Technology in the next 50 years.
I think over the next 50 years technology will have grown way past our imagination. Technology is the most important factor in the world today. Fifty years from now who knows but just to give my personal oponion educationally i think teachers will be able to teach class from home and there will be a limited amount of students in classroom. There will be more kids being home schooled, as far as the business technology i think most or all businesses will be downsized an manpower will be a thing of the past, i also believe that cash will be a thing of the past as well as we are headed in that direction now. Personally i believe people will be more educated as the world transition into the future.

Reflections for Today
Today was again a very exciting learning experience. We began the day with a group presentation about observations and visits and there was some intresting points and facts each group brought forth. There was helpful information about the things we as Teach up interns should do prior to entering the schools, what to look for and how to incorpearate technology into the schools. Then the latter part of the day we learned about Movie Maker which includes images sound effects that i think would also be helpful in the schools as well. So again today was very funfilled learning experience. Looking forward to day three.

Training for day1
Today while attending the do trust training i learned a lot about the Teach Up program the role of a teach up Intern and how productive it can be in the schools and the community. The teach up program help teachers become more familiar with computers so they can interact better with students. I also learned how to create blogs which is another form of communication via Internet, skypes which is a web based application that allows users to use audio and video content to communicate* however the user has to to provide hardware to effectively use the application. The class is very informative with two great instructors an I'm looking forward to session 2.
