2007.07.23 09:32:20 XochitlP left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 09:32:24 AndreaZ: Good morning everyone.  I would like to begin my presentation with a question.

2007.07.23 09:32:36 MarcS: shoot

2007.07.23 09:32:43 XochitlP joined the room.

2007.07.23 09:32:44 AndreaZ: How many of you are visual learners?

2007.07.23 09:33:01 RubenB: me

2007.07.23 09:33:01 KarinaS: me too

2007.07.23 09:33:02 LudivinaV: for some subjects

2007.07.23 09:33:04 XochitlP: what was the question

2007.07.23 09:33:06 SamanthaRG: moi again

2007.07.23 09:33:06 JovanaG: i do

2007.07.23 09:33:06 RuthM: sometimes

2007.07.23 09:33:07 IrmaalcatG: i love it

2007.07.23 09:33:08 AraceliaG: me

2007.07.23 09:33:11 KarinaS: me

2007.07.23 09:33:16 VanessaT: i do

2007.07.23 09:33:19 AndreaZ: The Teacher Resource I will be presenting today deals with using technology in the classroom.  As time advances, we all know kids are into movies, videos, music and much more.

2007.07.23 09:33:22 LudivinaV: i like it when i know how to use it

2007.07.23 09:33:22 XochitlP: itd ok

2007.07.23 09:33:22 EduardoG: me

2007.07.23 09:33:24 LuciaG: me

2007.07.23 09:33:27 DanikaB smiles

2007.07.23 09:33:28 JoAnnaG: i am too but i like a lot of hands on

2007.07.23 09:33:39 AndreaZ: As a visual learner, I believe children learn better when they can have something they can see or something they can explore, using technology and getting outside of the little pictures on a text book.

2007.07.23 09:33:50 MarcS: interesting

2007.07.23 09:33:58 AndreaZ: I found a very useful and interesting resource on:  http://www.teachersfirst.com/getsource.cfm?id=8298

2007.07.23 09:33:59 NancySali: yeah

2007.07.23 09:34:02 JulissaL: true

2007.07.23 09:34:10 AndreaZ: can everyone go to the link please?

2007.07.23 09:34:18 JovanaG: okay

2007.07.23 09:34:20 JoAnnaG: already there

2007.07.23 09:34:23 AlexandrMB: already there

2007.07.23 09:34:23 DanikaB appreciates the pedagogical principle introducing the resource.

2007.07.23 09:34:24 EduardoG: Have the new wonders been chosen yet?

2007.07.23 09:34:25 DanikaB smiles

2007.07.23 09:34:32 AidaM left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 09:34:35 MarcS: The new 7 wonders

2007.07.23 09:35:11 AndreaZ: This site has 3D virtual tours of many places around the world.  The site is useful for teaching lessons on geography, landforms, world cultures, foreign language study, or literary settings (for those future English teachers).

2007.07.23 09:35:22 SamanthaRG: WONDERFUL

2007.07.23 09:35:30 AmeliaIG: i see

2007.07.23 09:35:37 MarcS: impressive

2007.07.23 09:35:38 AndreaZ: You can use a projector in your class (if you have one) to view different places that you might have read or lectured about in class with your students.  This will have an even stronger impact on your lesson, if the children can virtually visit the place.

2007.07.23 09:35:38 CatherineZ: I appreciate the literary settings! (as a future english teacher!) :)

2007.07.23 09:35:40 EduardoG: I voted incessantly for Rio De Janiero... I am thrilled. thanks andrea

2007.07.23 09:35:41 CarolynJC: looks complicated

2007.07.23 09:35:54 NancySali left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 09:36:19 MariaBa left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 09:36:28 DanikaB: carolyn, do you think it is too complicated?

2007.07.23 09:36:28 AndreaZ: it's not that complicated, just look for a place you like and become familiar with the cit

2007.07.23 09:36:31 AndreaZ: cite

2007.07.23 09:36:35 CarolynJC: kinda

2007.07.23 09:36:42 AmeliaIG: i think so too

2007.07.23 09:36:47 CarolynJC: too much wording for kids

2007.07.23 09:37:03 DanikaB: andrea, what grade level would you recommend this resource for?

2007.07.23 09:37:09 JoseRH: well for upper level i think it is great

2007.07.23 09:37:09 AndreaZ: i think maybe you could look for the place and present it to them before class

2007.07.23 09:37:10 XochitlP: well its probably for older kids

2007.07.23 09:37:13 NancySali joined the room.

2007.07.23 09:37:14 AraceliaG: I like the moon area aabout the apollo landing very educational

2007.07.23 09:37:16 AndreaZ: i think high school would be better

2007.07.23 09:37:17 AlexandrMB: it's probably for older kids in ms or hs

2007.07.23 09:37:22 MarcS: i'd say 8th and up

2007.07.23 09:37:26 AlexandrMB: i agree

2007.07.23 09:37:29 EduardoG: I agree too

2007.07.23 09:37:31 JoseRH: and it is never too ealry to introduce little ones to higher thinking

2007.07.23 09:37:32 LuciaG: agree with andrea

2007.07.23 09:37:41 AlexandrMB: especiall if tehy had summer reading

2007.07.23 09:37:53 MarcS: it's never too late

2007.07.23 09:38:05 AndreaZ: because you can use it as a presentation on a projector, they would only observe

2007.07.23 09:38:13 CatherineZ: Upper level seems right to me

2007.07.23 09:38:13 DanikaB nods at andrea

2007.07.23 09:38:14 MarcS: kids are living in the modern age of technology

2007.07.23 09:38:15 SamanthaRG: we underestimate kids if they can figure out a video game they do this

2007.07.23 09:38:27 SamanthaRG: middle school for sure

2007.07.23 09:38:27 AlexandrMB: yep!

2007.07.23 09:38:30 SonyaAndrV: I dont think the site is too complicated, but if it is for some its important that the teacher and student explore it together like the technologoy article we read the other day explains

2007.07.23 09:38:43 AndreaZ: has anyone tried to look a video?

2007.07.23 09:38:43 MarcS: yeahj

2007.07.23 09:38:50 EduardoG: it is not about underestimating the kids, it about keeping their interest in mind...Sam

2007.07.23 09:39:02 SamanthaRG: looks like a newspaper layout which is always good for them to get used to

2007.07.23 09:39:11 AlexandrMB: i agree

2007.07.23 09:39:17 DanikaB: good connection, sonya.... how might we do that, do you think?

2007.07.23 09:39:21 XochitlP: what do u mean

2007.07.23 09:39:32 XochitlP: oh never mind

2007.07.23 09:39:36 SonyaAndrV: Probably in a lab, where everyone can have a chance to use the computer

2007.07.23 09:39:37 JovanaG: should we all take the time right now to look at a video

2007.07.23 09:39:40 DanikaB: andrea, i am afraid to bring up a video at the moment because i've kind of maxed out the computer i am working on

2007.07.23 09:39:44 LuciaG: nop

2007.07.23 09:39:45 SonyaAndrV: and there is already a screen set up for the teacher

2007.07.23 09:39:47 DanikaB can't wait for her laptop to get here

2007.07.23 09:39:47 JulissaL: true

2007.07.23 09:40:00 AndreaZ: everyone go to the seven wonders link

2007.07.23 09:40:02 AndreaZ: please

2007.07.23 09:40:24 AndreaZ: then go to "the great wall"

2007.07.23 09:41:16 MarcS: haha

2007.07.23 09:41:18 AndreaZ: so the teacher can do this on a projector or she can give the students directions like i did

2007.07.23 09:41:20 MarcS: proceed

2007.07.23 09:41:25 JovanaG joined the room.

2007.07.23 09:41:27 LuciaG: i like it

2007.07.23 09:41:28 LourdesR joined the room.

2007.07.23 09:42:02 XochitlP: this is nice

2007.07.23 09:42:27 DanikaB: how did you choose this resource, andrea?

2007.07.23 09:42:29 AndreaZ: there's stonehenge, martin luther king memorial, and many more

2007.07.23 09:42:37 AndreaZ: i wen to teachersfirst.com

2007.07.23 09:42:38 JulissaL: how would you do that? is it only with the places that are listed in that website or can you search it and it  will come up

2007.07.23 09:42:59 JoseRH left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 09:42:59 EduardoG: the website is innovative and user friendly.

2007.07.23 09:43:06 SamanthaRG: OOOOOO Machu picchu

2007.07.23 09:43:12 AndreaZ: you can searche the website

2007.07.23 09:43:15 NancySali left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 09:43:16 JulissaL: oh ok

2007.07.23 09:43:31 DanikaB: are you interested in travel and geography?

2007.07.23 09:43:31 MarcS: this is incredible

2007.07.23 09:43:32 AndreaZ: im sure not everything is in there

2007.07.23 09:43:37 AndreaZ: but a lot of places are

2007.07.23 09:43:58 JovanaG left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 09:43:59 EduardoG: did everyone vote for the new seven wonders?

2007.07.23 09:44:16 AndreaZ: yes, and as a student if my teacher were lecturing about a certain place, it would make it more interesting if i could see it

2007.07.23 09:44:16 IrmaalcatG: no i didnt

2007.07.23 09:44:25 SamanthaRG: will make literature come alive

2007.07.23 09:44:31 JovanaG joined the room.

2007.07.23 09:44:51 EduardoG: i agree with andrea and samantha

2007.07.23 09:44:55 AlexandrMB: their imaginations will go wild

2007.07.23 09:45:01 MarcS: geography as well

2007.07.23 09:45:06 AndreaZ: yes

2007.07.23 09:45:16 LourdesR: I agree

2007.07.23 09:45:19 DanikaB: because you visually stimulated them!

2007.07.23 09:45:22 EduardoG: and ours too alexandr unless experienced in person. smiles

2007.07.23 09:45:26 AndreaZ: this is my presentations, does anyone have anymore questions

2007.07.23 09:45:27 JulissaL: just looking at the pictures would then lead into discussions that the students would be intersted in

2007.07.23 09:45:40 AlexandrMB: eddie i know !

2007.07.23 09:45:40 KarinaS: I think its great. Good Job Andrea.

2007.07.23 09:45:53 SonyaAndrV: Andrea, this was really good and it is an excellent idea for teachers to use.  Geography might be hard to capture students attention, and this will be helpful for that

2007.07.23 09:45:54 JulissaL: Claps for andrea

2007.07.23 09:52:26 DanikaB smiles

2007.07.23 09:52:50 AlexandrMB: what i like about it is that it  uses music  from everday life and incorpated w school

2007.07.23 09:53:08 SamanthaRG: cool

2007.07.23 09:53:12 EduardoG: ditto

2007.07.23 09:53:12 MarcS: i like that concept

2007.07.23 09:53:14 MarcS: it works

2007.07.23 09:53:16 AlexandrMB: it lets the students explore themselves and what they think of the world

2007.07.23 09:53:26 LourdesR: cool sites

2007.07.23 09:53:50 JoseRH: this is great

2007.07.23 09:53:51 CarolynJC: on the dreamer website does sound play?

2007.07.23 09:53:57 JoseRH: very intresting

2007.07.23 09:53:59 DanikaB: Alexandra, does the fact that it uses everyday life music mean the students are more likely to feel like what they are learning is relevant to them?

2007.07.23 09:54:01 JoAnnaG: sorry guys but i was bummin the wireless internet while i was getting my car fixed and my car is ready so im gonna go home and access this when i get there bye

2007.07.23 09:54:18 JoseRH: yea

2007.07.23 09:54:19 CatherineZ: i think so, Danika

2007.07.23 09:54:24 LudivinaV: what better way than to incorporate it into your everyday learning

2007.07.23 09:54:25 AlexandrMB: it shows work from students themselves

2007.07.23 09:54:34 AlexandrMB: pictures of them too

2007.07.23 09:54:38 CatherineZ: it'll keep them more interested

2007.07.23 09:54:48 DanikaB nods... so this fits into the principles of teaching writing that we looked at earlier in the class, right?

2007.07.23 09:54:49 JoseRH: yep

2007.07.23 09:54:54 IrmaalcatG: it is a good combination

2007.07.23 09:55:00 AlexandrMB: yes it lets the students  connect to it and not misunderstood

2007.07.23 09:55:07 JulissaL: yea

2007.07.23 09:55:19 LourdesR: yes

2007.07.23 09:55:22 AlexandrMB: yes it does

2007.07.23 09:55:35 DanikaB: I have always found using music is effective myself... have you all had teachers use music in your classes?

2007.07.23 09:55:36 AlexandrMB: it make it see they can too make a difference

2007.07.23 09:55:39 CatherineZ: yes, ma'am

2007.07.23 09:56:07 SamanthaRG: would have enjoyed it though

2007.07.23 09:56:12 AlexandrMB: so thats why i found it so capiiating

2007.07.23 09:56:13 CatherineZ: In one of my classes, we used the lyrics of a song and applied them to our lives. Like we analyzed them...i enjoyed that

2007.07.23 09:56:14 DanikaB: ah, alexandra, you missed out so you want to make sure all the future teachers don't make their students suffer as you did, right!

2007.07.23 09:56:14 LourdesR: yes, Dr. Cole for my class

2007.07.23 09:58:38 SonyaAndrV: Teachers need to find a way to connect to their students, so we need something that reaches them.  Music is one of the things that reaches them.

2007.07.23 09:58:54 DanikaB: a nicely put pedagogical principle, sonya!

2007.07.23 09:58:54 AlexandrMB: i think it lets the students explore everything like music and tie it in to education

2007.07.23 09:58:56 CarolynJC: are we suppose to be hearing music with every web page

2007.07.23 09:58:56 DanikaB smiles

2007.07.23 10:00:18 DanikaB: okay, does anyone have any questions for Alexandra, or did you want to direct us to anything else on the site?

2007.07.23 10:00:29 XochitlP: having student create their own music would be a good idea to

2007.07.23 10:00:38 XochitlP: based on what theur learning

2007.07.23 10:00:44 AlexandrMB: yes it is

2007.07.23 10:00:44 AndreaZ: why do you think teachers don't get this creative?

2007.07.23 10:00:47 DanikaB: nice suggestion, xoch

2007.07.23 10:00:48 XochitlP: it could be a rap

2007.07.23 10:00:56 JoseRH: yep

2007.07.23 10:00:59 AlexandrMB: because some dont  think outside the box

2007.07.23 10:04:19 AlexandrMB: noce quote

2007.07.23 10:04:20 JovanaG: Before I get started I would like to ask everyone a question?

2007.07.23 10:04:20 JovanaG: How many of you will become teachers, either elementary or secondary?

2007.07.23 10:04:29 JulissaL: raises hand

2007.07.23 10:04:30 DanikaB: ah.... social constructivism!

2007.07.23 10:04:30 AlexandrMB: me

2007.07.23 10:04:31 XochitlP: high school lit

2007.07.23 10:04:31 VanessaT: me

2007.07.23 10:04:32 RuthM: me

2007.07.23 10:04:32 IrmaalcatG: me

2007.07.23 10:04:33 LourdesR: very true

2007.07.23 10:04:34 RubenB: me

2007.07.23 10:04:35 CatherineZ: ME! secondary...

2007.07.23 10:04:36 AmeliaIG: its not my goal but maybe in the future

2007.07.23 10:04:36 EduardoG: i love vygostky's teachings...

2007.07.23 10:04:38 AraceliaG: me

2007.07.23 10:04:41 JoseRH: i will not me

2007.07.23 10:04:43 AmeliaIG: secondary probably

2007.07.23 10:04:43 MarcS: possibly...not sure yet

2007.07.23 10:04:45 JovanaG: wow

2007.07.23 10:04:46 LudivinaV: me

2007.07.23 10:04:49 SamanthaRG: not me but id like to think of myself as an unconventional "teacher"

2007.07.23 10:04:56 MarcS: ok good one

2007.07.23 10:05:01 IrmaalcatG: we are doing to need more schools

2007.07.23 10:05:05 JovanaG: For those of us who will be teaching math either in the elementary level or secondary level are aware that most students do not enjoy this subject.  At least I know I didn’t at one point in my educational experience.

2007.07.23 10:05:12 AndreaZ: not me..but i think we'll be teachers if we have children too

2007.07.23 10:05:18 AlexandrMB: i hate mah

2007.07.23 10:05:20 AlexandrMB: math

2007.07.23 10:05:25 SamanthaRG: true

2007.07.23 10:05:26 MarcS: math is the devil

2007.07.23 10:05:27 DanikaB never did super fantastic in math

2007.07.23 10:05:33 VanessaT: math...ugh!

2007.07.23 10:05:34 JovanaG smiles

2007.07.23 10:05:34 XochitlP: lol

2007.07.23 10:05:45 AndreaZ: math yucky

2007.07.23 10:05:46 JovanaG: I have found a very interesting website that assist teachers and students when comes to the subject of math.

2007.07.23 10:05:48 CatherineZ: i feel ya, Danika! me either...AKA..ENGLISH majors! lol

2007.07.23 10:05:48 JoseRH: I know

2007.07.23 10:05:49 EduardoG: i like basic math...not complicated math

2007.07.23 10:05:53 LourdesR: math and I don not get along

2007.07.23 10:05:58 DianaG: is the worse subject

2007.07.23 10:05:59 JovanaG: Right now I would like everyone to either google National Library of Virtual Manipulatives or click here http://nlvm.usu.edu/en/nav/index.html

2007.07.23 10:06:00 AlexandrMB: right cathy

2007.07.23 10:06:06 CatherineZ smiles

2007.07.23 10:06:25 DanikaB: virtual manipulatives.

2007.07.23 10:06:31 JovanaG: Now before we begin exploring the website I would like to give you some basic information about the website. Who created it and why.

2007.07.23 10:06:32 AmeliaIG is at the site

2007.07.23 10:06:34 DanikaB likes the sound of those words

2007.07.23 10:06:50 MarcS: you go jo!

2007.07.23 10:06:55 JovanaG: The National Library of Virtual Manipulatives (NLVM) is an NSF supported project that began in 1999 to develop a library of uniquely interactive, web-based virtual manipulatives or concept tutorials, mostly in the form of Java applets, for mathematics instruction (K-12 emphasis).

2007.07.23 10:07:06 AraceliaG left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 10:07:12 JovanaG: Learning and understanding mathematics, at every level, requires student engagement

2007.07.23 10:07:15 VanessaT left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 10:07:22 EduardoG: it offers the information in español which is awesome

2007.07.23 10:07:22 VanessaT joined the room.

2007.07.23 10:07:27 JovanaG: Mathematics is not, as has been said, a spectator sport. Too much of current instruction fails to actively involve students.

2007.07.23 10:07:28 KarinaS left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 10:07:41 JovanaG: One way to address the problem is through the use of manipulatives, physical objects that help students visualize relationships and applications. We can now use computers to create virtual learning environments to address the same goals

2007.07.23 10:08:09 JovanaG: First I would like to everyone to click on the Second Link titled Virtual Library.

2007.07.23 10:08:10 MarcS: hmmmm i like this concept very much

2007.07.23 10:08:18 LourdesR: And this is a great thing

2007.07.23 10:08:29 AraceliaG joined the room.

2007.07.23 10:08:30 JovanaG: This part of the website is the most important, informative and useful part of the site. On the left hand side you can see the different types of instructions: from numbers and operations to data analysis.

2007.07.23 10:08:42 EduardoG: i agree with marcS

2007.07.23 10:08:47 JovanaG: Across the top it also indicates the grade levels which you can enter depending on what grade you are teaching.

2007.07.23 10:09:01 JovanaG: For example lets go into the algebra section for grades Pre-K thur 2nd.

2007.07.23 10:09:05 LudivinaV: great site, now i know where to go if my son needs homework help

2007.07.23 10:09:13 DanikaB smiles at Ludvina

2007.07.23 10:09:17 JovanaG: You can see a list of different types of activities that can be used.  Lets click into Color Patterns. (remember you must have java for this to work)

2007.07.23 10:09:29 DanikaB: and coffee too

2007.07.23 10:09:36 JovanaG smiles

2007.07.23 10:09:47 LourdesR: smiles

2007.07.23 10:09:48 SonyaAndrV left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 10:09:52 JovanaG: It might take a moment but once  you have it up let me know

2007.07.23 10:09:53 SonyaAndrV joined the room.

2007.07.23 10:09:55 AraceliaG: funy

2007.07.23 10:09:58 AmeliaIG: got it

2007.07.23 10:10:33 VanessaT: yup

2007.07.23 10:10:36 JovanaG: On the hand you have a list of colors and on the bottom left you have the CHECK ANSWER and NEW PROBLEM options.

2007.07.23 10:10:58 JovanaG: Go ahead and take a two mintues to work out some problems remember to check you problem before going to the next question.

2007.07.23 10:11:07 JovanaG: sorry take two minutes

2007.07.23 10:11:09 AmeliaIG: many children play online games so this site is great because they can learn while they play

2007.07.23 10:11:15 JovanaG: i had this stuff prewritten

2007.07.23 10:11:15 DanikaB smiles at the integration of a class activity!

2007.07.23 10:11:30 LudivinaV: that is good practive with the check answer and new problem feature

2007.07.23 10:11:40 VanessaT: this is great

2007.07.23 10:11:47 LourdesR: how nice

2007.07.23 10:12:05 SonyaAndrV left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 10:12:11 JovanaG: How is everyone doing?

2007.07.23 10:12:12 EduardoG: this website is used by university professors here at panam right.

2007.07.23 10:12:17 LuciaG: ok

2007.07.23 10:12:34 LuciaG: its cool

2007.07.23 10:12:36 JovanaG: Great. You can also observe at the top of the problem there are different links

2007.07.23 10:12:36 JovanaG: BACK, ACTIVITIES, PARENT/TEACHER, STANDARDS and INSTRUCTIONS.

2007.07.23 10:12:37 IrmaalcatG: oh ok

2007.07.23 10:12:41 LourdesR: that's good to know

2007.07.23 10:12:45 SonyaAndrV joined the room.

2007.07.23 10:12:54 AmeliaIG: i like i like

2007.07.23 10:12:55 MarcS: teaching kids to be rocket scientists while they're young...this could totally get us even with Europe

2007.07.23 10:12:55 JovanaG: Each individual link gives you information on this particular problem and how to instruct it into your classroom.

2007.07.23 10:12:55 JoseRH: vey cool to know

2007.07.23 10:13:01 JulissaL: thats awesome

2007.07.23 10:13:59 SonyaAndrV left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 10:14:06 AmeliaIG: good job with your research

2007.07.23 10:14:10 JovanaG: This is an awesome website not only for teachers but for students and parents as well.

2007.07.23 10:14:22 VanessaT: so true

2007.07.23 10:14:23 JovanaG: Take about a minute or two and go back to the virtual library and click on different grade levels and math activities that this website provides.

2007.07.23 10:14:24 MarcS: it is a little complicated though, but i guess that's the beauty of it

2007.07.23 10:14:38 VanessaT laughs

2007.07.23 10:14:43 JovanaG: Test yourself, how good are you in math?

2007.07.23 10:14:51 JovanaG smiles

2007.07.23 10:14:53 SamanthaRG: i like the lady bug math problems for kids

2007.07.23 10:14:59 JoseRH left the room (signed off).

2007.07.23 10:15:08 SamanthaRG: i refuse to test myself LOL

2007.07.23 10:15:10 DanikaB: so you have used this site in a class?

2007.07.23 10:15:15 JovanaG: yes

2007.07.23 10:15:18 DanikaB: was it a math class or an education class?

2007.07.23 10:15:23 JovanaG: Elementary Math One

2007.07.23 10:15:27 EduardoG: apparently that good jovanaG. Smiles

2007.07.23 10:15:33 EduardoG: not

2007.07.23 10:15:34 DanikaB laughs at Samantha!    resist testing!

2007.07.23 10:15:36 JovanaG: teaching math to elementary students

2007.07.23 10:15:46 AndreaZ: correct me if i'm wrong, but state exams will no longer be mandatory by state law, that makes using these webcites in class easier

2007.07.23 10:15:47 DanikaB: i see... great.

2007.07.23 10:16:02 AndreaZ: teachers will have more options

2007.07.23 10:16:03 SamanthaRG: which state exams

2007.07.23 10:16:06 AndreaZ: taks

2007.07.23 10:16:15 CatherineZ: yeha, they r supposed to do away with it

2007.07.23 10:16:19 CatherineZ: in a few years

2007.07.23 10:16:20 AlexandrMB: yes that makes me happy

2007.07.23 10:16:20 DanikaB: well, it would depend on the school district I would guess... what might be some limitations to your ability to use the site?

2007.07.23 10:16:27 CatherineZ: But there still might be exit testing

2007.07.23 10:16:29 AlexandrMB: kids will be more prepared now in college

2007.07.23 10:16:33 JovanaG: Okay so how is everyone doing?  Did you have fun? Does anyone have any other questions they would like to ask?

2007.07.23 10:16:45 SamanthaRG: love the site

2007.07.23 10:16:53 VanessaT: i enjoyed it

2007.07.23 10:17:07 LourdesR: great site, thanks

2007.07.23 10:17:08 JovanaG: Well Thank You for your time, I hope everyone enjoyed this website.  Hopefully this will be a useful resource for some of you.

2007.07.23 10:17:08 DanikaB: We should also remember, even if they do away with the requirements for testing, it will probably take a while for the "culture of testing" to go away

2007.07.23 10:17:12 XochitlP: very useful

2007.07.23 10:17:14 VanessaT: but i still don't care for math...ugh!!!

2007.07.23 10:17:21 DanikaB: Excellent resource and presentation, Jovana.

2007.07.23 10:17:22 CatherineZ: what do u mean Danika?

2007.07.23 10:17:29 AmeliaIG: i like that the site can also be used in spanish

2007.07.23 10:17:30 JovanaG: Thank you

2007.07.23 10:17:32 JovanaG smiles

2007.07.23 10:17:33 CatherineZ: Culture testing...? Just curious....

2007.07.23 10:17:39 MarcS: math=bombs

2007.07.23 10:17:40 EduardoG: me too amelia

2007.07.23 10:17:41 AndreaZ: yes, and teachers can use these because they wont be pressured to use test handouts

2007.07.23 10:17:46 MarcS: atomic bombs

2007.07.23 10:17:47 JulissaL: as in we are yes to it

2007.07.23 10:17:48 MarcS: lol

2007.07.23 10:17:55 VanessaT: lol

2007.07.23 10:17:56 MarcS: and nuclear ones

2007.07.23 10:17:57 DanikaB: well, i think administrators (and even parents/teachers) might still be stuck in the mindset of testing for awhile... it's been so much a part of education culture recently.

2007.07.23 10:17:59 JulissaL: use*

2007.07.23 10:17:59 JovanaG laughs at MarcS comments
