I must say that the Smartboard system is a great tool for teaching. To see it being used in our class was a welcome site. Ever since starting this masters program, I have wanted to have one in my room more and more. Students really react to them and behave just to touch the screen and reveal answers. It is also a great tool for every subject matter that we teach in schools. I want one badly!
There are so many new websites out there that I have trouble keeping track of them all. That is why I really need my delicious account. I started one about six months ago and use it all the time now. I used it to keep track of the websites I want to save from our last course as well. I also subscribe to teacherweb and my website has a links page which is filling up fast. I was very thankful that we went over the delicious site and I was able to add Thinkfinity.
The most valuable resource from class was Thinkfinity. Not only did it provide great lessons, there was a shortcut to standards which were easy to access. There are also interactive lessons which I can link to my links page. The lesson planner was also easy to use. Since I have only been to the site a few times, I know I have a lot to learn about how to use and navigate the site but I can tell that it is a keeper.
