First of all, innovation is needed in education. There's simply no way that computers have been integrated into teaching quickly enough. As a start, I think pretty much all K-6 teachers should have blogs/websites so parents can keep track of what's going on in the classroom without digging through their kid's backpacks. And I'm all for using videogames like Brain Age to help kids learn. Heck, I say do whatever you have to do to get kids to learn with some enthusiasm. Even stuff like this.
Anyways, the main reason for this post is to share a few videos I found on TeacherTube. As expected with this sort of site, few of the videos are great but you have to love the spirit of everyone involved. Especially from Mrs. Burk!
The following video makes a great argument for having kids blog. (Blogs can be made private if that's a concern.)
Sorry I can't figure out how to get the videos to show up through the feed to those of you on Google Reader or the like.
