Teaching in the Digital Age

Wow, this was some great information. The videos were very interesting and enlightening at the same time. I have not started my teaching career officially yet, but I have been substitute teaching at the Derrick Thomas Academy. The article that we read by David Warlick was very informational as well. I never thought about podcasts being used for teaching. It is obvious now to me that it can be very useful. The entire article will be useful for me in the future. It just amazes me the technology advance that I have seen in my lifetime. I remember my first cell phone, my first computer, my first ipod; it is great how usefull all these things have become. I am not where I want to be with my knowledge of technology. I use to be farily current with my knowledge of our advances in technology, but the last couple of years have passed me up in a sense. Making web pages, podcast, blogs, etc are still relatively new to me. For some reason I just did not keep up like I should have. So I gues I am some what of a digital immagrant. Oh well, this is what this class is for, to "catch me up!"
