Whiteboard

Growing up I was one of the few kids that actually loved going to school to learn. Weird, I know. Unfortunately the same place I loved to be at was also a place of my worst nightmares. At a young age I was antisocial and unable to start let alone hold a conversation with anyone. I got bullied for awhile, only had a couple of friends, and was always excluded from groups. I’ve never blamed anyone but myself. I believe children that grow up doing some type of outside school activity tend to be…

I had to change my lesson plan in the first few minutes. I realized it when the students were not able come up with their own examples of singular and plural possessive nouns. The planned task, having the kids write and share examples on their whiteboards, was supposed to be a quick review, reminding students what they had learned in the two lessons before this one. I decided to refresh their memory by doing an example and explanation on the board for them. After that, I had them write their own…

and telephone have had little consideration, but these tools have an older and stronger history as pedagogical means. Consequently, the utility of elder technologies such as radio and television with new ICT tools for instance laptop, interactive whiteboard, LCD projector, Internet and social networks in educational settings, have a background in education. (Salehi & Salehi, 2011). One of the most widely discussed subjects in the area of education is the use of ICT in English…

reflect on my aim, I realised that it is too broad and I should just focus on improving the communication between the patients and the nurses using the bedside handover. I have also given a second thought about the alternative methods such as using whiteboard communication and Isobar handover system suggested by the ACSQHC (Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care, 2011; Wallis, Chaboyer, McMurray, Wallen, & Chang, 2008). However, these methods mainly improve the communications…

First of all is my whiteboard calendar. Now to most this may seem like a mundane “prop,” but for me, it is a lifesaver. I am a very organized person, and this calendar is essential for keeping me organized and on-task, all while adding some fun color to the plain white walls…

In my writing, I have followed the ethical guidelines written by The British Educational Research Association (BERA 2011). Any names I have used, I have replaced to protect their anonymity and to maintain confidentiality. REF I gathered the information used in my writing, from a number of sources. I researched the internet for additional reading and used the relevant module materials associated to my enquiry. While preparing for my enquiries, I considered the following four key points for…

Students studied the projected pictures of the frogs and decided to name the frogs Star and Pepper based on their physical attributes. Later on, Geri unveiled the frogs to a visibly excited class and divided students into small groups to observe the frogs. Connecting their observation to lesson teaching point to “what scientists…

Technology can be very liberating for kids who are exceptional. By gaining an understanding of Instructional Technology as well as Assistive Technology educators will be able to recognize how they are both beneficial to student with disabilities. Assistive technology is defined as, “any device, piece of equipment or system that helps bypass, work around or compensate for an individual 's specific learning deficits.” (Stanberry & Raskind, 2009, para.4) A.T. is any equipment used to help someone…

At Anna High School in Mrs. Quinter’s physics classroom, you would have seen me in the front row deeply engaged into the subject. I occasionally raised my hand to ask a question or add my input into the discussion. I was always the first student out of my seat when we were allowed to begin our labs. I enjoyed working with my classmates to discover new information and be able to implement the results of the experiments to the real world. If I had free time in the lab, I would have conducted my…

The Escape “Run Wonton, Run,” I kept telling myself in a hurry. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me. “Trying to not get myself killed here,” in a rush telling myself. It was like a life and death situation. I saw in front of me a huge gap. For I second I thought it was the end for me, but I kept running. There it was only a few feet away and there was a platform on the other side. I knew there was only one way out of this….. 4 Hours Earlier Today “Dude how was detention…
