Classroom Tech. Project Day

On our last class we spent much of the time introducing our creative projects to our group. My group was Patrick, Kira, and me. Patrick did a really cool power point that included interviews with a couple different teachers who really incorporate technology into the classroom. Kira did a nicely crafted movie of her experiences with technology. Both were really interesting and kept my attention. I did a mock Pardon the Interruption(PTI) skit where the focus was on technology in the classroom at the school I observe. I had a ton of fun creating it. I love the show and watch it everyday so it felt pretty natural for me to imitate Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon. Those guys are two of my favorite sports personalities.

Other than showing each other our projects we talked a lot about our upcoming project which is to create a technology based assessment. Everytime I think I understand what is expected of me on this one, I get a little more confused. I Of course, I'll give it my all and with hope and a little luck I will nail it down - maybe. This was by far the quickest class to date.

  1. I think you have gotten the jist of the assessment project. Did you do both voices on your presentation?

  2. Yea, I did all three voices. I slowed down the voice of Michael Wilbon to make it sound different and then sped it back up to have it flow like a normal conversation. For the CEO of Texas Instruments, I spoke with a southern accent and sped it up just a little. I had a lot of fun making it.
