I loved this teacher’s style of teaching. I saw the students involved in the community, participating in service, learning plants and the eco-system, chemistry, research, computers, environment awareness, cause and effect, and debating which means the students needed to know their material well. There is no better lesson then life and this program showed it. I thought that is was nice to start the article off by stating that the teachers learned how to work concepts like these at a workshop because then it seems possible for me to achieve things like this for my classroom! “Inspiration 8” might be a better, or just another choice, of where students can show the material they learn like the one shown on page 3.
I enjoyed learning the program “inspiration 8” because it will more than likely come in handy for us as teacher in the future. Also the rubric program was so useful and necessary, that was very cool! This class is turning out to be less scary than I thought:-)!

I also agree that this class is becoming less scary. The past two lectures introduced tools that i can see my self using. In fact i am interested in attending the technology confrence in march and see what other tools are available for teachers!
I believe that when education gets kids involved in more than just the classroom it become a more enriching experience. You are right about the lesson it connects learning with many other things.
I also thought this article was great! Having a tool that the students can learn and possibly use in the future is great! And, yes it is a great visual aid too.
I agree with your comment about getting the students more involved in the classroom activities which also gets them involved within the community. I think that this helps the students relate what they are learning to their everyday life. Allowing students to feel as tough what they are learning in class plays a major part in their live is ideal to greater growth in the classroomTanfam17
Hello, I agree with the idea that Inspiration might be a good program to use in conjunction with Causal Mapping. They are both very visual tools for learning and I agree, very useful!
I agree that the teacher was a great one since he was able to implement technologies into his classroom to facilitate the learning process of his students. Not only did he engaged them in the technologies, but he was also letting them to response their own questions. The teacher was lecturing less and having students been involved.
I loved learning about Inspiration as well. Who knew that brainstorming could be so much fun? This class is definitely alot less scarier than the last computer class I took last semester. I am having such a good time learning.
Getting students involved seems to be the key in a lot of what is being taught in the education program. Having had boring classes with equally boring teachers, it comes to no surprise that keeping students lively and inspired is the focus for much of our curriculum. The programs we are learning in this class should help us immeasurably with this issue.
