Cartoon
This cartoon represents types of pencils. The Papermate pencil is cheap and breaks alot and the Ticonderoga is more expensive and reliable. They both serve the same purpose which is to write down information.However if we are trying as a society to make education in the classroom more computerized using either of these instruments will come to a end, but I feel in the classroom some writing should be still involved to educate students.
Why Kids Play Games
This post was interesting to me simply for the fact of I play games to. To me most people play games to exscape along day of work, school, or many other reasons. I believe if games were to be integrated in the classroom students would learn at a faster rate. I think education should be taking to the next level. Like Mr. Spencer said soldiers and doctors play games so why not play them in school for education reasons. I believe most students play games in class because of them being bored with the information that is being taught by teachers. If teachers would integrate different teaching methods instead of boring students to death they probaly won't play games during class time.
Dont't Teach Your Kids This
In this post it talks about the good and the bads of computers. Kids today will have more technology at the there finger tips than any other generation, but with that will come alot of dangers that parents will need to be aware of. With all of the techological advances of computers children will still make mistakes and be adventurous. It is up to parents and teachers to give the child the proper education of being computer literate.
One of your fellow students did an excellent job of reviewing your writing mistakes. I will add no further comments.
ReplyDeleteMr. Spencer uses satire and metaphors. Dr. Mcleod uses sarcasm. Many students miss understand the use of these writing techniques. Watch for a detailed explanation in the class blog next week. Be sure you read this post when it appears.
