Think Aloud


Think aloud easter eggs from Danny Ri

ISTE-NETS Standard

1.  Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning and Creativity Teachers use their knowledge of subject matter,
teaching and learning, and technology to facilitate experiences that advance student learning, creativity, and innovation in both face-to-face and virtual environments.

Sumary

Think Aloud is an unique tool that can help to show students step by step ways to do something in their everyday lives. If I were to show my students what exactly they needed to do for an online or computer-related project using the tools I used to make the video, it would save time and engage the students. Also, I think that using technology like that impresses and amazes students to an extent. When you make children think something is "cool", they like to be involved in the it-factor. I am glad I found this tool so that I can better my teaching strategies for the future of America. If there is a way to better teach, I think we should be involved in it, and I thoroughly believe this is one of those tools.

The "Txthing" and Language

Who determines which words are used in txting? Can it be really used in schools to foster reading and writing?
