Okay, so Doc Waters said I should basically type whatever I'm thinking, so I don't seem so shallow in my blogs. So here goes nothing... I actually really loved the video! I've even recommended it to my molly mormon sister who homeschools all 5 of her children (crazy, I know! :) - the homeschooling part, not me recommending it part) and she loved it, too! Ever since I showed her how to use the internet and how to look up things on teacher tube and you tube, she's addicted! :) By the way- all of these things I've only taught her how to do, has only been since I've been in this class! She didn't know anything about any type of computers at all- especially not the internet. Actually, she was afraid of the internet, and now she loves it! She says it's an "awkwardly amazing information source". *She was an english major at UVU when it was still a tech school* So, I loved the video. It's actually even inspired me to start my own educational video library on my computer. I just google the educational videos and then google the lyrics to them, so far I've been successful *knock on wood* to finding the lyrics to the songs I like. I do think that the videos on the internet are pretty cool, and I will definately use them in my classes when I teach. I honestly think that if I wanted to stop looking up the educational videos, I couldn't because my sister would make me find her more and I would get straight back into wanting to look for more- BOY the internet is ADDICTING!!! :) I have to admit, though, I do LOVE IT! :) as far as the UEN assignment is going- I HATE IT! It doesn't matter how many times I try to resend the validation email (I changed my email on file so I could have complete access to the tools on UEN.org) I STILL DON'T RECEIVE THE EMAIL! I'm so frustrated! I'm hoping I can get one of my classmates to logon for me tomorrow so I can get this assignment finished on time. So, I hope this blog was just what you were looking for, Doc Waters. If not, i guess I could babble on some more next week. :) HAVE A HAPPY DAY! :)
