Newton is Amazing!

Probably one of the funniest portrayals of Newton's Law you will ever see!
Fun, and informative.

Video in the works

Carla and I will be making a fabulous film demonstrating Newton's first law. Carla had this great idea as she was watching While You Were Sleeping and saw a poor little newspaper boy totally biff it on his bike because of the ice on the road. We discussed the phenomenon and decided it would be a great way to demonstrate the idea of "an object in motion stays in motion". We are going to expand upon this idea by using other similar clips that portray the principles in Newton's first law. We're hoping to put it all to a beautiful song from the nutcracker. We think it will be great.

My experience in technology...or lack of

I don't feel like I am very technologically literate. I know that I have grown up in a technological world, and yet I feel a little out of touch with it. Until recently I have been afraid of the internet. I never had very good experiences trying to find the information that I needed. I always seemed to be led to something completely off topic and frankly I was frustrated with computers and technology. I have become a lot more familiar with computers lately and have found that they can be very helpful. In my classes growing up I have been introduced to many different programs. I even remember in Junior High that we had a tool that let us type by speaking into a headset. I am becoming more interested in technology and am excited to learn more about how to incorporate technology into my teaching. I want to feel more comfortable with modern technology.
