October 5th blogs

Dr. Christie’s site
This site was pretty interesting, because it gave insight into a whole new world of technology and education. The photography link was probably the best thing on here. The part about web design was also interesting and eye opening. As I browse around this site I speculate and wonder of all of the possibilites and doors that can be opened becoming an educator. You have access to the mind without limitations. Dr. Christie has proven that because her website surely gained access to my mind.

iTunes University
Who would have known that something like this exist. This site is proof that technology has been taken to a whole other level. This site is great because its not only helpful to listen to lectures and talks from a school that you dont even attend, but it can be used as a great learning tool for students that suffer from learning disabilities. This site is very beneficail as a college student, and Im sure that even as a teacher it will in some way impact my life. Wheter doing some sort of research or just wanting to browse it seems as if this new "university" is one that will be around for a while.

iPods in instruction
How eye opening to find out that an ipod is not only a tiny little mp3 player uused to listen to music and watch the latest "jay-z" video. As the site proved, it is actually a developmental tool of the mind. This tiny little device can be used to teach and bring out new ideas in education, and it was right under our noses the entire time and we never even knew it!
