My Website

I added my website to my blog list. It can also be found here.

Internet Safety

Since the alternate activity was strongly recommended for health teachers that is what I did. I am getting a teaching health minor and want to do all that I can to get a job and this seems like a good thing to put on a resume. Although watching all the clips took a LONG time it was well worth it. I had a friend that was directly harmed because of something that started in a chatroom on the internet. I think it should be part of a schools cirriculum to show students these video clips.

This is a great video that a girl in tenth grade made about endoctyosis and exocytosis. She used whole songs while she showed pictures that she drew. At the end she gave credit to both songs.
I would be able to use the pictures that this girl drew in my classroom because since they are all part of a collection (all of endocytosis and exocytosis) I would be able to use up to 15 of her pictures and this presentation doesn't have more than 15 pictures.

This is a video I found on you tube of my highschool bowling team. They used a song that they did not site but they were close to following a 30 second rule. They actually used 40 seconds of the song and should have just used thirty seconds. It also says that ten percent of the work can be used and still abide by copyright laws. It is very possible that the part of the song was only ten percent of the whole song. I think that they probably should have credited the song at the end though.

I have subscribed to The Biology Corner, http://www.biologycorner.com/feed/ , it is a great blog because it contains useful tips and tricks for teaching various biology topics.

I also subscribed to Science Literature-Teaching goals for Advanced Placement Biology, http://www.arn.org/blogs.php. Seeing that I want to teach biology in high school I would love to teach the AP class. This blog gives lots of good insights into what it is like teaching an AP class.

The third blog that I subscribed to is Transforming Life Science Education, http://biologyteachers.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default . This blog would also be good because if I end up teaching at the middle school level this has more basic information. This blog provides additional resources to science teachers.

The fourth blog is Blog U.: Ask the Administrator: What about Teaching High School..., http://www.insidehighered.com/rss/feed/ihe . This blog has so much information and gets input from hundreds of teachers. This blog has information on many topics that high school teachers cover.

I also subscribed to My Boring 286 Blog (which can be found on my blog list) and directed them to a blog that I found titled, Technology Tips for All Teachers, http://teachertechblog.com/feed/.
