This week in technology we learned about how technology services help in the classroom. I think that resources for students online that can be used at home for homework are really important. As teachers, we do not have the time to share all the resources students can use at home to further or help their learning and understanding. It is really important for students to know there are resources, and that they are really helpful when they cannot be at school to ask important questions.
For me, I always struggled with math. I remember going home every day frustrated and confused with what we learned at school that day. For as long as I can remember, I never understood math the way everyone else did. Luckily, there were resources for me to get ahold of to try and learn more at home to be up to speed. One of the resources we went over is a screencast video from the Khan Academy
I used Khan Academy a lot for my math struggles in high school. These videos are truly amazing as it is a professional teacher using a board and explaining at the same time. In my career, I will definitely be using these resources for my students to have at home.
