New Thinking

Today in class, we had to take attendance by writing our names on the Smart Board. Sounds easy enough, however the board has not been calibrated and was actually ridiculous to even try and write on. I was probably the last student to complete said task and I ended up deleting the entire page of names (embarrassing!). New thinking for today: do not click random buttons; experimenting is good when you're trying on your own but not when you run the risk of putting the work of other people in danger.

I also learned about bookmarking today, which prior to the class I had heard of the term but didn't fully understand what it meant. Now I have a whole new way of storing my large collection of websites on my favorites bar in a more organized manner on delicious. I'm not used of tagging things, but this new way of organization will definitely benefit me now and in the future, especially since I plan to use various Spanish and English websites in teaching my Spanish and ESL classes. I can't wait to start bookmarking!
