Google Apps is versatile tool that can be used by individuals, professional organizations, and schools alike. Two years ago I started working with Google Apps in the school that I was teaching at. A year later, our charter school converted to a full-blown Google school. Our technology teacher became a Google certified teacher and we never looked back. Google Apps replaced our e-mail system without changing our e-mail addresses that made it seamless for our parents and families. We were…

During this unit I spent a significant amount of time using Google Apps, and I can easily say that I have learned quite a bit from the experience. I did come to realize that there are many practical uses for my classroom that I can begin to implement immediately, as well as in my personal life if I so wished. Any and all knowledge I can gain from learning about technology is valuable to me and this unit was especially useful. The amount of freedom and self reliance I was able to…

These virtual tours/field trips have been useful in a social studies class that I teach called Passport to the World. Let me know if you find them useful or if you recommend others. I especially like the Anne Frank House resource.

Hmm, I don’t see as clear a prompt for this blog, it just seems to say to read the global project stuff, read the digital citizen ship stuff, explore the sites, and then keep this in mind while writing a blog post.
So, I’ll get to all of that, but, let me first give you—Katie some insight into what’s going on in my life. That is----why am I trying to be not too concerned about missing a forum post, etc. I’d been experiencing some health symptoms that mocked a …what is it? A TIA or…

Open Source Course: Digital Citizenship for Everyone: Resources for Students, Teachers and Families
Personal reflection:
This course advertised itself as a course designed to teach the participants how to create digitally responsible users of the internet. It also supplied resources for teachers and parents for lesson on digital citizenship. Overall, they shared resources that are available through their organization, but you need to purchase those resources if…

The open course I found and chose to start was/is called “Digital History” through a partnership between the University of Houston and other supportive organizations. It is a comprehensive course that covers the history of the United States beginning from the American Revolution to present day. The amount of sources, resources, and perspectives offered are truly impressive. The course is divided into ten separate and distinct sections and it allows the learner to choose what order…

Experiencing Free/Open Source Courses
When searching for free courses online, many of the ones that I found were just videos on YouTube. Courses were on a variety of topics from core subjects to hobbies. I could see just listening to these to gain knowledge in a certain subject area. Many universities Yale to local universities offer these courses.
I decided to log in to the fake student account that was provided to me by the lady…

¡Finalmente he empezado mi servicio y me gusta mucho! Es el perfecto servicio para mí y estoy muy agradecida que esta clase me dio la oportunidad para servir en el hospital. Aunque no he trabajado mucho en el hospital todavía, sé mucho del departamento de servicios lingüísticos. Hay treinta y cuatro intérpretes de español. También, hay intérpretes de otras lenguas que son contratistas. Estas personas pasan facturas al…

Lucas y yo hemos estado trabajando en la traducción de Henry Clay Estate para nuestro aprendizaje de servicio hasta el momento. No ha habido mucha interacción con hispanohablantes, pero lo interesante es que también estamos tratando de coordinar una visita con la escuela Maxwell. Henry Clay Estate sólo se necesita ayuda con la traducción originalmente, pero nuestro objetivo es llegar a otras personas. Creo que Lucas estará de acuerdo en que eso es lo que estamos esperando. Hablamos de salir…

Cada lunes, yo enseño una clase de inglés como segunda lengua que dura una hora y media. En esta clase, enfocamos en la lectura. Los estudiantes son de los niveles tres y cuatro, es decir que su competencia es de un nivel intermedio. Como es una nueva clase, ya no han habido muchos estudiantes en la clase. Hasta ahora, no han habido más que tres en la clase a la vez. Sin embargo, como los estudiantes que asistan a la clase cambian de semana a semana, me he conocido personas de muchas…

El objeto de la biblioteca es tener un lugar en la comunidad donde personas puede buscar ayuda con tarea, aprendiendo ingles, o interactuando con otra gente en la comunidad. Muchas personas (usualmente más viejo) solicita ayuda con sus impuestos o con otros documentos importantes. Es probable que es muy difícil entender esos documentos si ingles es tu segunda lengua. Y es bueno que esos tipos de servicios sean ofrecido por gratis.
Algunas de las metas principales de la…
