Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Thing 3

After taking sometime to explore other people's education blogs I have found that there are so many more uses for blogs then I was previously aware. So many of these blogs were used for various purposes other than your basic homework/organizational classroom tools. I even looked at some there were almost a lesson/activity in their own right. I found one teacher off the blog list that was in the process of having this classroom Skype with another teacher across the country for a joint class session. This was amazing. I think back to how excited I used to get at the thought of a pen pal letter in elementary school, what about a lesson and collaborative working with a student who lives across the country or perhaps the world.




When I look at other people's blogs I start to realize the endless possibilities that are out there for putting technology into my classroom
