Week 3

-->

This week in EDLD 5346 we were given some great examples of students who are leading the way in a new era.  Cameron was an amazing 11 year old.  I really enjoyed seeing his story.  Although I do not think he is an average student I do think that some of the things he is doing, such as video projects, can be very for other students.  The video was a great way to show educators what students are capable of.  Luis was also a great example but the thinks that Cameron was doing at his age just amazed me.

I also enjoyed the book building project.  The project had us create our own book using the websites tools.  I found this to be very exciting and addictive.  Once you start working on your own book you can get wrapped up in the vast array of options the site allows you to do.  I liked the sites many options such add text-to-speech and the ability to include a glossary of terms.  What made these features stand out to me was how easy they were to implement.  I can see this as a great tool for all educators.
