Using Technology in F2F is possible too

I have to admit that although I do not teach online yet, I am a tech “addict” and I have learned all this goodies just for my face-to-face classes and for my own delight. I am constantly looking for fun stuff to learn.

First I took the test and I got one incorrect answer (the open source one). Then, I read and saved Dave’s page. Html is not something  you learn from reading one time! I took many classes on html and I still need help because, like piano, if you do not practice it frequently you forget it all 🙁  When I need html I use Kompozer;  Notepad, or if I am at a Miracosta campus I use Dreamweaver, and time to time you find out that knowing a little of html saves you a lot of time.

I use Google Reader and I added Pedagogy First ‘s Blog feed now. I am a fanatic of Google. I use: Google Drive, voice, reader, sites, blogger, chat, plus, picasa… and anything else you propose!

And for the video, I learned a new way to embed it. It is simple and easy. I chose this video that talks about teachers using WordPress Blog for their classes. I like WordPress and since Miracosta Provides it, I think I will consider start blogging soon for my F2F classes, at least.

Here it is, enjoy!
