One class down and one more to go

My final is tomorrow in my foundations of education class.  This course went by so quickly but I did learn a lot of things. My group presentation on the role of technology in education went really well.  I will be posting it as soon as I can.  Today we watched a video called "Changing Education Paradigms" that was very interesting and presented in a way that always keeps you focused with animation.  I liked it so much I am going to post it for all of my followers to watch.  This animate was adapted from a talk given at the RSA by Sir Ken Robinson, world-renowned education and creativity expert and recipient of the RSA's Benjamin Franklin award.  See if any of this makes sense to you as to why our educational system is always in need of reform.  Enjoy!!

Ahhh...yes....the joys of summer school

Does this sound about right?





Another quick post to let you know I am enjoying my ED CIFS class on the foundations of education.  I am learning some very cool things.  

Just got done with my own Personal Philosophy of Education, a paper that I will be posting on my portfolio.  I have a group presentation on the role of technology in schools that will be due at the end of this month, that will look awesome on my portfolio as well.  Hopefully I can convince my group to do a power point presentation to go with it.  


This class seems like it's moving so quickly.  It's done next week!!  


Does anyone have any fun Memorial Day weekend plans?  I need a break!
