Involve me and I learn

"Tell me and I forget. Show me and I may remember. 

Involve me and I learn" 

-Benjamin Franklin 

Heres to starting a new education class!!!! This class is unlike the rest. We are using technology in class to help ourselves as teachers. This is so helpful to learn so we can use this in our future classrooms. This is exciting! Many teachers lack the use of technology. We want to engage our students in a way that speaks to them. Students are constantly on devices and know how to use them very well... I have had elementary students fix problems I was having on computers or guiding through programs, it was amazing!

Getting students directly involved with their learning by personalizing it and making it relatable to real-life situations with help to educate them more and get them interested in the topics. Students try to tell us what works best for them but many teachers just ignore the students. We want to encourage our students!  

This video is really interesting. It shows how we can take an engaged learning environment and transition it into an empowered environment by inspiring possibilities. 

I can't want to learn how to incorporate an empowered lesson into the science curriculum. 

Its okay to be a different teacher than the type of teacher everyone else is. You want to be different so your students are learning in a new and interactive way that best fits them as learners.
