One website that I found very interesting and that would be useful as as future teacher is National Geographic for Kids.
http://kids.nationalgeographic.com/
This website is very informative and makes learning fun and interactive. On this site children can do activities, play games, watch videos, read stories, and so much more. This makes learning different and interesting. It gets boring for a child, or anyone, to simply read facts from a book. Although when you are interactive in the learning it is much more engaging, and you do not even realize that it is an educational site. I find it to be a very good website because the children do not even realize that they are learning while they are surfing through the website.
For example as I was looking around through the site I came across a section that said "games". Kids are instantly attracted to games so I decided to click on it to see what it was all about. It had numerous games with catchy names that would reinforce material learned in science class.
The technology related skill that I would like to learn is how to create an good interactive website for my students. I know the basic skill for creating a website, but I am sure that there are many things that I can do in order to make it more interesting and user-friendly.
Ways that I will achieve my technology related goals when I enter the college of education. I am sure that there are many classes in which I will be required to create websites. And I believe that the best way to learn something is to actually do it. Therefore while doing future projects I will be perfecting a skill that will greatly help me as a teacher.
