Wow that is all i can say! It is amazing how much technology has changed over the years. I was most impressed with the amount of years it took for computers to reach 50,000 people, compared to TV or radio. The video shows all kinds of stats, like how many college graduates form India speak English, 100%, that's amazing, college graduates in the U.S. definitely cant say they can all speak a foreign language. I think you should watch this video and pass it on, it will really show you how much technology, especillay the internet, has changed over the years.

ACCESS

Hola! If you go to the website http://accessdl.state.al.us/ you will find all the information you need for the Alabama Connecting Classroom, Educators and students statewide. This is a program designed to give high school students the chance to take AP class that they might not other wise have the opportunity to take. These classes are offered via Internet, with videoconferencing and uses all kinds of computer programs. This program will help upgrade computer labs to H. 323 standards, making them able to accommodate the ACCESS students. This program comes with pros and cons, some benefits are, expands the reach of education and, increase in student responsibility for eduction. Some of the cons are, no one-on-one contact between students and teachers, and teachers have to be able to use and understand all equipment and programs used for the course. However, the pros out weigh the cons because students are learning things they might not have ever learned and they are learning about computers at the same time.

I strongly agree with the ACCESS program, i think it gives students a chance to learn new things. In the world today everything revolves around computers, this program will help them learn about computers and how to use many of the programs on the computer. Courses like these are also helpful when it comes to preparing students for college, many universities offer online classes which some people find difficult, but with this program they will already have the knowledge and responsibility to know how to take an online class.

ALEX

Hey Everyone! I have recently looked at the website for ALEX, which stands for Alabama Learning Exchange. This website is very useful to teachers, it gives you all the state course of study standards that you have to teach your children for all grade levels and for every subject. You can also log in and crate your own lesson plans and it saves them for you, this is under the tab labeled personal workspace. You can also look at other peoples lesson plans and get ideas from them for your own classes. If you are ever looking for new and fun ways to teach you can find them here, by going under the professional learning tab. This tab will bring you to all kinds of resources. This website also gives links to all kinds of websites whether for students, teachers, or administrators. You look these sites up based on what you are trying to look up like art, English, foreign language,etc. Finally they have a search engine that you can use a keyword and it will search the ALEX database to see if they have any information pertaining to what you are looking for.

The ALEX website is great! It is great especially for teachers, it gives them a place to store lesson plans along with getting ideas for new ones. This website will help you answer tons of questions you have, because it has so many links to commonly used websites. It is also a big help because it is a quick way to look up all the state course of study standards, making sure you get everything completed for all the subject you teach. I highly recommend this website to other people, it will definitely come in handy. ttyl
