Blog Quiz - Week of April 25th

Task #3 - Last things first

First let me say - where was this teacher in the Buffalo School system giving his students simple/direct directions about saving the iMovie when I was doing mine. I could have used this information last week.

I am extremely interested in this since it is a joint project with the University of Buffalo - where my 18-year old son will be going in August. I thought it was a great idea to get kids so involved in technology. From my limited experience in the classroom I know that kids "die" to use the computers in the classroom. If we can allow them time and tasks so they can use computers and media then we have their attention already. From there it's just a matter of providing a little guidance and getting them started. Congratulations to Buffalo - not exactly my neck of the woods, but it's a city that I absolutely love.

Second - the web link for the media literacy when I clicked on it brought me to a site that was in a "foreign" language - or something like a "foreign" language. Is that the correct website? I just wondered if it is what I am supposed to be looking for.

Task #1 & #2 to follow shortly - I've got to go finish putting out things for our community's "Spring Cleaning" which occurs tomorrow. You snooze/you lose! Hope you'll understand. Be back to finish this quiz in awhile.
