I chose to look at Web sites and blogs that illustrated how teachers today are using collaborative technology in their classrooms to bring home the classroom and get students to be more interactive with their education. I chose to add the RSS feeds of different sites that I would like to watch that dealt with new forms of technology that are finding their way into the classroom and then to put this information to good use I chose to subscribe to blogs that log how teachers are using the technology or questions that they have due to the things they are trying in their classrooms. I was looking for a Web site or blog that would help me with creating an audio clip of my fifth grade students reciting their dreams along with Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have A Dream" speech. So I will keep this blog posted for if or when I can find what I am looking for!
I think that as a teacher I will use RSS feeds in my classroom as an educational tool. I feel that by subscribing to other teacher's classroom blogs or wikispaces I can monitor their program in comparison to my own students. Also I think that learning in a technology rich environment can help students gain the skills that the technology age requires. I think that RSS feeds also provide an opportunity for students to keep tabs on online experiments, current events in their neighborhoods and international events that all can be used in a Social Studies classroom (the classroom that I plan on having and providing).
Stay tuned for updates as to my search for an audio project with my fifth grade!
