Tie Blog 2

So now that I am completely finished with my voicethread project I have some time to reflect on what I have learned. First off I think that the voicethread idea is a very neat site. It is a great way for educators to communicate via lessons and to share ideas. My students were very excited that they would be on the internet whether it be just their comments or not. This lead to my lesson being a lot more engaging than some of my others. I did have some issues with this assignment at first but soon worked out the kinks and made it work. I think that in the long run  I am better for doing this assignment.  I have learned even more so through this lesson that as educators we must be flexible because not everything always goes our way. I am very satisfied with what I have worked on and my finished product. I am looking forward to seeing what you all think as well! I love feedback!So with that I will ask my peers to possibly answer these questions:

1. What other ways could I have implemented the voicethread into this lesson that would have been a bit more intriguing for my students?

2. How could I implement this lesson into another subject area?

3. What were your favorite parts of this lesson? I love feedback!

Voice Thread

I have finally uploaded my voicethread! Unfortunately I had to create my own account because the other accounts were full but I got it done! My students had some interesting things to say about the lesson and it was overall a great experience in the classroom! This was one of my favorite lessons!
