Reflections Class Session #2

Inspiration was introduced as another advantageous technology that can be utilized for instruction. This technology allows for visual learning of concepts and ideas by means of images represented graphically. I will utilize this technology in both of my disciplines of language arts and science. Inspiration will provide a more effective means to show relationships and interrelatedness of topics. This tool will be beneficial in teaching cause and effect relationships within stories, independent and dependent variables, and chemical bonding of atoms. Students will also engage in constructing their own semantic maps resulting in using technology as a mindtool. The implementation if Inspiration into learning is a great way to engage students and provide them with visual representations of their knowledge.
