PART C - Implementation

Below is my podcast describing what it was like implementing my new program teaching geography using the smartboard, and not the book. Take a listen!

  1. Tom,
    Your blog looks great and the audio mp3 posting using podbean works really well.
    You used a great data visualization tool with the students in your implementation.
    I have found the same motion sickness that you felt - so moving a bit slower is a good idea. This certainly brings learning about geography to life.
    Using measure tool is neat - and it would be neat to compare that measurement to how far away is Hawaii? Alaska? Disney World? Your relatives? To help them begin to get a feel for distances.
