New Insights and Their Implications

I have really enjoyed the technology presentations this semester. I particularly liked the mathematical explorer presentation. It was a completely new program to me which made me a little more interested in learning about it. It seemed very advanced in the mathematics that it could perform for you, but took awhile to type in all the information. I am sure that this is something that just come with time as you use it more and more. Watching the video on lesson study one was great. It allowed us to all see how the lesson worked out in the classroom. And it has become aware to me that you could have created a perfect lesson and still would of had a hard time teaching it on that day. All the distractions with halloween made it hard to reflect on how well the intruction was prepared. I am hoping to make some better conclusions from lesson study number two and number three. Hopefully it will be easier to observe the students perspective and their grasp on the material.
