Chapter 5 blog post

1. Chapter 5 integrating digital media and Educational software Applications . This to me sounds like a good idea but in all fairness only a had full of kids can afford things like electronic books, digital newspapers, and virtual reality in the class. Yes these things will add to your learning ability but with some schools today that can not even keep with recent text books how can pay for this technology. Lets move on to distance learning, the books defines this as delivery of education from one location to a remote location, i do not agree with this either you need the hands on experience of a teacher because you never know what problems the child might have with the material and if the teachers not there to pick up on it who is going to know. In all the chapter has creative ways of teaching but i just do not think we are ready for them on a national level yet.
2. The most recent skill i have learned is making web evaluation sheets and so far this is the most boring thing i have learned.
3. I like to share one thing, maybe if we stop trying to make teachers who are high tech and focus on them being better teacher our children would learn more.
