Last week, we had two guest speakers in come to our ICT class. They came with different experiences and purposes for being in our class but both brought some good ideas that we can take with us to the classroom.
For example, we did a quick activity were the speaker recorded our voices all sharing some insight a person has passed on to us. He then took that recording, put music behind it and created an inspirational little clip. One way that this tool can be used in the classroom is by telling the students that at the end of the week, they will have to come up with one thing they learned or thought was interesting that they did in class that week. So all week, they will be thinking about what they are doing and figuring out what their one comment will be. Then on Friday, the teacher can record everyone saying their comment. The recording can then be put to music and shared at parent / teacher interviews or at an open house. If I could learn this method, I could see myself using it in my classroom.
