There are mistakes that an editor and as the writer can make while critiquing and taking critcism from their peers. Most peer reviews are with partners. As a editor be carefully not to be picky about how you would like to see the paper instead of what the actually writer wants the paper to say. Providing meaningful feedback does not just mean telling the writer that he or she did something wrong. As a peer editor you should provide the writer with corrections and examples of what can make their paper or work better. Even the writer whose paper is being edited by their peer plays a role in the editing process. Their role is to be interested in what going on and not have an attitude or not care what the editor is saying. A Meaningful feedback include both the editor and the writer not just the editor.

There are many ways to provide meaningful feedback to your peers. One of the best way to give meaningful feedback is to give the writer compliments of what the writer did well on, tell the writer what you like about their paper. Making suggestion to the the writer about their paper if also helpful. When giving a writer feedback the editor should not just tell the writer what he or she did wrong, but the editor should give corrections. Even when giving correction the editor should stay positive. When making suggestions the editor should include examples such as; word choice, organization, sentence structure, the topic, details, and so on.When providing feedback the editor should be very specific by letting the writer know what they have made a mistake on.

Mr. Dancealot
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1k8aeDUC9XQ
While watching Mr. Dancealot I found the central message to be that in order for students to learn, as a teacher you can not just teach from a book. Students can learn more when they practice and are engaged in the lesson. The author makes the case for this conclusion by showing the end results of how the students were un-able to preform the dances due to the lack of practice and interaction while in class. I agree with his conclusion that if you do not engage students in a lesson or interact with students in a lesson, when it is time to perform the actual task the students will not be able to do so effectively.

Teaching in the 21st Century

- A teacher's role in the life of students
- Information can be found anywhere
- Anywhere
- On anything
- Anytime
- There are no limits to the amount of information
- Teacher are no longer the main source of Knowledge
- We are filters
- Teachers show students how to use other sources such as Google, blogs, Wikipedia, Youtube and more
- When creating a lesson
- Be Relevant, Engaging, and Challenging
- Students do not need to be entertained but instead engaged
My feeling towards the changes in teaching that Robert points out is how teaching is changing for the better. There are many different new ways of teaching being created everyday, and it gives teacher more back ground and more sources to explore about learning. The changes in teaching will affect educator in a way that is helpful to students. As a future educator the changes in technology in the schools will help to improve our knowledge as educators on learning the the different ways we can engage students in learning.
The Networked Student
My reaction to the this video is yes in the 21st century student will probably end up doing such thing that where presented in the video. However, there is still a need for a teacher. Like the video states the teacher is there to help the student to first understand what he or she is doing. The teacher is there to show the student the correct and proper way of doing his blogs, to address others experts, and manage his work, and to show the student how to tell the difference between good and bad information.
Harness Your Students' Digital Smarts
http://www.edutopia.org/digital-generation-teachers-vicki-davis-video
The thesis in the video Harness Your Students' Digital Smarts is to empower students with learning. The teacher makes a comment saying " not all student can learn from paper and pencil." I find this to be true. Students learn in different ways, and that teacher do not always know everything sometimes it is okay for the student to teach the teacher in some cases. The teacher makes a good point by show how students can learn more with communicating with other students around the world.
Who's Ahead in the Learning Race
http://vimeo.com/86432548
The answer to the title of the video, Who's Ahead in the Learning Race would be elementary students. By watching the video Dr. Strange made, he compared elementary students to grad and undergrad students in college. Elementary students where able to do more technology than college students. The elementary students had just got brand new MacBooks two days ago and were able to work with the MacBooks doing different types of projects. The students were using blogs, making I-videos, and many more. Speaking as a undergrad I just got my first MacBook and I am still learning how to use it. As future educators we need to catch up with the technology in the 21st century. Students in elementary school already know more about technology than there future teachers.
Flipping the Classroom
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KWqw_7Ib1o
Flipping the classroom is very new to me. Before this video I had never heard of flipping the classroom. Taking this approach seem very affective in the learning process. Having student look at the material before the actual lesson is taught will make the lesson more informative. Student would already have somewhat of a knowledge of what the teacher will discuss in class, the student can come prepared with questions and a ideal of the topic, the students would most likely be more interested in what the teacher is teaching since they have already taken a look at the material.

Blog Post #1
Coming into EDM 310 I must say that I am nervous. Heading into EDM 310 I have heard from many about the enormous work load. The work load, working with computers, and the different assignments make me very nervous. I just received my first Macbook and is hard trying to learn it which doesn't help. My major fear is falling behind in my class work and doing the computer assignment such as making videos. I'm not really a computer person, I only know how to do the basics. I have not ran across any other classes that can compare to this class other than Art class in which we did class online forums. The most difficult part of this class I think will be writing because it takes me a while to think about stuff when I write and also staying on top of my work. I try my best to stay organized I actually like being organized but it will still be something I will have to stay on top and work on this semester. The questions that I will have the most of in this class probably won't start until we get more detailed into the work load, but I know a hand load if not more will be on how do I do something on my laptop.

Hi, I'm Shernell Mabien. Iam the youngest of three, I have a Brother who is 27, and a sister who is 24. I grew up in Satsuma Alabama which is just a few minutes north of Mobile. I just became an auntie on November 11, 2014 to a little girl named Madison. I am the mother to a puppy Payton who is 4 years old. I attend school in Mobile. While in middle school which started from 4th grade to 8th grade I got braces my 4th grade year and had them for nine years. I miss having them very much! In high school I was in the band and I played the flute and piccolo, which is a smaller version of a flute. I really enjoyed being in the band because besides playing at football games we also marched in parades during Mardi Gras. My major here at South is Elementary Education.
My favorite thing to do is go shopping. Shopping is like a way for me to relax and chill. I love dressing up for a nice relaxing day of shopping at different malls. Destin Florida is one of my favorite because it's so peaceful and I love the view of the water. I never really shop by myself I go shopping with my mother because it a way for us to bond, however ever so often I will shop by myself.
My passion are kids. I have worked in many summer programs with children, I babysit a six year old, and I tutor. Being around children being me joy. I also have a very strong passion in math. Math is my favorite subject I love the challenge of solving different math problems. My passion of arts and craft is a passion and a hobby. Doing arts and craft is my get away from everything.
I choose to enter the field of education but even when I was younger I wanted to be a teacher, but also because I feel like the learning of a children start not only at home but in the classroom. Teachers can play a major role in influencing students. I know my kindergarden teacher played a major role in the reason why I want to be a teacher. The responsibility of teacher or not only to teach and help make students a better person, but we should be a good role model for your students. A educators work in the 21st century is much different from when I was in elementary school. With all of the different ties of technology educators have to know how to work smart board and other new technology that is now being used in school.
