    New to This

    by
    Hi! My name is Steffany and this is my first INTE class. I’m about to finish my Master’s in Eduction and Human Development for Elementary Education and this is my last class. I’m not really a social media or blog person (well not since high school), so a lot of this will be very out […]

    DS106: The beginning

    by
    So today is my first official day of my journey toward Master’s Degree #2.  This time around, I’m using every experience as an opportunity to learn something new, build my online presence as a Tech enthusiast and baby-step-taker, and to make someone laugh. For those familiar with the DS106 movement, or even just with ILT5340/ […]

    ā€œAs They See Themselvesā€ by Hoover City Schools

    by
    Visual Assignment 44—Album Cover Hoover City Schools – As they see themselves! This looked like a fun assignment. I did, however, have some pertinent worries: photo editing. Admittedly I have limited experience in this area. To remedy this, I looked online for a free and sophisticated photo editor. Fotoflexer seemed like an adequate program based […]

    Summer Challenge

    by
    I have always said that I love a challenge and actually perform better when faced with them.  So…here we go!  After reading through the syllabus for INTE 5340 (a few times) I realize a huge challenge has been presented and I accept!  I appreciate that our instructor understands that we will be learning from our […]

    Look at that! A Clean Room

    by
    Last day of school was June 3rd - and I spent most of my time trying to keep these two groups of girls from "throwing down", two minutes before the final bell rang - total fistfight in the hallway. I know I'm going to miss those 12 year-olds but it'll ...

    Miga, Quatchi and/et Sumi

    by
    Miga, Quatchi, and Sumi are all Vancouver 2010 Olympic mascots but don’t know it yet. This is a cute story of how each of the character’s interest in the Olympics leads them to be invited to the opening ceremonies and there they are announced as the Olympic mascots for 2010. Apparently there is a book […]

    Echo & Echo

    by
    Echo & Echo by Marilyn Singer is an interesting take on mythology and poetry, two things I typically don’t like or enjoy. The way that these poems are written is interesting and has you intrigued by reading two perspectives of the same tale. I enjoyed this by seeing how the author used the same words […]

    Sam and Dave Dig a Hole

    by
    Sam and Dave dig a Hole by Mac Barnett is a little too simplistic. Yes it has won awards, but it did not satisfy my reading needs. This book did not contain usable content for my classroom, when I read it to my students they looked at me like I was crazy… So, they dig […]
