Viewing all the videos provided with Anthony Capps has opened up my eyes even more about EDM 310. I'm glad Dr. Strange took the time out to interview with Anthony. Anthony's knowledge content with Problem Based Learning, he wanted his students to engage more fun in learning and providing students interest as well. It amazes me now that students learn a lot more than students back in the 90's, and also come home to their parents and explain to them about the topics/projects they generally learned that day in school. Dr. Strange videos provided different types of examples of what we actually need to do whenever we have our own classroom. I can see that there are many different ways to teach Project Based Learning, and it is an excellent way to engage students. Most projects won't turn out exactly how you want it, but it takes a lot of time and practice. It's always a good idea to have a back up plan as well. Whenever I was in third grade, we didn't have much engagement going on compared to classrooms in the 21st century. Anthony's projects are something that anyone can use in their classrooms. ICurio is also a good source he provided in the video. This can allow students to search safely for educational purposes and also has a storage capacity. Storage capacity can save what they've search and can come back to it and use it again. ICurio can help students start practicing how to organize their selves online. Ending this week 6 of assignments, I will definitely utilize the resources that we've already learned that are provided for us as future educators; as well as the upcoming assignments we are preparing for.Sunday, February 22, 2015

ReplyDeleteHello Leslie!
ReplyDeleteI think that Anthony provided a lot of useful information and thoughts that educators can learn from. I agree with your thought that the classroom has changed and evolved a lot when comparing the 90's to the 21st century. It's amazing how far things have come and how easily students can look up and gain knowledge anytime they want. The use of ICurio is a great resource for them and I think that you did a great job explaining how it works.
