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.
