them prior to coming to class so that the instructor has more time to work with the students during class on the actual content that was covered in the vodcast. This is considered the "flip" of classrooms. Joe Hirsch flipped his classroom and uses Office Mix to display his lectures. Check it out: JoeHirsch's Videos.

Open education is all about making educational experiences available to a wide audience of learners. According to opensource.com, open education is a philosophy about the way people should produce, share, and build on knowledge.

Open source is a term that means that it is a software whose source code is open to anyone anywhere. According to

Working on the PowerPoint for Information project, I learned that I get frustrated very easily over small things. I figured out that you can put several different animations on the same object within a slide. I loved creating a game using PowerPoint and I never realized that there are so many templates that are premade for us by other people. If I were to do this again, I would choose another template. I can use this in my classroom to teach my students simple math.
