Week 10 Discussion Activities - Reflection
This was a very interesting topic. I spent so much time exploring the various links my classmates provided and the ones that I found that I had to force myself away to continue posting responses to my colleagues. I feel that learning objects are going to be used more and more in the future.
While learning objects are great, I feel that more pedagogical strategies need to be developed that will help teachers employ them appropriately in a lesson. I would also hope that as they are developed, there are standards that help guide their creation and deployment.
I was surprised that some of them were available at a cost. However there are still many good ones that were free.
I am going to explore how to create them to align with the work that I do, teacher preparation.

Marilyn,
I found the discussion of learning objects very interesting too. I see many uses for learning objects as they are small enough to provide individualized content, but can be grouped to provide more intense concentration.

Hi Marilyn:
As you work in teacher prep--what technology skills do you require? I teach a graduate course in computer technology and require word, excel, powerpoint, etc. What exactly do you require? I also make them learn HyperStudio. They hate it but it gives them a view other than Microsoft. Dianne
