WOW!

Okay, so I won't comment on the coolness of that little video. I almost cried when the script went backwards because I had myself convinced that technology was ending one of my favorite things in the whole world-- Books. I don't feel I am alone in that opinion and now I feel like an idiot for not thinking outside of the box before I made that decision. I can usually see the positive in everything and this video sure hits a homer for me. It just goes to show you how diversified and fabulous our human race is. Honestly Kara, if more people attempted to read between the lines (or backwards) the world would be a happier place. One video--- two opinions--- EXCELLENT!

Chapter 3

The video was very short and maybe this has something to do with the fact that I did not even understand the lesson. I got that they were learning how to send email and clicking the three and one half inch floppy.... but after that I lost her. I noticed at the very end that more than one computer was available and I wonder why the teacher did not let the kids interact as she explained or asked questions (like we did at the taskstream seminar). So, I believe I would have let the children type and click as I walked them through the lesson. Even if only one computer was there I would have taught one or two students at a time. After the lesson was reinforced I would have asked the questions. I don't like to be too critical because you only see a few minutes of the lesson and maybe what I suggested was actually done at some point. Now I will wonder what the heck a 3 and 1 half inch floppy has to do with email (hee, hee).
