<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">In this article, “Reading Redefined for a Transmedia
Universe” written by Annette Lamb explores how reading a book has changed over
the years. A couple of years back a book was simply pages with text which told
a story. But now with all the technology enhancements ebook have become very
popular. E-books is a new way to read novels over devices for example a
computer. Some e-books provide features that allows the reader to click on text
or pictures that provide more information. I believe this can be a great source
for young students to get them interested in reading. Lamb explained that e-books can also be
considered distracted for readers because of all the features. Technology is
everywhere and e-books is another source that allows people to have easy access
to be able to read a novel in an instant. </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Question 1: Should students be able to read e-books?</span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">In my opinion students should have the option to
either read books through a online database paper book. I personally am a visual
learner which having access to e-books can get me interested in books. When I was
younger I had a hard time focusing on a books, I think having e-books students
will understand the book better. Also, I think that because it has features to
help understand the novel you will get more out of a book. When it comes to
textbooks I think it can really help students in many ways as far as understand
the material better.</span></span></div>

using technology?</span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Reading has definitely changed over the years and
e-books has become one of the most famous ones that everyone is using. One
thing that I like about being able to read these books is that we are able to
open them from anywhere from a smartphone to a computer.Technology is very important and when is used responsibly it can be one of the best sources out there. Having the ability to enjoy a book from your computer can save you time and money. </span></span></div>leidyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00362840102440526573noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7977108398622452599.post-87573667032207220062011-11-28T14:48:00.001-08:002011-12-16T19:21:17.948-08:00Journal #8<div style="font-family: inherit;">

<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Summary: Google+ has many great features that I believe teachers can use educational with their students. Parr describes that Google+ can be a little confusing for beginners and by him providing video clips it will make it easier to be able to navigate. The features that Google+ offers are Stream, sparks, Hangouts, huddle, circles, and photos which all will help organized our own Google+. With Google+ Google is looking towards many people getting one and being one the most popular social networks. Teacher should use Google+ but first they should provide students how it should be used responsibly. By students using a social network for educational purpose students will be more aware of how to avoid dangerous situations. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: large;">
Question 1: How do you believe teachers can educate students on how to use it responsibly?
In my opinion teachers have the hardest job when it comes to educating students to do the right thing when using any sort of social network. I would first inform the students if used responsibly they will gain useful knowledge. Also, if teachers make their students sign up for any social network teachers should strictly only be used for educational purposed. Teachers should be involved in the network and if any bad behavior occurs she should immediately take action.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Summary: Brogan explains how Google+ offers a great feature that helps people separate their social and educational social network. Google+ offers class circles, which is a tool where it lets you choose who you want in each circle of friends. Also, you can invite friends to a whiteboard collaboration, which is a group of people that get together and are able to see each other face to face. Google+ can be used in many different ways and is unique because it offers many more features and people are able to connect with people that are interested in their same field. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">

<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: large;">
Question 2: How can video chats be educational?
I think having the ability to video chat can be educational depending which circle of friends you are being connected with. I am a visual learner which being able to talk to my professor through a video chat would make me understand anything better. Although, I do not recommend teachers from K-12 to use it for educational purposes because parents can interpret it as unprofessional.

PLN is a way that a group of people with the same interest are able to get information from other more experience teachers. This will help teachers progress in their educational field because of the resources they are able to gather. I myself created my own PLN that I know will help me when I become a teacher. I have been getting more involved with Diigo, Twitter, and “The PLN Educators” website. Having my own PLN will help me grow as a person and get connected with people that have my same interest.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> Twitter is a way to stay connected with friends, experts, celebrities and news. Although, I have to say that I now see Twitter as an educational network, because I am able to follow people that are interested in the same profession as I am. I chose to follow Tim St. John, Shelly Terrell, </span><span style="font-size: large;">scichat</span><span style="font-size: large;">, and Steven Anderson as well as my classmates. I joined a chat by #edchat on November first at 1 in the afternoon which provided many great resources on the different ways we can improve the educational field. I did not chat but I was trying to keep up with what the educators were collaborating during the chat. Being able to join chats will definitely improve our teaching skills or provide our students with many other ways education can be fun. Shelly Terrell the founder of #edchat is one of the best educational bloggers. Shelly provided information that is useful to any one in the educational fields. During the chat many people gathered to collaborate which useful information was provided as well as educational articles. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Diigo is a social-bookmarking tool that allows the users to save anything that is in the internet as well as to be access from any computer. Diigo has many great features that will help user maintain their accounts organized. For example, it has a way to highlight any important information that you might want to have easy access as well as to put tags which are related to the information. I found an interesting lady by the name of Cyndi Danner which is a digital story teller which was what caught my attention. She loves technology which was why she focused on the different ways technology can be used in the educational field. I chose to follow her because she provides many important resources that will help me become a better teacher. I also bookmark a couple of important cites that describes why having a PLN is important and useful. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Educators PLN website is to provide useful and knowledgeable information that will help people in the educational field to connect. I joined both Classroom 2.0 and Educators PLN which both provide information about Personal Learning Network. I was able to focus on “The Educators PLN” which provides videos, chats, forums, blogs, leaderboards and many other resources which all help support the importance of being connected. I watched a video produced by Thomas Whitby which explains how important it is for teachers to teach their students about all the educational websites. It was an informative video regaring the importance of using educational sites and describing how students can benefit from being able to get information from more than one websites. </span>leidyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00362840102440526573noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7977108398622452599.post-55040533059139304542011-10-14T22:34:00.000-07:002011-10-19T21:49:34.356-07:00Journal 4<div style="color: #134f5c; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div style="color: #134f5c; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
Summary:This article, “It’s in the Bag” provided information about a new method of how students can benefit from technology. Students will have technology tools which will enable them to have access to an expansion of sources. For example be connected with Twitter, facebook, and as well as having a Blog. Many of these networks will teach the students many important facts. Having access to I-pads, laptops, cameras, and many others will teach the children a smarter way to do anything. If teachers would promote opening a Blog in a educational way and continue until you graduate I feel students would enjoy school much more. Being able to use all these tools would definitely get the students more interested in school work. If all schools would focus more on technology the school would first save a lot of money and students would be more efficient when it came to going to college. I do agree that by students having this type of bag it would make them love technology and make school more fun.</div>

Question 1: How do you think students will react to a tool bag?</div>
<div style="color: #134f5c; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
I believe that students would definitely enjoy this method of learning. Technology is huge here in the US which means it is necessary that we teach our students how to have access to all this tools. If elementary students had access to a tool bag pack it would be easier for them to get familiar with all that it has to offer. </div>

Question 2: How would you control this new method before students take advantage?</div>
<div style="color: #134f5c; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
This is a hard question because even young children know so much about technology that we need to educate them to use technology in a safe way. When I become a teacher and lets say we would provide this method I would definitely have to be involved with all my students. Now there is programs for teacher to be able to monitor and protect our students. </div>leidyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00362840102440526573noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7977108398622452599.post-73337422638873636342011-10-13T17:13:00.000-07:002011-10-19T21:45:47.603-07:00Journal 3<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Students Dig up Dirt to Learn about Internet Safety </span></div>
<br /><span style="font-size: large;"> Morehouse, J. (2010). Students dig up dirt to learn about internet safety. <i>Learning and Leading with Technology</i>, <i>39</i>(2), 34. Retrieved from http://www.iste.org/learn/publications/learning-and-leading/digital-edition-september-october-2011.aspx</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Summary: In this article it provided information regarding the safety ways to use the internet. As we all know almost everyone can be searched on line and be able to find a lot of information. Morehouse gave his students 10 minutes to gather as much information online as possible and the students realize that almost his whole life was online. He then wrote all the different things the students found on the board, with all the information the students gathered they were able to create an image of him. Morehouse delivers many great facts regarding this issue. I have created many accounts over the course of my internet usage which frighten me, because is true without people knowing me they can investigate me and they will gather a lot information about me. After reading this article I will incorporate this in my classes but most importantly to show my students the importance of internet safety. Being able to provide this to students at a young age will expand their awareness on how internet can be dangerous if not used responsibly.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">
Question 1: What can parents do to monitor their children using the internet? </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">In many social networks there is an age requirement which in many cases is easy to bypass and lie about your age. Because social networks are popular I agree with children wanting to open one, but parents have to be involved. This depends on the parents if they get an account as well or get the password to his Child's account to monitor. I would say that although we might trust our children there is many creepers out there that can be dangerous. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Question 2: How dangerous can internet be?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I would say that it can be harmless but yet very dangerous. It really depends how we all use these types of sites. But children though they do not always know how dangerous it can be. Which means that its our jobs to educate them to use these websites responsibility. </span>leidyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00362840102440526573noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7977108398622452599.post-32061090063193673832011-10-11T22:54:00.000-07:002011-10-11T22:54:46.075-07:00Journal 2<div style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;"><span>Summary: This article
explained the ways we are able to communicate with strangers in an educational
way. It provided many great facts for example that Twitter can enhance our
education in many ways. Ferguson provided step by step on how to start a
Twitter account and how slowly it will benefit us. She explained that by having
a Twitter account it will help start a community that will become a great
source. By building this community it will help grow debates as well as
discussions that we are able to join. Slowly our communities will grow and
provide us a better communication with expansions of new ideas. Ferguson also
suggested that when we follow people that seem interested it will enable them
to start reading our ideas. Being able to communicate with strangers with our
same interest can definitely help us become better teachers. I definitely see
myself following professors that have had experience in the teaching field,
because it enables me to look up to them in a way that we were not able to do
so before. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span>Question 1: How is Twitter is
an educational source?</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span>I have to say that Twitter
can be used as what you wanted to become. In many ways it can be used as a
communication source with all sorts of people. Before I took this class I saw
Twitter as a place where celebrities would communicate with their fans. I never
thought of Twitter as an educational source. Although, after reading, “Join the
Flock” I have definitely changed my mind about Twitter. Twitter is a place to
connect with people that will help grow my teaching skills.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span>Summary: This article
provided a better understanding of how to make Twitter a better experience.
McClintock provided a chart of Twitter terminology which will help new users navigate
this source. She also went into detail on how to find people that have our same
interest. McClintock gave some great ideas on how to find a person that connects
to your profession. Also, she explained that by using an organizer with a
Twitter account will help us manage it better.</span></span></div>

Sir Ken Robinson captured my attention when I was viewing my results. I saw the twenty minute speech video which gave me a better understanding about ways to maintain creativity in the classrooms. Mr. Robinsons gives great facts that I had not thought about before. For example, in the beginning of his video he describes how students believe that being wrong is not good which is when creativity starts vanishing. Students grow up thinking that being correct is the only way they will have a bright future. Mr. Robinson explains that we are all born with creativity but over the years it disappears. He also said that creativity is created by many wrongs which makes creativity that much better. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #134f5c;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif; font-size: large;">Watching this video provided many great facts that will help us better our education system. During the years I am sure we have all made mistakes, but at the end it made us that much stronger. Students in their early years have huge imagination that we should let them explore. By providing fun ways to teach students t<span style="background-color: #741b47;"></span>hey will enjoy school and will be eager to learn. I will definitely incorporate these resources with my students because it will make me a better teacher.</span></span>leidyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00362840102440526573noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7977108398622452599.post-42781219342832152292011-09-15T00:55:00.000-07:002011-09-15T00:55:36.062-07:00Journal 1: 100 things that make me happy<ol><li>Family</li>

I don't remember much from when I was there but I have visited Oaxaca many times. I am the oldest, I have a younger sister and a younger brother. I grew up in Carlsbad and went to school there until my second year in Carlsbad High School. My parents bought their first home and my family and I ended up moving to Oceanside. I attended Vista High School for my junior and senior year and graduated in 2006. I then decided to attend Mira Costa College as well as figure out what I wanted to focus in. I always enjoyed working with kids, me being the oldest I remember playing school with my younger cousins which I then new that I wanted to become a teacher. I finally met all my requirements and decided to apply to CSUSM and was very excited when I received the letter of acceptance.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I would have to say that I love computers but I am so used to the PC computers that changing to a MAC is definitely a challenge. I only use computers for what I consider important stuff for example homework, navigate the internet, and download my pictures from my camera to the computer. But other then that I do not use it for anything else, for example if I need to get a burned CD with music I would ask my boyfriend to do it for me. I do not own any sort if I pod or mp3 so a CD is what works for me. It might sound hard to believe but I definitely need lots of work and that is one of the reason I know I will enjoy this class. Another thing that I can not live without is my phone and that is to text and keep connected to the cyber world. </span><br />

<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The CSUSM education mission statement is strong and one of favorite parts is "We are commitment to... life long learning" I believe that when a school is committed to helping us reach our goal is only fair that we put 150% as well. We need to be focus because all this hard work will pay at the end. Yes, there might be some times when school might get frustrating but that is why we have the support of the school to help us overcome obstacle that we will be faced with. I know that CSUSM provides many methods that will make us stronger individuals.</span>leidyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00362840102440526573noreply@blogger.com3
