ACCESS

ACCESS is another internet learning tool mainly used for high school students to encourage learning purposes and motivation. You can use video conferencing and all that to connect to students to teach them and even a class. ACCESS can be used throught the system ALEX which also is teacher friendly. Both of these are a click away from being used to make life simpler for today's teacher to better educate our future.

ALEX

ALEX is an Alabama website where teachers talk and exchange lesson plans and is a good place for new teachers to use to get a more understanding of their profession of teaching. Teachers can talk to eachother and exchange lesson plans which will make life simpler once we become teachers. The website has basically every subject so it pretty much covers everything. "ALEX, won a 2007 “Best of the Web” Award from the Center for Digital Education and Government, hosting, through the Alabama Supercomputer Authority, a rich assortment of interactives and resources linked to the searchable Alabama Courses of Study"-http://www.21stcenturyskills.org/route21/index.php?option=com_jlibrary&view=details&id=585&Itemid=179. But the website seems to be quite useful and very helpful.

About me

Hola, my name is Daniel, I'm a junior here at south and currently my degree is in Elementary Education. I work at a bar- The Crooked Martini so i work late hours here and there but also enjoy going out alot. I really do not like going down town cause i think its dirty and quite boring most of the time. I am going down town this Saturday for Beer Fest which is going to be a blast and if you are of age, you should check it out. I also love beer, so yummy. Well hopefully that explains enough, if not just write back and will be happy to answer your question and look forward to getting to know you the rest of the semester.
