Day 3, 1/26/10

On day three of class we joined a online site for teachers called Classroom 2.0. This is a website that helps teachers connect with other teachers and discuss many topics and how they are integrating technology into their classroom. This assignment falls under standard three, Model Digital-Age Work and Learning, teachers exhibit knowledge, skills, and work processes representative of an innovative professional in a global and digital society. Standard 3B states: teachers collaborate with students, peers, parents, and community members using digital tools and resources to support student success and innovation. And could also fall under Standard 5A, which states: teachers participate in local and global learning communities to explore creative applications of technology to improve student learning. I would use this website in my classroom to interact with other chemistry teachers and see how they use all these new technologies to help the students learn and be more interested in chemistry.
