Techno-School
By Kaitlyn and Spencer
Have you ever gone blogging? If you haven’t, a blog is a program where you can post articles about anything! After you posted an article, you may receive comments from people around he world. Also on the blog, it tells you how many people have visited the blog with a Culstr map. The bigger the dots, the more people have visited the blog. When you post an article, it has to be approved by our teacher. On this new blog, we can make podcasts or slideshows. The blog can translate in to different languages. French, Italian, German, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and Russian.
Our class has two blogs. This one is only for our class. The newer one, www.classblogmeister.com, is for anyone wants to do it. This blog let’s students access their homework. We can also visit cool sites and look at photos. If you would like to know what a day in 4K is like, it will tell you on the blog! With our blog we can see our previous writing form before. Our class has a newsletter and posted on the blog regularly.
These blogs have a lot of similarities and differences like the new one is more “high-Tec” and this one is more “old school”. On the newest one articles ore optional, you can write about mostly anything, but the other one is more school related with our homework assignments and A Day in 4K.On the classblogmeister you kind of have your own file and on this one it is for the whole class. Classblogmeister articles have to be checked online by our teacher and this blog it has to be checked at school.
The blogs aren’t the only technology that we use. At the beginning of the year we star a program called Type To Learn it improves our typing skills and sees how fast and how well we type, the higher the score, the faster we complete the level. We have to complete 15 levels in order to pass. Our class has 11 computers, 1 laptop, and 1 computer and laptop for the teacher. The 11 computers re used for typing and games when we have indoor recess. We can’t wait until we do technology in 4K!
