ACCESS

"In November 2005, Gov. Bob Riley, as well as the Alabama Department of Education. launched ACCESS distance Learning as an exciting new method of delivering high-quality courses state wide, including areas where there might not have been available before." ACCESS provides opportunities for Alabama public School students to learn in AP, elective and many more courses where they might not have had further access to.
The ACCESS program provides high-quality classroom courses,teachers, and technology. Te program uses much technology through video-cams as well as other resources to interact with the teachers as well as students interacting with other students about the classes. This program seems like it will really help benefit students who would like more challenging and more classes which they cant get. Through the ACCESS program there are also many resources available to teachers. ACCESS gives all sorts of web links for art counseling, lesson plans, technology, English, math ex. to teachers. This program benefits students as well as teachers.

Using (ALEX)

I already know that when i become a teacher i will definitely use the (ALEX) program. I recently took a class where i had to get on the website and get different lesson plans in math. The website is easy for me to use and it offers so much information.

When i begin to teach i will use the program mostly for lesson plans, although it offers much more. There are millions of lesson plans on every subject and just about every grade. Teachers may use the same lesson plans on the website and i may as well but it also gives teacher great ideas on lesson plans as well. I will also use the program to access the different websites that it offers, for example: the different subjects, grant opportunities, lesson plans ex. I am very excited about becoming a teacher and can't wait to actually be able to use this website!

(ALEX)

The Alabama Learning Exchange (ALEX) program/website seems very helpful to teachers. It is basically a program designed to help teachers get information about lesson plans, access to certain web links, and offers other many helpful resources. It has a lot of information that teachers can and probably and do use, i think it is espically helpful to newer teachers.
The website offers courses of study, web links, lesson plans, search, personal workspace, professional learning, distance learning, and help. The courses of study allows you to for example: to choose a subject and from that subject choose what title of the subject and then it gives you all kind of information about it as well as different lesson plans you can go to on the subject. The website also offers incredible links to websites that would be very helpful to teachers. The lesson plan link allows you to pick a subject and grade to access different lesson plans. This website offers so much information that will help teachers.

fisch bowl movie

I was actually a little bit shocked about the information i learned from the movie on fisch bowl. I do and did realize that technology is advancing everyday and that we have come very far in even the last five years. I did not realize that technology was increasing so rapidly. I was very shocked to learn this. I was also shocked to learn that some kids are in college for certain things that don't exist or that they are preparing for that may exist one day. Which that is a great idea but its scary to think that people are actually doing that. I learned a lot from this short movie and i think its information that others should know about to.
