Class Missed

Sorry that class was canceled last week!   I spent some time working on project due this Tuesday. It seems to be taking longer than I thought.

YOUTUBE! HOW EASY IS THAT!

Tonight, I learned something that has been at my fingertips all the time.  Youtube Videos!!  How cool is it that I can upload directly from my phone!  We were given a new project also.  I am very anxious to start!!  Hopefully, all will turn out well, with no glitches.  Fingers crossed and poised on the keyboard, here I go again!

HANGOUTS AND THE FLIPPED CLASSROOM

Flipped Classroom!!  This is going to be so much fun.  Tonight, we talked about the flipped classroom and how we could use it to help our students.  I think this would work wonderfully in my art classroom because of our short time in class.  Usually I spend the first 10 to 15 minutes explaining background, procedures, etc. The flipped classroom can possibly cut this time in half or even eliminate this time....giving more time to creating ART!!  Can not wait to start next week!

Social Media/Google

Once again, my classroom experience was dampened by the inability to connect to internet for most of the class.  Luckily, my phone gave me access to some parts of the exercises.  I already have some of the accounts that we were required to join, so I am not too far behind. Frustration often sets in when I am unable to follow the instructor on my or the school provided equipment.  It is kind of like going to a math class without a pencil to work problems or a literature class without a copy of the story.  Oh well....., it will work out!
