week6

I think book marking websites would be very useful when doing a research paper or just having things put back for a reference purpose. I think i will use this in the future on papers and other things. I find it to be useful.

week 4

I think spreadsheet is a very useful program for anybody. I know when i become a teacher and a coach that i will use it in both Fields. As teachers we use spreadsheets to keep all kinds of things organized. From grades to what objectives we still need to cover in the class. Using this instead of a calculator is way better because after you put in the formula once it will do all the calculations for you, saving you lots of time. I would also use it in coaching for keeping stats and player progress in order as well.

Inspiration

Inspiration seems to be a program that is by students to helped them brain storm ideas. I think the use of this program would be good in today's society where kids are spending more and more time on computers. I like how it helps students to organize there work and help them be more creative with there project or paper. Not sure i would use this in a physical education class where you spend most of your time learning and doing different physical activities. Although i do thin the student could use this program to organize how different activities relate to each other and how they help your physical health differently.

The diagrams would be the best used program off inspiration in a physical education class. This way you can connect the activities to how they relate to each other and how they help there physical health. This would give them a visable picture of how physical activites are alike. I think something like myleo where we have a discussion area to talk and give feedbakc to each other. I think if the students posted what they need looked at on something like that they could get good feedback and plagerism would be easy see. The one draw back would be students trying to still others ideas.

Blogging School

I think blogs are a great way to ask questions or give your comments to people of many different Fields. I think it depends on the class if blogging belongs or not. Class like Etec 424 blogging is good way to discuss what we are doing in class. I don't believe they are a waste of time they do have there place like anything if used right. Like in physical education blogging could be a good way to ask questions on how to do different exercises or activities.
