Always learning something new...

Being a part of the MAIT program always lead to new finds in applications of technology.  It can be overwhelming, but I remember someone once telling me to find one thing that is applicable to you and what you teach and give it a try.  If it works, great!  Then it become part of your toolbox, I think all teachers have a toolbox of ideas for lessons.  If it doesn't work then you move on to the next one.

Recently, I found a new Web 2.0 tool that my students have enjoyed using to prepare for quizzes and tests. It's called Bubbabrain.com . It allows teachers to create simple review games, kind of like the game Memory, to review key terms and ideas.  The teacher must give his/her students their passcode and the students can go to the site, punch in the code and play.  I have used it in the past week with my students and they seem to enjoy it.  Give it a try!
