New Technologies and New Technology Sites


I've been creating an online course a final for my Educational Technology Masters from National University. I am using a site called wwww.udutu.com . It is a beta site but one I find easy to use and is helping me understand even more so how to function in the online development world.

Technology is changing so rapidly and it's hard to keep up with but I'm so passionate about it and about the topic I would like to pursue--making African American History curriculum and learning modules on line. It is a love and a chore but one I welcome. I will put a link on here later for people to test ride my course to see how functional it is and how interesting.

Another site I am loving is www.creativebyline.com. This site is for writers or wanna be writers like me. The editors on this site, for a small fee, will edit your work before submission and even give you a list of publishers willing to publish your work after you submit your work for review.

I have submitted my story children's story, "How Colored People Got To Be Black," and am awaiting the results. I will keep you posted on www.twitter.com.

So much technology and so little time...................

Why can't our students learn and be entertained at the same time?

What in the World is the World Coming To?

As a matter of fact! Been thinking about what is happening in the world and wanted to share with you some of my concerns. Why am I being such a "Debbie Downer?" Because I believe that it is important that young people understand what is going on in the world and how they can make changes to it. "Ignorance is not bliss." If they are inheriting this world, they need to start thinking about their part in it and how they can make change to make a better world. Watch the videos below about some of the concerns I have. These are just a few but a good start. "Drinking and Driving Drunk"
