Significant Postings from the Blogging Experience

The posting I felt was most significant to my blogging experience was my Philosophy of Technology video because it describes my personal feelings of how I approach technology in the classroom. As Confucius once said "Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in our life". Yes, teaching can be difficult, stressful and exasperating at times, but for me personally I have always enjoyed teaching as my profession. The classroom should be learning centered, differentiated, support multiple intelligences, transformational, and collaborative, as students experience learning through technology. George Bernhard Shaw said it best, "What we want is to see the child in pursuit of knowledge and not knowledge in pursuit of the child. The second posting significant to me was the news of Kathy Cox. How amazing that Georgia's School Superintendent was the first ever to win a million dollars on the television show Are You Smarter that a 5th Grader? In addition, she donated all her winnings to schools for the deaf and blind. Even more ironic was to read in this week's paper, her husband filed for bankruptcy due to his failing construction business. She it truly to be admired for her generosity!
