ALEX is a very interesting website. ALEX is a website that should be used by every teacher in Alabama. It is set up as a one stop teaching tool for all teachers.


I have never heard of it but I am glad I spent the time to check it out. I probably didn't do it justice in going to see it because I know there is so much information on the website that I did not see. There was a lot of information on the website for teachers to use but the sad thing is I bet most teachers in Alabama do not know about this website. I know if this website was used by all teachers they would greatly appreciate it. I know one day I hope to use this website. It is truly a priceless piece of material.

Project #15

Progress report on final project

Our final project is coming along slowly but surely. We are playing with the idea of doing a presentation on South Alabama Football. We would also include a Timetoast project along with youtube videos.

Results and Summary for project #6

Being that we are at University form the South I knew everyone would know we have a football program here at South. The other part that did not shock me was that just a little over half the students in the survey have attended a game here at South. You can tell that is true by the amount of students that attend the football games. One thing that was encouraging about the survey was that 83% of the people surveyed thought a stadium on campus would help with attendance.

Now this were some easy assignments. They were both fun and interesting. Just wanting to be a teacher means you have a soft spot in your heart for kids. The majority of my assignment in this section was mostly younger kids. . As a whole my comments focused on how they told me they were doing and that they just need to keep working hard.

Ms. Cassidy is a very intelligent women. I feel like she gets the best best out of her students without pushing them too hard. I do like to see that her students are involved and interested in the technology she offers. I know the she is way a head of the game in regards to what her students can do. It's really going to help her students later on down the road. I hope Ms. Cassidy keeps up her ways of teaching her kids the uses and advantages of technology.

When I seen what Ms. Cassidy is doing with her students I really didn't see to much similarity in what I'm going to do with my kids. I plann on being a science teacher so all technology with using the Facebook and Twitter is basically out the window. I'm not saying that these things aren't useful in the classroom I just don't think they will be used in my teaching philosophy.

Blog Assignment #10

After reading Morgan's blog, I am happy to know other students go through the same difficulties that I do. She couldn't have said it in a better way. When I am sitting in my two hour classes two and three times a day, I find it very difficult to concentrate and participate. I also find it difficult in the early morning classes. Classes always seem to be more enjoyable when the professors include the students in the lecture topics and allow us to communicate with each other. Class is usually always more fun when the professor asks the students questions throughout the lecture, this always seems to get my attention to the material instead starring off into space. I know i can bet you if the classes were not as long, it would help us as students to retain all of the information given by the professor. I feel like the professors try to squeeze all of the material into these two hour sessions.

I feel like if students were participating more in the lectures then maybe they wouldn't wonder off and get bord with the material. Shortened class could even be a start to maybe trying to get student to pay more attention in class.

My sentence:

I am trying to better the younger generations with my inspiration of me getting a degree and making something good of myself.
