Blog # 7 - (Extra Credit)

In chapter 7, I learned what a technology conference is. It is a meeting that teachers can go to that provides information and resources about technology. I also learned what a Web evaluation rubric is. It is a "detailed scoring guide for assessing the value and content of Web sites. This is what we made in class for one of our assignments.

The Web Resource Evaluation assignment was really interesting because we were allowed to make up the questions to evaluate a web site. I mainly focused on whether or not the web site would be a reliable source of information. I did this because there are so many web sites out there that may seem like they have good information when in reality, the information is all wrong. This is not something a student or a teacher wants to use for assignments.

I have started applying for grad schools and it is a lot harder than I thought it would be. There are so many forms to fill out and so many papers I need to get ready. I'm actually getting a lot of things done but it is not fun. Wish me luck!
