Testing & Technology
Next week is testing for 7th & 8th graders at Pangburn High School! It will be a stressful week but I am confident that you will all do your best.
Testing Tips:
-Get plenty of sleep; 8+ hours would be best.
-Eat a good breakfast.
-Use your breaks to stretch & get your blood flowing
-STAY POSITIVE
Technology is amazing! I am writing this post from my Blackberry 8310 complete with Blackberry data package. Folks, this is so much more than a phone. Here is a list of features that I have utilized so far…
-Google maps allows you to get directions on the go and has a built-in GPS. It also has a search feature that allows you to search businesses and local restaurants.
-Mobile Web allows you to surf actual websites on the go and send/receive email.
-Note Pad allows me to jot down important reminders and take notes in meetings (yes, I actually used this feature the other day).
-The Calendar is much more functional than carrying around my old pocket calendar.
As you can see you can use this device to do so much more than simply txt/call your friends!
Is it just me or could this piece of technology be used (in the proper manner) in the classroom?
Your thoughts/comments, Please.
