I personally believe when using images and audio-visuals in a class environment, helps to get the story or aspect across to the students. As everybody learns differently some students may need visuals but some might understand with just vocals. Also when posting on web 2.0 platforms, people will like and share my pictures, videos and posts so this will help my work get noticed by others and also my students get noticed to.

Task 3a: Current Networks What are the current and different ways (tools) that you have, or do, engage your professional network? A main professional network I have been using is social media such as Facebook, Twitter and blogs. As its now a much stronger form of networking to connect with people as now they have group pages forming in certain professions. For example I am in a group called "Dancers & Dance Teachers" "ISTD Dance teachers" and others. This is where members of the group can ask each other questions relating to dance and also to share ideas, music, lesson plans, talk about experiences you have had and be connected with other dance teachers. Also Job vacancies often get posted if a dance school is looking for a new teacher or some company is looking for dancers. These groups are really beneficial as I am always connected with up coming events and opportunities for me and my students.  What are the established (and different) ways that...

The Washington Post wrote an article about a kindergarten teacher "using theater and dance to teach math and it's working..." very interesting. Melissa Richardson a drama teacher was sent from the wolf trap institute to collaborate with kindergarten teacher, Carol Hunt to encourage students in her class using arts integration. The article talks and gives an  about how they incorporated arts into the classroom and the statistics of doing so compare to other students not having the experience from the wolf trap program.  For more information go to :  https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/teachers-are-using-theater-and-dance-to-teach-math--and-its-working/2016/02/22/61f8dc0c-d68b-11e5-b195-2e29a4e13425_story.html?utm_term=.c9a5c246457a I wanted to find out mor...

Overview of 1b   After reading through Reader 1 and focusing  on the 3 main topics of it reading in more depth as I feel like this helps me to understand and retain information better. It really made me think about how often and usefully I use Web 2.0 professionally. I have had Facebook, Instagram and Twitter accounts for a few years but all for my own personal use... I have always been careful as to what I posted on these sites as I now realized  how beneficial but also harmful sites are. So recently I have set up a profession Facebook and Instagram account for my teaching to keep my professional and personal life away from each other. When posting on my teaching accounts, I have to think of ethical considerations whilst using the web. I have to consider “what I a say, participate in and discuss with others on the web it is important considerations for professionals.” (BAPP, Reader 1, 2016/2017) So when using Facebook and other web 2.0 sources that provide m...
