Blog Post #10

First Graders in Ms. Cassidy's Class. This video shows us first graders using technology in Ms. Cassidy's class. The students seem to enjoy using this technology as they come off more engaged in the materials in the class as oppose to the teacher just standing up their talking about it, It shows us as future educators that as the years go by more and more technology will be introduced to classrooms.



Interview with Kathy Cassidy Part 1. This is the first part of an interview between Dr. Strange and Ms. Cassidy. She talks about how she was introduced to technology and how she had to adapt her teaching methods in order to fit this change.







Interview with Kathy Cassidy Part 2.  In the second part of the interview between Dr. Strange and Ms. Cassidy she talks about how she began her technology journey with stuff that interested her. I found this to be entirely true. In order to ease into change or try something new you must start with interests of ours in order to make it easier.



Interview with Kathy Cassidy Part 3. In the last part in the interview between Dr. Strange and Ms. Cassidy some of Dr. Strange student were able to ask Ms. Cassidy questions. Also Ms. Cassidy went on to say that the profession of teaching is ever changing. This struck true for me. As I am doing my field service hours for another ED class I have noticed that their are changes going on in classes on an annual bases.

  1. Patrick,
    You gave a nice brief summary to each video which is helpful for anyone who may not have seen the videos. I agree with Mrs. Cassidy's statement that you point out from the video Interview with Kathy Cassidy Part 3 that the profession of teaching is ever changing. As educators we should always be reviewing, modifying, and improving our teaching methods to become better teachers. In my opinion a teacher who does not change anything over time may be a cause for concern. I enjoyed reading your post.
    Sincerely,
    Paige Inman
