Growing Up Online

     I watched this documentary about the kids in their current generation. It was produced in 2008 have changed the way the kids use technology in the classroom, and how their parents and teachers influence their use. And then, this is my opinion about the ideas of "Growing Up Online".
  1. The kids will be more dependent about technology, even doing on the internet. Beside, something on the internet will be unsafety for kids. If something happened, they would know how to protect themselves. Some of parents on that situation don't know how to teach them keep from unsafety. But the kids can control when they are doing on the internet.
  2. That will be considered cheating. Turnitin.com is a good website to stop plagiarism. Students need to use their own words for assignment.  Teachers want to make sure the students use credible source while they are using material online. They searched online for their research which is plagiarism.
  3. He should feel guilty. He isn't supposed to use summaries and notes to complete his assignment. The reading is important. The summaries and notes support the reading. He is cheating.
  4. I think people like Edows who become famous through their online presence, be considered celebrities. Celebrities are people they give excitement to our lives. Edows has a big fan not support her. People should consider celebrities online personal.
  5. Listen to what everything they say to keep safety for themselves.

  7. This teen is describing Suler's disinhibition effects. It is just a game of the girl flit the boy. This effect don't follow societal rules in their interactions.  
  8. I haven't thought about disconnecting from it all. I use the internet everyday for school. I think it wouldn't easy for personally. I will be enjoy about disconnecting, such as: cooking, talking more with my family, and doing something for myself.

Tech Tool Review


My presentation

     I like the Haiku Deck because it is easy to build the slidesshow presentations. The information gets from the notes and puts it together in a gorgeously themed presentation. It looks for keywords to pick out slide topics and relevant images pulled from image database. It analyzes keywords, lookes for key phrases, studies how organzied my notes.
    When I have finished building my deck, I can embed that slideshow in any website or share it to your social networks or via email. I can export it as an editable PPTX file and work with it some more in powerpoint or keynote.

Pinterest in the Classroom

     I am interested about Pinterest. I learned how to create broads and pins in many different thing about education in content area, student activities, and classroom.
     Using Pinterest as a teacher, it is so helpful. I can find the ideas on Pinterest. It is easy to use, to find, and to be right. Pinterest can help to become a better educator and an established teacher. It is an amazing tool that cen help differentiate instruction in class.
     Pinterest has many the strengths. Pinterest does on thing and does it well. They have embraced the less is more ethos that initially propelled Google search and Twitter in the fileds. They can use Pinterest on computer or on Iphone.
    There are many challenges of Pinterest. It is many things that I can find so awesome. Pinterest as well as a tool to find teaching ideas, lesson plans, and anything on any topic. The students keep students active, excited, and engaged.
     How many boards is the idea on Pinterest?

Khan/ Koller Review

  • Salman Khan:
    • When I visited his site, I envisioned using myself about something. I learn how to do and get ideas by video on the internet. I think I am more similar with him when I improve my study skill. I am a visual person. It is really helpful. The videos are easy to follow and learn step by step. It shows me how to solve the problems and complete it. When they can't understand or can't do the homework, they can look for some sites, they will explain what they don't know. This site of credentialing is interesting. I am sure this style of education makes learning more accessible to all people. Learning by online is helpful to people, it provides more convenient.

  • Daphane Koller:
    • When I explore the Coursera offerings, the course looks most interesting to me in Computer Science and offer credit and degree. Unfortunately, Columbus State doesn't accept Coursera transfer credits but as Ohio States does. I think Coursera courses appear to be more challenging as many or more interesting. It looks like more interesting to meet lots of people from around the world. MOOCs have received significant coverage in the higher education. It suggests that MOOCs will make high quality education more accessible and decrease the substantial costs of higher education. The MOOCs represents a more personalized form of automated instruction which provided to students using systems.
