Driving Lessons

The Smartboard project worked out pretty good. The group did very well as each one of us used free time on three occasions to work on it. The two students who critiqued our lesson did exceptionally well on the exam that we posed. Each of them made 100 percent. Originally we had made a mistake on one of the answers which gave them a 90, but with a few corrections to our form and presentation that was corrected.

We actually got to watch Anthony Capps do a presentation on the smartboard which gave us a pretty good idea of how to use it. We had the basics at that point which helped us move forward in production. Stephen helped us with the new smartboard response tablets, I am not exactly sure what they are called but this will work. The students were able to take their exam from a hand held device which automatically entered in their grade when they were done. I thought this put us a step ahead of everyone else with the extra time that we spent doing it.

I would love to commend my group for a great job. Each member did an equal amount of work as well as an equal amount of time spent. We are not great speakers but we definitely got the point across and our students did great with the lesson as well. Overall, our use for the smartboard has expanded drastically over the past few weeks and should motivate us since we already have a solid foundation on smartboard use.

  1. Great picture at the end-- your group certainly deserves the "fist pound." I relayed the same message to Ashleigh and I hope you will help pass it along ot your other group participants... Y'all rose far above and beyond. It is one thing to simply pay attention to what is going on around you even when its not required, but to apply it without prompting is why I look up to you so much. I really hope that y'all keep up your valiant student efforts. I look forward to more excellent surprises, and I assure you I will continue singing praises about your group effort to the Doc and staff of EDM310.

    If you ever have an idea or need direction, please don't hesitate to get in touch-- I would love to be part of whatever y'all do next.
