WebQuest	Strengths	Weaknesses
Grow School Greens	The idea that has been brought up is a grand idea. The organization of the webcast is written well. I like how they give you tips for every step.	I feel that she needs to go into more detail and explain to the students what exactly being done.
Where is My Hero?	The teacher described everything with detail and told them what the purpose was for the assignment.	She didn’t display an example of what the paper should look like. Sometimes examples help a students get a better idea of what they are doing.
Underground Railroad	The teacher tells them exactly what she wants from in their reenactment. The students will definitely understand the how different the roles are.	The idea just seemed too long. It’s a great idea but students sometimes lose interest when an assignment is extremely long.
Ice Cream	I found this one a great idea. The assignment seems like an idea that students will really find entertaining.	An assignment about Ice cream isn’t an idea that would be the best for students.
Ancient Egypt	The way the assignment is layed out seems like it would excite the children. The assignment looks very exciting and interesting.	Does not have many images.

 

 

Double Entry Journal #12

Quote- "Students understand that they need to have these skills in order to exist in this world, so they're way ahead of us. Most kids relate to each other through music or graphics. They are regularly bombarded with images and sound. Most of their awareness comes through the language of moving images and cinema. That's why it's so important that they learn the language of it."

Reaction-  Media is what the world revolves around these days. Media is a way of entertaining but it is also a way of learning. I know that every student I know usually focuses on what the media has to say. Instead of going against media , we should influence it. Yes media can sometimes be used for the bad but that doesnt mean has to be. Us as teachers need to teach the students how to use the language of media in a way for learning.

Double Entry Journal #11

In this article the argument is whether or not the law to ban sex offenders from social networking is right. The author argues that the new law is not supported with enough causes.He feels that the new law does not bring justice to the state of Illinois. He also argues that some accused "sex offenders" aren't actually rapists. In some cases there were small crimes committed that demanded them to register as sex offenders.

Some evidence that was given is information that states most registered sex offenders are registered for an unlikely crime. He also shows that the 8 out off 9934 cases of children being sexually abused are from social networks. The information given all shows that only a few cases are from social networks.

Yes we think of sex offender, more than likely we think of rapists. Like the article shows not all sex offenders are rapists. There are many things that could justify their crime. Yes we are always worrying about the children and their involvement with sex offenders. I understand the purpose of not allowing registered sex offenders not being allowed to have a social network. But I also think there are other solutions that could better resolve the problems of sexual abuse.
