Thing #22

The three live binders I created are called Education-Resources, Educational Blogs, and English Education Webpages. It took me a while to figure out how to navigate the Livebinder website and add different tabs in my binders. I was very frustrated at one point and was ready to give up when I somehow managed to get multiple tabs. I am not sure how I did it, but whatever I clicked worked. I do see that this tool can be useful because it's like having all your binders in one place (online) and can access them anywhere. It is nice because it provides a way for people not to have to lug binders around with them like most students do. We all know how painful and annoying it can be to have to carry multiple binders for the day and this tool could potential save people the hassle of doing that. In my observations I have noticed that many of the students, even in the lower grades, have big binders full of stuff. It is evident that some struggle holding their binders do to weight and amount of papers they have. Plus, it would save a lot of paper! As a teacher I could keep online binders for each class period and won't have to worry about forgetting them someplace; whether I am at home or at school I would be able to access my binders. I think Livebinders has some serious potential to be useful in the classroom setting.

My binder titled "Education-Resources" contains an academic vocabulary document, common core standards reference, and the Teacher Vision website. I put these in it because they are going to be important to have as references when I become a teacher. They are tools and concepts I will need to know and integrate in my daily lesson plans and unit plans.
