Many Favorite Things...United Streaming!

As I reflect back at everything I have learned so far, I have enjoyed so much learning and growing from this MILP project- I will be sad that it will not continue but I am glad teachers can still participate in another technology event- I use United Streaming so much that my final blog post needs to address how wonderful it has been for me to teach with it- If I can get my act together- I believe that I will use more of the information taught to us! But I am using United Streaming to find video clips to use in class and these videos have generated great class discussions! Thanks for everything! MILP has taught me so much!

Thing #20 Podcasting

How interesting it has been using a few podcasting lectures in my classes- I haven't done it live but I have recorded myself through the phone with a few of my lectures. I have a student who is on medical leave quite a lot and for his assignment I had him listen to the lecture notes and answer questions. I saw him again today (Monday) and he stated that the lecture helps more than just copying my notes down. I'm glad it does for him! Now I just have to do more of it since it has helped him. Can I saw "wow" again!

Thing #23 Del.icio.us!

Can I cay Wow! Perhaps one of the best part of this project is using Del.icio.us! I'm done with bookmarks! I created my Del.icio.us site with information for all my classes- I can actually organize it and use it more effectively than my bookmarks! I have students coming in this week to work on make-up work and I'm hoping to show them some of the sites on my Del.icio.us site to help them. I believe this is by far the most organized I have been with my websites!
