Blog Post 6
I found Anthony Capp's videos very resourceful. As a former student of EDM 310, he is full of many new, exciting ideas that I can use in my classroom. In Use Tech Don't Teach It, Anthony states that he is a big advocate of using technology in the classroom- and actually using it, not just teaching it to the students. Visual aids help students learn in the classroom, and with programs like DiscoveryEd, experts can be "brought" into the classroom to enhance the learning experience. He believes that students should be made into producers, and not consumers. Although his days as a third grade teacher are long, he puts in a lot of effort and is greatly rewarded for it. Being a teacher is not just a job that takes a break in the summer. Summer is the time where most of your preparation is put in to ensure that the following school year will be a success. To me, he seems like a great teacher. He works very hard to make sure that his students are successful.

Remember all posts need to be a decent length and include several links that support your thoughts/findings. With all of the resources given for this week's blog assignment, I feel as though you could have included a lot more information.
