Blog Post #10 - Khan Academy

-

 This Blog entry is about a tool of my choosing.

Link: https://www.khanacademy.org/


Description: 

Khan Academy is a well versed platform that provides teachers and people with interactive lessons in multiple different aspects. With K-12 lessons they help to educate anyone who goes through their site. 

Ease of Use:

For ease of use I will rank this a 8/10. The initial website has a lot of different areas to navigate but when reading about the site it seems relatively easy to use and is managed by a drop down menu. This is also a non-profit and they provide free education to anyone anywhere fueled by donations.

Versatility:

For versatility I would rate this a 10/10. This site has lessons K-12 on science, math, grammar, etc. The list goes on and on and has many areas of study included. 

Use it?:

I would rate this a 9/10. This is because it has a large variety of lessons that could easily be applied to my classroom no matter what grade I choose. I also like that they stand for education for everyone and they have a lot of impact on educating people everywhere under many circumstances. 

Conceptual Connection: 

This could connect to our TLC framework, T1 and T3, planning and instructing. Knowing standards can seeing lessons that can be implemented into teaching is a very beneficial practice. These lessons that are provided help teachers find new and creative ways to teach lessons.

 This blog entry is about a tool in Dr. Wang's PPT slide 2. Link:  https://www.gonoodle.com/ Description: GoNoodle is a platform that provides activities, such as brain breaks. This platform has guided videos that include dancing, singing, clapping, and interactive videos. This is very popular in younger grades and is used to transition and give some energy to the classroom.  Here is a link that has multiple channels located on the platform:  https://www.gonoodle.com/tags/6YlOrw/channels   Ease of Use: I give GoNoodle a 10/10 on ease of use. This is because the website is very organized in multiple ways. It has channels, subjects, routines, and different types of activities organized at the top of the site. It can also be trusted to be kid appropriate rather than youtube with little control in this aspect. Versatility: I give this a 7/10 for versatility. This is because it has many different types and channels of activity. that being said it doesn't quite appeal...

Link:  https://www.youtube.com/ Description:  Youtube is a platform created by Google that is used to make videos and as a social media platform. This is a platform where people can share videos that they created. As an educational tool, Youtube has many different formats of learning such as lecture, self-paced learning, visual aids, etc.  Here is a link to help teacher use Youtube effectively:  https://www.commonsense.org/education/articles/teachers-essential-guide-to-youtube Ease Of Use: I would give ease of use a 6/10 .

Because Youtube is created by many different users, it can often not completely fit the intended use. Due to the large amount of content on Youtube it can be hard to narrow down and choose a video that suits your classroom.  Versatility:  I will give versatility a 9/10 . ...
