I thought I would get ahead of things a bit last week when I had a little down time, but of course decided to just post about each assignment as it came due. That was a good idea until I forgot that the assignment was due last night.
When I first went to the crappy graphics website and explored a little, I was taken back by the graphs that some people had created. I guess I was expecting something a little more professional or educational. Some where funny though. Creating the graph was simple, deciding what I would make the graph about took a little thought though.
I thought that this site would be a great source for not only teaching kids about the graphs, but also to allow them to take what they have learned and create a graph themselves. My only concern would be that some of the graphs that can be seen on the site are not appropriate for the classroom. The more we get into this course the more I realize how much of this technology I can use in my classroom. I am going to start keeping a detailed list of all the technology we are using and any ideas I happen to come up with about how this technology can be used.
