According to the video and examples for the program Inspirations i was very impressed i feel like this program would be very interacting toward the students. In today's world kid's feel more comfortable with technology than my generation or even my parents generation. I meet kids every day that can use a computer ten times faster than i can. I do believe this program is something i would want my department to utilize, but i would definitely want to have a cause for the program before i purchased it.
1. I do believe you can replace a writing assignment with this program, but i do believe that if kids cant do a simple writing assignment then that's sad on our parts. I believe that employers are eventually going to be looking for people who can write a letter per say then just make a presentation. Although presentation's have there purpose, but there are times when its not appropriate.
2. As we all know times will change as we teach for years. I believe that staying up with new technology's i not just good for you, but its a way for you to relate with students. I still believe that right now were in a technology boom and we have to utilize that opportunity.
3. One of the first times i taught a group was when i was just hanging around my old Ag department some kids asked why plants grow. I started explaining to the kids, and they taught me more of how to relate to them more than plant science. I was
able to teach them plant practices and they were able to teach me thing though a life experience. I don't believe any of us are ready to teach and there isn't a class that can prepare you for that you just have to get out there and do the work.
