Reflection ch 8

Chapter 8 was very much like chapter 7.  The only difference is that chapter 7 was child geared.  I would be willing to guess that most children, who are computer literate, can work through the administrative software just as easily as the academic software. 
The TED TV clip was interesting.  I enjoy listening to Sir Ken Robinson.  He makes some very intriguing points about education.  I think like he thinks, I think.

Reflection ch 7

Chapter seven had some nice information about certain programs like word and spread sheet stuff.  It was a bit boring.  Some of the content I didn't know what it was called untill I read this chapter.  I knew what it was, but didn' know the name. 
Poptropica is nothing but interesting.  I really enjoy making my character do flips.  She flips everywhere.  I still do not know what the premiss is.

Reflection Chapter 6

Chapter 6 was about devices to make our lives a bit easier.  Most of the items discussed in the chapter I already knew about.  The video on TED TV was really good.  Starting a tutoring service would be something I would love to do.  The way Eggers got the center started was amazing.  I love to see creativity at work.  Art is more than drawing or sculpting.

unreflection

It was so nice to be ahead in this class.  I had read the chapter before we needed to, but I got confused and mixed up with my other class.  I decided not to post my reflection untill this week.  I will be on top of things once again.
Now I would like to let my followers know that I do not have internet at home, so my usage is limited.  I will try to get back with anyone as soon as I am able.
Next I want to comment on Jordan's party.  It was fun although I need to say that the 7th graders party way better than the 8th graders.  The 8th graders just stood around txtng.  I should have taken all phones!  Oh well, their loss:/
