After watching Ms. Cassidy’s class video it was obvious she is a great teacher. She was able to introduce technology to a group of very young first graders. By introducing her first graders to a blog she can share their work with other the classes and the world as well. Of course this can create some concern to the student’s safety. But Ms. Cassidy seems to understand the risks associated with this issue. She informs all parents with what goes on in her class and makes the blog very hard to exploit by not giving out very much information about the students such as full names. She has shown that technology can be used constructively by students of all ages if used correctly and carefully. As future educators we must adapt to our everyday changing lives with includes the drastic increase of technology over the years. I could not think of denying my child for any educational opportunity so it is important to learn how we can safely achieve this without acquiring any risks to the children.
Hi Noah,
ReplyDeleteIsn't it great how we are getting to know such awesome teachers who are out in the real world making a difference in the lives of children through technology? You obviously are learning so much in this class and have produced quality work. We can both try to be great teachers who live in the 21st century and teach that way too. Ms. Cassidy seems to be one of those exceptional educators that creates learners all over the world. Keep up the good work, Noah. Nice post.
What about the Skype interview with Ms. Cassidy - the second half of the assignment?
