I met with Stephanie last Thursday for our unit planning. It went well and we were able to get a lot of things done. She practically posted everything we did already.
Post for this week:
Technology has made a big impact on our generations' way of reading and writing. First, most people have access to computers and are on them multiple times a day. We have the accessibility to read what ever we want at what ever time with a click of a mouse. Computers also give us more opportunities to write more frequently, whether it be communicating through AIM/AOL or writing an email. It also makes it easier to type up a paper and being able to revise it on one screen rather than typing it on a typewritter and not being able to correct any mistakes.
IPODS also have impacted our reading and writing by lyrics from music. We discover different words and phrases from songs. Songs also help people express themselves with words. Music may bring creativity and open-mindedness.
Computers and IPODs are only two things that have helped our writing and reading skills. We are consistently listening and reading with new technology and do not even realize it. The beauty of it is that both computers and IPODs are used for entertain and if educators can use "entertaining" devices and use them as a learning device, then can be a very successful tools for education.
