Comments on the Article

I think what the author of the article is saying is true I don't like it. Don't get me wrong I love the Internet,but I think you must learn the basic stuff first. For example, the first book I read in school was Buffy and Mack and I loved it. We must teach from books and newspaper so children can appreciated to Internet and their myspace page. I don't know I could be wrong but that what I think.

"ACCESS"

Access stands for Alabama Connecting Classroom Educator Students Statewide. This program is being by different educators and our governor to help Alabama school to move in the 21st century. The grant for this program will include classroom equipment, training, and support. This program can help student that live in Huntsville communicate with teachers in Mobile.
This program can be a good for the state of Alabama.

Using "ALEX" in the Classroom

I want to teach high school history. I might you "ALEX" by using some lessons plans that on there. I might use the personal workspace to make lesson plans or communicate with other teachers by email.
I can also use ALEX to show parent what the state requirements and the things their children are learning. ALEX contains good information this is something I might implentment in my classroom when I start teaching.

ALEX

ALEX stand for Alabama Learning Exchange. Alex is a good resource for teachers. It has a many different section, like lesson plans, distance learning, professial learning, personal workspace, and different web link.
All these section have great information. For instance, professinal deveolpment section contains infomation about deveolpment opportunites, and the latestlearning tools. Alex can help teacher to make teaching better.

Power Point Presentation

The title of my presentation is "My Life Changed When I Turned Eleven". It is about my twin cousin, who were born two days after my eleventh birthday. They are a important part of my life and we are very close.

All about me

I am a real down to earth person who speak her mind when asked. I am a Surgical Tech but I am not happy with my profession any more, that why I am going back to school.
I have always had a passion for history so I decide that I wanted to teach high school history. In my down time I liked to watch movies.
