Blog Post #10

Overall, I think that the ERIC presentations (so far) have gone really well. The one thing that really stinks in my mind that I learned the most about, that I never really knew about were the AUP’s. All of the other information was either obvious to me or things I have already heard (for the most part). I think that the group who had “Technology Integration in Science” had some really good ideas. Other than just hearing about technology and its pros and cons and things like that, I like hearing about ideas we as hers can actually use within our classroom. Like the farmer activity etc. Those are the things that I think are most helpful and valuable. I also really like the different websites the “Internet in Technology” group showed us. I think they will be very useful in the future, and definitely websites I will save. Again, overall I think that all of the presentations have been very good and similar but very different. One thing I am glad though, I am glad we split this up into different days, because to be honest with you, when the last group went up to present my attention span had started to decrease. I am not saying the last group was bad by any means, but my attention decreases after hearing so many presentations on the same thing: technology. But again I think they have gone really well and I am interested to hear what the other groups have to present on.
