Thing 15 Wiki


Searching through the Wiki picture i really like seeing these three pictures. The first picture was very beautiful  and creative. The second picture i thought was very funny to use vegetable soup in order to get the point across.The third picture was awesome. I never thought of using a flowchart for any other subject besides English, so this was by far the great of them all. There were several ideas Incorporated in WilKi but from the last picture that include a flowchart this really helped me to understand how to apply wiki to the classroom. to have my future classroom to use the flowcharts to help them learn the steps of a concept.

Thing 12: More to Google

There were so many different tools that google has , which is not limited to just searching a site. The first tool I explored was google calendar. This tool makes it convenient to see everything, and what particular days are event on. It was very simply to maneuve through placing events on the days that you wanted to place them, along with times of the events. This is a tool that can not only be used as a personal tool, but as an educator it can be used for keeping track of all the dates of meeting, classroom assignment dead lines or any other events that make it complicated to remember events and times.

Another tool that google has is called " translator. This device is great and unlike any other translating devices because it allows you to type the words that you want translated and while an individual does that on the other side it translate the words not as a whole but word from words so you can see what words means what. There is also a voice button that would allow you to hear it in both the untranslated and translated versions. This is a tool that can be used for developed of of the teacher who may not be familar with spanish or arabic and wants to give a child whose language is one of the following. This makes it easy to translate it to the child's language. This could also be used for the students purpose of knowing what a language means in other langauages. I think the students would love this tool,because its not as much of a effort as learning it another way.
