I was assigned to comment on Mr. Needleman's Blog. His first blog that i commented on was about the six ways teachers can improve education. He came up with six fantastic ideas that i believe will actually help teachers. To summarize them shortly they are 1. say hello at the door 2. eat in the teacher cafeteria 3. teach authentic writing 4. incorporate multi-media into every lesson 5. teach art as a dicipline 6. teach test prep two minutes every day. He says that doing this will help a teacher improve their education by doing new and improved things in their classrooms for their students.
My comments for this were simply that i agreed whole-heartedly with his six ideals and told him that i would be trying these ideas out in my first class. I told him also that i believe that it is very important for a teacher to say hello to a student because it is just a good way to break the ice, joke around with the kids, and get them to know and like you better. I also told him that i would be outside my classroom after every period saying hello to all my students.
The next blog i commented on was called Three Ways to Download Movies from Youtube. In this blog he simply put up three techniques with instructions on how to download videos from youtube.
I commented that this is a great thing to know because at some schools websites such as youtube are blocked and so the teacher would need a way to show a video in class and this would be done by downloading the video first then you would be able to watch it without having the trouble of a blocked website.
