Rubistar

1. Description of the assignment

We were given two articles and were asked to create a rubric on one of the articles.

2. Evaluation of the software you used

The software is awesome. It's all a matter of clicking your mouse and everything is written down for you. It is user friendly as well

3. How you plan to use this site into your future classroom?

This will be helpful when I give assignments to my students and have to come up with a rubric for that assignment. When I went back and took one prerequisite class, I realize that the instructor was not giving us no rubric and I felt lost. It is very important to have rubric for assignments that I give to my students.

4. How will this application enhance your assignment?

students will know the teacher's expectation or what is expected out of the assignment and it will also help student plan out how to do the work in an effective, timely manner. It always helps to have a tangible guideline to help them do the task.

Elluminate Live

. Description of the assignment

We were learning about how to teach students using the website or internet. Once we signed up, we take turns in pretending we are the teachers communicating with the students and giving them instructions on some classroom assignments

2. Evaluation of the software you used

Excellent. It is a very useful software, especially if you are not present to teach your materials to the students. It will be nice if students don't actually meet on this day in the classroom and find a way to go line to actually do the assignment in actual on Elluminate live. 

3. How you plan to use this site into your future classroom?

I seriously hope schools will find the funding to actually purchase the software and use it in the classroom. It will be nice to have it in the Junior High and High Schools.

4. How will this application enhance your assignment?

This will be convenient for those students who are absent or sick to do elluminate live, that way they actually don't miss any lesson. That is just my opinion.
