MOre itunes

I have always thought videos were a good teaching tool cause they are interesting and fun and also very education at the same time. The videos on there were interesting and thought the solar one was pretty cool and remember as a kid remembering experiencing an eclipse and still not wondering why and now i do and think kids would understand more as well. They had some other videos too but I like the solar one the best. They broke down the information easy and nice.

I also watched a couple of others on the solar system and for most part did not get bored and think they could be used as great educational tools. I will probably used podcasts like that in my class since there is alot

Podcasts on teaching outside classroom

The videos were cool and interesting and was hoping that some of my classes such as geology could do that but guess too much of an hassle but think other classes need to be more hands on and think thats a good way learn and actually comprehend what is going on cause you dont think youre learning but you actually are and pretty soon becomes a routine and you know exactly what to do in certain situations.

The Schoolyard one with the one that the students have a garden and work it and learn different stuff is a really cool one and would be cool to do for own classroom maybe like a little green house or something where i teach them how many seeds to count and weigh the vegetable in ounces and pounds.

The other one was cool too but already knew how different parts of the world worked and how some kids dont even get the chance to learn and how Americans take so much for granted and it is really sad and this video should show them how good they have it

iPodcasts

I first had a little troube starting the podcast but got it workin and listened. It was cool and good listened to the podcast so I could actually realize that 15 minutes of talkin is a long time and longer than i that so i would actually have to be prepared. It sounded like for the most part the speakers were prepared and did a good job for the most part.
The podcasts were very imformative and enlightning and very entertaining and want to be like that whe n i do mine and hope i dont get nervous but will try to make the most fun out of it and just go with since it is live and anything goes and can happen so we shall see

Last Lecture of Randy Pausche

The last lecture of Randy Pausche basically tells how he succeeded in life and what how people in is life inspired him to do well and tells people to inspire others as well and how a coach pushed him to do better and road him hard one day but it was a good thing because if no one rides anyone then they dont care and lose hope and so its a good thing that people are rough on people at times.

Randy Pausche has 10 tumors in his stomache and has 3 to 6 months to live but he remains positive and his happy. Does not want to talk about his family but his life and childhood dreams. He also spoke of enabling dreams of others and lessons learned. He had many quotes that i liked and remembered such as " Cannnot change the cards we are delt, just how we play the hand" and he seemed to the his hand quite well and achieved alot of stuff throughout his life.

Some of dreams he did not acheive but said " Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted". He was better off not makin in NFL but bette inspiring people in his field of computers and virtual reality. He seemed like a very well like guy and kind and wanted to better people and inspire people. Pretty sure his work will live on through his peers and his children in which he did his "head fake" and said that is why he gave his speech.

overall the his lecture was awesome and happy i was forced to watch it even though i didnt want to but he had alot of good advice and it was like coming from a father and mentor and just an all around good speaker. I liked the presentation and encourage every teacher to watch this video as many lessons can be learned and taught.
