thesis to be this: It is good to use 2.0 in public schools. It is bad
not to.
I have now set up Blogger to post my blogs via my email using
mail2blogger. I am using my iPhone as my mail device. I can add a
picture or a video too. I can teach from my iPhone by delivering
content and assignment details to students on my blog.. Student can
use their phones to post a reply back to me or to their blogs.
Here is an "off the cuff" example of a lesson.
Topic: Native Plants of Indiana Field Research
Assignment: using your phone, or computer and digital camera, find a
plant that is native to Indiana and include an attached photo taken by
you.
Tell us two facts about the plant and then submit a inquiry plan with
two research questions and a possible information source you will use
to answer your questions.
Example: This is a young Tulip tree that is indigenous to Indiana and
is the official state tree. Right now it is about 2 ft tall. At
maturity it can grow to over 75 ft tall. That is around the size of a
7 story building.
I will use the trees database on INSIPRE.net to discover the
scientific name of this tree. Then I will try to discover why this was
choosen as the state tree.
Yeah, I can see it...
