Day 9 [2/16/10]

Today in class, Denise had us make a photo story. This was new to me because I have never done anything like that at all! However, it turned out to be really fun and interesting. I enjoyed this activity a lot. The story that we had to make needed to contain a quote about teachers and a few pictures that went well with the quote. I used my favorite teaching quote, "The best teachers teach from the heart, not from the books." I feel that the ISTE NETS standard that fits the best with this activity is 6a. (6. Technology Operations and Concepts Students demonstrate a sound understanding of technology concepts, systems, and operations. a. understands and use technology systems.) This is because students are using technology operations and concepts while learning to understand how to use them. I would love to use this kind of activity in my classroom, or at least use this photo story myself for teaching purposes. With majority of children watching television and spending hours on the internet, I feel that showing a bright, multicolor, fun, slide show would help them learn better.
