Day 5 2017 GAETI

In GAETI today we learned about BYOD. Which means bring your own device. That would not work at my school because we have a no cell phone policy. Also, most of the students would not adhere to the policy if we did allow it. As grown ups we cannot follow instructions about a phone. As far as 1 to 1 I think that is wonderful and our school will be going to it in the next couple of years. It will give the students a chance to have technology at their hands so if they have questions then they can use their Chromebook. Then we had a speaker to come in and she talked to us about 1 to 1 it made it a little more visual and real. We also created a weebly page and the was fun we used this this website in one of my classes but I never understood it, but with the directions she gave I am confident that I can work through the page. Then last part of the day was a spent on us working on files from Dr. B, and E-Portfolio development. Today was a great learning experience and I will use it in my class.

Day 18 2017 GAETI

Today in GAETI we talked about creating a business plan. The CD did not work and we just discuss some business strategies. Then we worked on our weebly and after lunch we listen to a speaker talk about wellness. It was the best presentation and I enjoyed it. I am going to take that information and use it for my health. Lastly we did a video with Dr. B with a person from Brazil it was good. We asked questions an the answers were good.

Follow Up Sept. 29

Today in the follow-up session we talked about how we are using the resources in our classroom. It was amazing how most people used the resources, but others had problems because of technology issues. Also, we went over how to write a grant. I always thought that writing a grants took hours to do, but the way Dr. Bracey explained it it seems a little a easier. I do plan to write one if I have time. I really like that idea from Yokohama and the gym equipment. We really need something for our children to exercise on an getting outdoor exercise equipment along with the the track we have would be wonderful. At the end of the day we learn about code. I plan to use some of the activities in the book. We are suppose to be train later because ICT 1 will be moved to 6th grade. I think this is a wonderful program and it will help the students learn more about computer science. Maybe it will encourage girls to get involve in computer science and maybe choose a profession in it.

Day 1 2017 GAETI

Today in GAETI was a day of meeting new people and learning new ideas. The day started off with an energize instructor that was very happy and enthused about what she telling us. We also meet other professors that was happy to see us and explained their roll in GAETI.  Then we explored the IED building and took a walk to the library. At the library we learned about MAGNOLIA and how it can be used in the classroom. It was very interesting to me because I can show my students different ways to research. Also, it will give my students a chance to explore some information they might be interested in. In the second half of GAETI I learned about the different standards and how they can be used in English, History, Technology, and Science. In my group we discuss ethics and how to use all the standards that were presented today. My group member gave a website where students can create comic strips free.  I never would have considered using a comic strip to explain ethics. This would k...
