Blog # 5

A topic that was brought up within Chapter 6 has also been brought up repeatedly in my Introduction to Eduation Class. Therefore, I am noting the defintion and keeping it in mind for my future career as a teacher. Facilitator Learning is a better learning process over dictating learning because it motivates students to want to learn, guides the student learning process, and promotes a learning atmosphere and an aprpeciation for the subject. Many teachers are beginning to incorporate facilitated learning rather than incorporating dictated methods because of the response of students.

The completion of the second powerpoint can help me immensely in my future education. I have learned how to create a game using the powerpoint technology. This can be beneficial within my classroom as a way to promote study habits through a review game, or to create a good time within the classroom. By using this technology, my students can become more engaged in the activity while having fun. This can allow the students to parallel education and fun times.

It is getting so cold in Tallahassee! I was raised at the beach my whole life, and the cold weather is getting so brutal. Jackets, socks, sweaters and don't forget the hot coffee and boots! I thought the hot weather was ridiculous but now I miss it!
