Week 10


I am again feeling that technology can be more of a curse that a blessing.  I am frustrated with using Sopia have been trying unsuccessfully to create a tutorial for 3 weeks and something is not going right at my end or on Sophia. However considering every else has completed one, it must be on my end.  I am soooo confused!!!
But on the other hand I like some of the ways you can use google earth, I was able to tie in the global awareness  with science, where we are reading about how humans change the ecosystems.  The Appalachian Mountains have many coals mines and students could see from the pictures that were tagged, just how devastating strip mining can be.   It also had a little information for them to read.
There were several other tools that I thought would be worthwhile investigating when I have a little more time.

  1. Sometimes the technology doesn't work the way we want it to, but we can find other tools to overcome this. Don't hesitate to log off and restart, that often helps, or go back to it the next day if it isn't working. Last resort ask someone for help.
