Observing Technology in the Classroom

We learn so much about all of the different types of technology that can be used in the classroom but after observing a few weeks I did not see any of the technology that we had talked about in class. After learning about creating movies using imovie in class last week it was interesting and exciting to see this technology being used in a classroom I observed. In this particular class I observed made habitat movies. They had pictures and a few words on the video with their voice recording telling about their animal and the habitat it lives in and the adaptations it made to live in the specific habitat. The videos were really well done and they seemed to learn a lot from making their own video and watching their classmates, because when they were quizzed about their content they really knew the information.

What was the neatest thing for me to see was there was a student in the class that had a few disabilities. I thought it was so neat how well his project was done. Using this technology of making a video really seemed to suit his learning style and the limitations he had. Now I can see how important technology can be for students like him, he could present what he learned in a technological fashion allowing him to learn and do the same projects as his classmates. I also took this as an important lesson for having lots of assessment and teaching methods to reach all types of learners. After watching this lesson and learning about making movies in class this week, I am starting to think that maybe implementing technology in the classroom might be more doable then I thought.

Hi Megan,

I'm glad you've had an opportunity to see a real benefit in technology as a tool for learning! I think you're absolutely correct, technology can be a tremendous vehicle for students with varying disabilities-- My former students, who were labeled learning disabled, reveled in the engaged learning that using technology promoted.

You mentioned that "I am starting to think that maybe implementing technology in the classroom might be more doable then I thought." What caused your original doubts?

Best,
Lani

Learning about these techniques seemed complex to me and I was worried about teaching them to students. I was nervous that I would have trouble explaining to them how to use the tools. Also I was concerned with the students feeling that the technology is too complex for them. But learning that these tools are easier to use then I thought and seeing teachers actually use them gives me more confidence to implement these tools.

Hi Megan,

I think you'll find too that depending on the age of your students, they will be happy to teach you and help others.

You might be interested in the videos (elementary, middle, high) at this link illustrating wonderful lessons in which technology has been infused.

Best,
Lani

[url=http://www.internetmosque.net ] audio Explanation of the English only Quran (for the first time on the internet) [/url]


Who is Allah?

-------------

It is a known fact that every language has one or more terms that are used in reference to God and sometimes to lesser deities. This is not the case with Allah. Allah is the personal name of the One true God. Nothing else can be called Allah. The term has no plural or gender. This shows its uniqueness when compared with the word god which can be made plural, gods, or feminine, goddess. It is interesting to notice that Allah is the personal name of God in Aramaic, the language of Jesus and a sister language of Arabic.

The One true God is a reflection of the unique concept that Islam associates with God. To a Muslim, Allah is the Almighty, Creator and Sustainers of the universe, Who is similar to nothing and nothing is comparable to Him. The Prophet Muhammad was asked by his contemporaries about Allah; the answer came directly from God Himself in the form of a short chapter of the Quran, which is considered the essence of the unity or the motto of monotheism. This is chapter 112 which reads:

"In the name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate.
Say (O Muhammad) He is God the One God, the Everlasting Refuge, who has not begotten, nor has been begotten, and equal to Him is not anyone."

Some non-Muslims allege that God in Islam is a stern and cruel God who demands to be obeyed fully. He is not loving and kind. Nothing can be farther from truth than this allegation. It is enough to know that, with the exception of one, each of the 114 chapters of the Quran begins with the verse: "In the name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate." In one of the sayings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) we are told that "God is more loving and kinder than a mother to her dear child."

But God is also Just. Hence evildoers and sinners must have their share of punishment and the virtuous, His bounties and favours. Actually God's attribute of Mercy has full manifestation in His attribute of Justice. People suffering throughout their lives for His sake and people oppressing and exploiting other people all their lives should not receive similar treatment from their Lord. Expecting similar treatment for them will amount to negating the very belief in the accountability of man in the Hereafter and thereby negating all the incentives for a moral and virtuous life in this world. The following Quran verses are very clear and straightforward in this respect:

"Verily, for the Righteous are gardens of Delight, in the Presence of their Lord. Shall We then treat the people of Faith like the people of Sin? What is the matter with you? How judge you?" (68:34-36)
