Class 2... Twitter, Internet lawsuits, what more?!?

This week we discussed twitter for a social networking site.  I am currently an user on twitter, but I was hesitant of putting my username available to the classroom. I am very loquacious and blunt, straight to the point on twitter. Sometimes I tweet things I would not tell people that are not close to me or I do not know. So I hope I do not offend anyone in the class that is following me, IF I do, I am sorry but that is me you will have to unfollow me :)  I am excited though, this is something I do every day, tweet about what is going on.  Let's see whose the clown in our class. Make me laugh!!!

During our readings, I find them as a guide or helpful hints for teachers.  It's giving us ideas on what we should do and how we should.  I read the article about the lawsuit against the school that barred the two young ladies from sports.  I do not think they took care of it correctly.  They have parents and the school can only do so much.  They cannot be the parent and the teacher.  Only the parents have the right to do that. If the event did not occur on campus I do not think its fair for them to do that to those students.  The board maybe doing something and we do not know it, but if we found a picture of a board member doing something, would we barred them from coming to meetings or even suspend them? Probably not.  That is their personal life.  The article was very good and interesting.  I would share it. Click here!

Week one of CEd0535... Blog & Reading o_O

Today we had to blog about what we learned this week. And since I did not get my book yet. It supposed to arrive by the time I get home, I will just blog about my research with the other blog sites.  I really enjoy learning more about Edmodo. I mad an account as a teacher through them so I can see "the other side" and what they have to offer.  I enjoy how you can edit a student document, draw, edit, etc right there. I like how you can post the grades, have a discussion session, create quizzes, etc.  It's very cool and helpful for teachers.

After reading some other blogs about the readings, I noticed I may not be considered a blogger, I might be a journal writer. We will see when I read more about it.  This is the first blog of the class so far. So I hope I don't get to far behind. I did not think he would have reading the first week since people had to order, buy, or wait for their books. grrrr!!!! **Fingers crossed***
