Did they have assignments posted, which you commented on? <BR/> I too agree that when it comes to technology some teachers often limit their students, and fail to realize what they are really capable of. I believe that it is not only because of money, like you had mentioned, but also because of our own lack of knowledge. I think that technology is foreign to some teachers, that they underestimate the abilities of their students. <BR/> I suppose this could happen with specific subjects as will. If we, as teachers, are intimidated by something we may try avoiding it. Really, however, I believe the corrective action is to keep educating ourselves, even if it means learning from our students.Nicksterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15362410141673152897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34225169.post-8740986308731143622007-08-13T06:34:00.000+01:002007-08-13T06:34:00.000+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Nicksterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15362410141673152897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34225169.post-76244269607590324522007-08-07T21:41:00.000+01:002007-08-07T21:41:00.000+01:00Hi CrystalI was amazed at what the little guys cou...Hi Crystal<BR/>I was amazed at what the little guys could do in Kathy's class. Wow they were so talented and it was all so easy for them. She is very talented herself, it would be so cool to intern in her class. I will be standing at the front of the line to try and get her for my placement. That is great that you saw your blogging buddy again. It is so easy to get attached to the students.Rondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03022298386916640524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34225169.post-65149320562576872832007-08-06T04:21:00.000+01:002007-08-06T04:21:00.000+01:00Hey Crystal, pretty cool that you and your bloggin...Hey Crystal, pretty cool that you and your blogging buddy met again by chance!<BR/>I too enjoyed the experience. It was also really great to make the digital connection with Kathy Kassidy. As future teachers we can learn a lot from her and how she uses technology in the classroom.Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08067614841114465101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34225169.post-24193170607729954602007-08-04T20:18:00.000+01:002007-08-04T20:18:00.000+01:00It is great to see this experience has had such a ...It is great to see this experience has had such a lasting effect on both you and your blogger.

You are right children can learn anything if given the time and the nurturing.Miss Smitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14153520408970150177noreply@blogger.com
