technologically Illiterate. Is it okay?

This is a very good post on the fischbowl website and addresses a very good subject. Is it okay to be technologically Illiterate? In my opinion i belive it is as students can learn with you on new technological things as well as learn other ways and methods of communications and other tools.

In the post it mentions pretty much no it is not okay as it mentions people should find alternative employment if they are not. However this is a good post to read for opinions and things of that nature.

FischBowl Feb 2007 post for Feb 15, 2009

In the post labeled Formula for Success for February of 2007, it list many different things that are neccesary for a good teacher to be successful. One of the things it mentioned was evaluating one's self. This is necessary in order to fix mistakes in the past.

Also it actually talked about the formula for memory and how to take that and make a success formula for teachers. There were many steps to this, to many to mention in this blog post but it was interesting as to how to take a mathematical formula and calculate teacher success.

How to better the podcasts

After listening to some of the podcasts done in EDM-310 last semester, I believe that there are a few ways to make them better. One of the main ways to better improve the podcasts is to go more in depth on the subject in which you are describing. Also when going more in detail, explain the subject where everyone can understand it.

Also another way is to make it more professional. In saying that I mean make it sound like you know exactly what you are talking about whether you do or not. Also let everyone speak on equal knowledge, meaning everything that is spoken upon is important to the conversation.
