ALEX
Alex is a very colorful and very educational site ">click here. It gives you eight links on the following: courses of study, web links, lesson plans, search, personal workspace, professional learning, podcasting treasure, and Help. Each one gives a teacher some great informational strategies to use within there classroom to help increase learning. It can be a very resourceful tool when writing lesson plans.
While researching I came across the Alabama Department of Education Leadership & Education. Within this site there mission is to provide advice for the development of a seamless system of professional development for Alabama instructional leaders. Leaders are to promote the mission of enhancing school leadership. These two sites are great to use as a teacher to help your students.
ACCESS
Access was a new site that I visited that was used for high school students. The goal of ACCESS is to continue to meet objectives of the access plan,expanding the availability of Access Distance Learning to all public high schools in the state, It gives equal opportunities for high school students and gives students great programs. The future of ACCESS is to provide a 21st century distance learning classroom for every Alabama High Schools. They offer training to certified teachers to become e-teachers.
The site has a list of courses available within ACCESS. ACCESS was launched on November 1, 2004. The distance education intake was the culmination of research and planning by Governor Bob Riley. They have different support centers through out the state to assist. This site is great for all high school students to explore to gain information and extra practice.

Comments4kids week 8
Well I really enjoyed this comment4kids it was about organisation. I think being organize is very important especially when doing school work. Because you never want to lose that important paper or key notes for a study guide. Especially in writing papers because you never want to run things together that would confuse you. Sometimes I really confuse myself with my handwriting.
Comments4kids week 7
Well in week 7 for comment for kids I met Shampaine. He recently celebrated his birthday and received a lot of nice presents I must say. Hopefully on March 21 I receive some nice gifts also.

Blog Post Assignment 8
Randy Pausch's Last Lecture
Great man, I think it's great how this man has done this lecture with his health issue at the intensity he did it. He is dealing with a serious health problem but he has no signs of depression. In his lesson he spoke about: his childhood dreams, enabling the dreams of others,and lesson learned: how you can achieve your dreams or enable your dreams of others. I agree with him when he stated if your screwing up and no one corrects you then they have given up on you. I like how he mention his dreams then went through and gave a discussion of them. To have your boyhood idol meet you has to be a pretty nice experience. His example with brick walls was awesome he stated how they let us know how badly we want things and how if we want to achieve them were willing to fight through the bricks.
Pausch was a great person to listen to he speaks his mind and kept his crowd entertained. This man followed his dreams went and did things most people actually just dream on doing. He actually took the time out as a professor to help each kid reach dreams. He described how his assignment of 50 students was so great that parents and roommates were stopping by to see the experience. The cartoon was very cute and how it didn't want to end even after she took after the headset. To have kids lined up outside to view something educational was awesome feeling.
He created programs at his university to help serve other university's. With each and everything he did he put his all into it, I would love to visit Pixar. To actually have companies guaranteeing jobs to your graduates speakes volumes to what they have done at the university. I agree having someone who is self reflective is a plus and how millions have fun learning something hard. In his last lecture you can tell how he wanted to just give thanks to everyone he was involved with.
I think the things he did as a teacher speaks volumes of him as a person. I feel like within just this one hour of video you see how gifted he was and how his goal was to succeed in life. If we had a lot more teachers to motivate and put the amount of effort into there work. Education would be so much better to actually view it bigger than just a paying job but as a way to motivate others. He mention how was like tigger because he was dying but still happy and always having fun. I think this assignment was incredible because no matter what a person is going through he still found time to reach out to millions of people. In his video he showed me how even though he was dying he wanted to give thanks to everyone that inspired him. I encourage each and everyone to take out sometime to at least listen to half of this video very inspiring. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ji5_MqicxSo
