Joe Dale drew my attention with the ITC and Language Conference with the idea of workshops and hands on events. I love the idea of experiencing something for myself giving me the opportunity to learn from my own mistakes as well as others. It was a great post.

"Happy Arts in Education Week"
My comment:Hello Julia Vincentsen,
My name is Larry McMillan, I’m a student at the University of South Alabama in EDM310. I find it so exciting that young kids are having the opportunity to be involve in the arts at a young age. The reason I’m so excited is because I was a Dance major before transferring school and I kinda wish I had the opportunity to get involved early age.

Julia Vincesten was incorporating the arts in her school for the week with the permission of the government if I read it corrected. I'm so excited because being a former art/dance major the arts just excite me. Not to mention kids being involved with it at a early age makes it so much better.

My Comment:Hi Htawara!
My name is Larry McMillan, I'm a student at the University of South Alabama in EDM310 in the United States. Your animation was very entertaining. I like how the video looked realistic. Great Job!!!

The video was about an individual skating from the left side of the screen to the right. Then entering a house to eat. The video was well develop and entertaining. Htawara did a great job.

This article the "My Teachers App" explains online class and how can be provided to students not in college. The article explains that online classes have pros and cons for students K-12 grade. The article provides critical analysis to what effects can to students. Students that go to class are in control of their futures to a certain instances, while students who have take online have full control. The articles explains that this new online system will save states and the country money which I feel is true also.
Now my reactions to the article is that I was so surprised. Most students in high school and below grades don't want to go to class for personally reason which is why I can agree with having online classes for students. Not only does online classes prepare students for whats to come in the future with college and maybe having to do online classes. This is a great idea, but my main concerns would be that students would be handicap or hindered in college when having to go to class. Not only does it hindered college socially but future interviews I think cause one would not be able to properly to communicate with other people in a social-able manner. But overall this is a great idea for students to take a couple online classes but remain in class to be social-able capable.

I watched the video Whole Brain Teaching. This ways an unusual way to teach. Which I can say, me personally not a big fan of because I don't like loud classrooms. I like the traditional method of a teacher teaching and students (myself) studying. But I will say this was very catchy.

Chris Biffle presents many methods of learning exercise to his students. He presents sequence, logic, rhythm, projection, and the ability for teachers to teach to their fellow classmates. When I become a teacher I will use this method for my students so that they will certain lessons that I feel are important as well as life lessons

Project Progress

In our project were are explaining how technology will help our students to their parents, and what types of technology we would use and how to use it. We have six members in our group so we have decided to work in doubles on each technological advancement.

My comment:Dear Shane J.,
My name is Larry McMillan. I'm a student in EDM 310 at the University of South Alabama. I enjoyed reading your post. Honestly I would have been going for the werewolf. For Halloween I dressed up like a werewolf. Mrs. Yollis this class blog is very entertaining to read thank you.

I enjoyed reading the class blog Mrs. Yollis set up. I was assigned to the Shane J. He made a story about the Halloween Olympics. It had different kinds of monsters in this contest. It had three different kind of events. But I enjoyed reading every line in this blog post

blog post 11


In video the young boys and girls are explaining their knowledge on technology. The kids in the video had seemed to see what blogging can do for them besides express the way they feel, but help in grammatical errors and sentence structure. It also seemed to give the young boys and girls a chance to explore technology.I give Ms. Cassidy two thumbs up.

Ms. Cassidy skype interview was WOW. Like i only have personally skyped people in the same city as me, or even in the same house just different room. But for someone one to skype in a different time zone is remarkable. But her reasons behind are interesting. Ms.Cassidy was grant the opportunity to have five computers in here classroom and she wanted to put some use to them in a productive manner. So she began her technological experience. I will for sure use technology in my class to help keep organization and record of what has been done. and will be.

http://techliterateteacher.blogspot.com/2009/07/dr-richard-e-miller-discusses-writing.html

This video is very informative. Being that I already use the internet and technology to the max i still learned a decent amount. Dr. Richard Miller did a copious amount of research in depth on past events without going to the library. Which me personally never been a one to use the internet for research much to see him explain what he did makes me want to do so from now on.

In the second video Dr. Richard Miller explains and demonstrates how to write in multi-media. The multi media is a good way for students to research different subjects with great time management.I honestly believe this will be more appealing to the students instead of books, newspapers, and etc.. This will make student become more interested in what their researching.

Personally multi media is still a bit confusing. But I think as teacher this will grant me an opportunity to learn and understand what I'm teaching better. Making me a better teacher in the process. But I would definitely teach my students how to use this in the future.

Carly Post
Carly's post was so amazing. It was easier to understand and grasp. I know her future students will love her and her teaching methods. Carly took the post of Dr. Miller and ran with it and made reality. Thank you for the example.

The Chipper Serious and EDM for Dummmies
Both of these videos were hilarious. Like great job might I say first. I'm a person who felt EDM 310 was just to much. I was already not a fan of online work but as I came alone in this class help is right there for all who needs it.I would like to make a video for the future students of EDM 310 on how to get help while helping themselves with facebook, twitter, and just in the lab.

Learn to change and Change to learn
"Learn to Change and Change to Learn" discussed the ways students study. It explains how students don't learn the traditional way that in the pasted did. Which i can say is very true cause to this day my father still tells me that the way kids are now days aren't the same as when he was a kid.Technology has transformed the way many people learn and grasp information. I agree that with the time and how evolved technology has advanced that classrooms and other teaching environments should adapt and become updated with society.

Randy Pausch promotes the idea of achieving your dreams. As a young child Randy Pausch was a determine to be something at all cause. But even though he was unable to achieve all his dreams he can still smile and be happy at the his past accomplishment.

Randy Pausch if I may say is a very interesting individual. He seems to know what he was talking excusing his credentials as professor. He video was very length but he was able to grasp my attention the entire time. This video I would glad show and encourage any new teacher to watch cause he gives great tips and pointers on how to be a productive teacher.

The first lesson that Randy Pausch teaches is called the head fake. This is what really caught my attention cause I love football. He explains that the head fakes is indirect learning while learning something else. His indirect and direct relation to the sport ,football made this easy relate to. He also explains that the team as a whole is learning how to play the game you have the individuals how to be leaders.

I have always been an individual to want to do work on my own since I have became of age. When I was younger I like the idea of being with my friends in a group doing work. But I have learned everyone do not share the same values of wanting to be successful which made me turn the other way in liking group work. But I have learned from my mistakes and would hate to have my past hinder my future students in groups to accomplish a goal.

My comment:Hi Julie Vincentsen,
I am Larry McMillan ,a student at the university of South Alabama, in Dr. Strange EDM 310 class.I can only say that I’m jealous of your students having the ability to have the arts in their school and the faculty care so much. Being a former dance major I wish i was evolved in the arts sooner. Thank you
In Julie Vincentsen blog post she explains that her school is going to be involved in the arts at her school. I explain who I was and told that I personally was jealous of her students for having faculty care so much to have the arts be part of the school.
