Tech I can use in my job
This class has given me quite a few different ideas of how to use technology in my current position. I think that the technology in video is the new age of professional sports. I just learned last week that there are computer programs that take video and can break them down into statistical data. This is very important in pro sports because it can show tendencies and give your team an advantage. This software is not used as commonly as you might think, but I feel it is the wave of the future, thus learning video editing may be a way for me to gain a big time job with a sports team in the future.
Podcasting Blog
One of the main concepts that caught my eye in the articles assigned were the discussions of using podcasts to reach students via mobile devices. It is more common now to see students with iPhones, iPods, iPads, and other iOS devices. These devices are "Cool" and being able to tie education and "cool" together gives us the ability to make education more connectable to our youth.
