Le Book
I though Le Book was very funny!! I love how it was making fun of people now who ask simple questions about computers and the Internet. It reminded me of my mom a little bit. She had to create a webpage for the eighth grade at her school and every month she has to update it. I've shown her how to save a picture and insert it onto the webpage many times and every month she forgets and I have to show her again! To me and other people who are technology savvy think certain things are so easy but to others it really isn't.

I love this video just for that reason! I think of all the "veteran" teachers who would drag me into their rooms to help them turn on or off their computers!
ReplyDeleteI am glad you enjoyed.
This is so true Alyssa and I am probably old enough to be your mom! But - I am sure your mom can do alot of things other people cannot. I am pretty knowledgeable from a technology standpoint - but I refuse to learn some things - like downloading onto an ipon and things like that ...I make my kids to it for me so I don't have to. Maybe your mom has the same idea! It is true what Dr. Luongo said - it is so funny to see how veteran teachers respond to updating their web page - its almost like they don't want to learn something new - isn't that a contradiction to our profession.
ReplyDeleteThis is funny but true. I think since we are so technology based the people who aren't used to computers pose a lot of questions that may seem ridiculous to us. But it seems they are kind of forced to catch up.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I have to admit that although I can blog, upload images, and "tweet", I cannot use a sewing machine or poach an egg.
ReplyDeleteI am being serious here.:) Which skills are more important? Or, are they...?
LOL! I can't poach an egg either but my mom can so what does that say??
ReplyDeleteExactly!
ReplyDeleteYet, has she added a Bumper Sticker on Facebook?
;)
