Howdy

Here is a link to a web page created using dreamweaver. The link has an example of SMART board software used in the O2 summer institute of 2007.

There is also some information on web 2.0.

Enjoy the show.

Favorite Event in Online Classes

Howdy

I would say I have several events.
  1. The students realized that nothing was locked and proceeded to do the whole course in a week.
  2. A student was on TV.
  3. The TV student was knocked out and had a recording of the event.
  4. I did an IVC session with my Mac High students.

There are more but I can't think of them right now.

What did I learn?

Howdy
I learned that I need a degree in programming to pull of some of my great ideas. I learned when someone is digging they need to call and check for cable connections since part of my material was in an area that was cut off due to a cable being cut. I can't think of anything else.

Virtual 2x4

Howdy

Every time I put something on the internet I often say "Howdy." It's not a powerful knock you out of your socks 2x4 but it is something that I am consistent with. You could say that I am a red neck from a backwater school. I grew up in a small town and went to a large university and earned a bachelors in aerospace engineering. So basically you could call me a rocket scientist and just like the cavemen on TV that get offended when they say Geico is so easy a caveman can do it, I take offense when people say it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to do a task. Actually I don’t take offense I have a little thinker skin then some caveman.
Getting back to my college days, while at college I was known as a small town boy and that image has stuck with me ever since. I was one of those people who graduated high school and swore to my self that I was never going to move back to that small town I had dreams of living in a much bigger city. So it seems ironic my nickname in college became the name of the town that I grew up in. People that I spent four years with in college thought my real name was Heppner not Jason. After graduating college I have moved a little bit but after a while I went back to school to become a teacher and my first permanent job as a teacher ends up being at the same school that I attended and I am teaching out of a classroom that I actually took classes in. So the irony of my life is very funny and when you graduate high school never say never.
