If my lo...I like to use a little but of everything. If my locally developed Science kids never completed the odd multiple choice test, then they would likely never get a drivers license. Unfortunately, sometimes the real world needs to be prepped for.

You...Brilliant post, and I couldn't agree more. Your sarcastic enthusiasm had me laughing out loud. Love this quote: "For every discussion we have about technology, we need to talk twice about pedagogy." This is why I spend weeks exploring the TPCK framework with my pre-service teachers. I want them to be purposeful about their use of technology. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this new YouTube feature that is guaranteed to change nothing.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06153846809046659053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707703066300530859.post-70593263330668893232012-10-07T22:06:27.571-06:002012-10-07T22:06:27.571-06:00Hello Joe,

I truly think it is a bad idea. <br /> However I agree with you on the statement; <br /> "I use technology everyday and I know that if educators ignore technology, we risk becoming irrelevant to our students. This is unacceptable. If we are so drunk on technology that we spend all our time making our jobs easier by "improving" what we've always done, we risk being irrelevant to our students."<br /> <br />We should not abuse the use of technology.<br /><br />Great post!

I like to challenge them in new and different ways. (I teach foreign language-French).I do not believe that multiple choice tests tell us anything other than that the test is easy. I am in favor of real thinking and analysis. That being said, evaluating papers for 160 students weekly leaves no time for me to cook, eat, clean, sleep or anything other than spending my time looking at and evaluating student work. I know that there are people out there that believe teachers are over paid, but to spend more than 80 hours a week grading and giving feedback is hard work! How do I compromise so I get some rest and the students get a high quality education that inspires original thought, creative thinking and true analysis? Any ideas?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707703066300530859.post-58106654106539060642012-10-04T21:32:56.705-06:002012-10-04T21:32:56.705-06:00Bazinga!
