Post 7. I think?
I'm actually not sure. But we're definitely on chapter 6. I hope. If not, then I read the wrong chapter...
Chapter 6: Technology, Digital Media, and Curriculum Integration.
Yay, so now we get to integrate what we already know into what we're planning on majoring in.
Haven't we been doing this all year?
The chapter begins by explaining curriculum to us. Education majors. If we are education majors, shouldn't we already be aware of what curriculum is? I am. And I'm not about to summarize it in a blog at 1230 in the AM.
As I page through the chapter, I am bombarded with tidbits of information that I already know. I wouldn't be so against these blogs if it weren't for the content. I want to learn something. This book only serves as a reminder of how incredibly wasteful and greedy our culture is. Many trees could've been saved had this book not been published. And, it cost at freaking butt-load for us to buy. What the hell?
Aside from my rant. The chapter explains to us how we can integrate technology into our curriculum, via learning styles, instructional strategies, learning processes, lesson plans based on instructional models, and learning centers.
So it is basically a more in-depth analysis of what we discuss in Intro to Ed and whatever the name is for the class we're in this semester.
Anyways, the second half of this blog has to do with what we learned this past week.
I've learned that I hate, with the burning passion of a thousand suns, the SAM program.
