Hi Kara,
This video was a good demonstration for integrating technology into the classroom. Obviously the teacher was very versed in what she was teaching which shows me that being confident with technology is very important for me as a future teacher.
From what I observed, all the technology standards were incorporated. The students showed a sound understanding of the operations(1), social and human issues were involved(2), creativity was being promoted(3), the weather project was going to be shared with an audience(4), The students located information(5), real world concepts (weather (6)). I am jealous at the ease at which the students managed.
The only thing I would have done differently; I would have responded to the question on what the students learned with more enthusiasm. The teacher did not seem to hear answers before she moved to another student. Time was of the essence as she stated at the end. Great teaching tool for me. Laura

Trouble Online/Campus computing and the law
Hi Kara,
The one thing for sure that I did not know is that a human can speak as fast as C.L. Lindsey lll and still be understood. What a great speaker. He sure does know the computer laws.
Most important to me was the advise Lindsey offered on not doing it online if you would not do it in front of a crowd of 1000. At my age this is common sense but for many this needs to be taken to heart.
I was surprised when he spoke of technology that is not yet available is already under copyright. Who knew? I was also surprised at the 25% of illegally downloaded music comes from college kids. I do not know where they find the time. I can barely fit laundry into my day with all my homework. Ah, kids are resourceful.
My son watched a little of the video with me and being 16 he was not yet convinced that a person could get fined for downloading music illegally. This is one of the reasons that my computer is the only in the house. I need it for school or I would not own one. Computers frighten me (with good cause as shown in the video). Anyway, great video. I hope the college students of America heed the warning.
