ALEX
ALEX is a great website for teachers and students. It would really be helpful to any new teacher just beginning their career. I would definitely use ALEX in my classroom and personally on my own. this website gives so much that teachers can use. there are helpful lesson plans for any subject that you are teaching and it brings up any kind of lesson plan you can imagine. It also gives students or teachers a great example of any specific class you would like to know more about.
For students it is also a great tool. I would definitely use this website and have it available in my classroom. I would let the students browse the site at age appropriate levels and get more information on things they have questions on. It would give them a chance to try and find the answers to questions they may have or to just browse. This site gives you, as a teacher, and as a student, great tools to use if needed. It also allows you to browse other sites and search for more information.

Fish Bowl
I thought that this movie was very interesting. It shows just how far we have come in the technology world today. It is very interesting that the largest English speaking country will be China. That is very interesting in deed. I can see, in my own home, how much the internet and the computer effect children today. I have a 6 year old son and he can come in the office and get right on the computer and knows how to get to his page where he can play educational games and look at kids stuff. It really surprised me but it is comforting that they are teaching this in the schools.
