Joe Huber is not one my classmates this month, and I could not find any of my classmates in Educator Studio this month.

PE-5-My webtool myheritage.com work in progress.

Well here goes the posting on Faceook of my Family Genealogy idea, asking for people in my family to participate. I have even opened the idea up to spouses, and will have to revise invites as I think of them.

Now, off to work on getting this set up for my family, before my phone rings off the hook on Sunday, asking what the heck I am doing by starting something that does not readily work.

Here is proof that I am underway with this project...

BP4: 2nd Webtool Review

I found Ctynthia's post about using an app to take the place of Stick Pick to be my cup of tea, because I have had many successes and failures after picking and buying or choosing from free, the countless pieces of software available out for my son’s homework, that he completes on his Ipad.

The idea that kids in class do not want to respond to questions is true for any subject. Because, as I recall from when I substitute taught a Social Studies classroom, on a 30 day assignment, children and especially those with behavior problems find any excuse not to participate in class, or do their homework.

With the lack of parental involvement/encouragement in the education of their child lacking in many schools, this tool encourages students to answer based on where they are on the various levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy.

PE3 Movie-

I will have to reserve this spot for what will be an image my lynda.com certificate of compeletion for I-movie-11.

Since that has not happened yet, there is no need to lie about it, and just a need to get it done..

However in keeping with the rule of having a graphic image in every blogpost, here is a cute last winter picture, that should keep you, the reader entertained until I finish the lynda.com I-movie training.

I also  became aware of the need to use lynda.com and find the time to use it faithfully, as well as how easy the online narrator for that service explains software packages, like I-movie that are on there.

I really did not count on having to spend that much time using lynda.com, but now see the error of my ways, and just how needed this time is and to make matters worse I became ill after eating some seasoned meat at a local eatery, that must have had garlic in it, and made very ill because I am allergic to garlic, in ways that are too graphic for me to go over in this blog.
