For my ILP #3 I did a Google PowerPoint. I think this is a great thing for teachers to use especially for lectures. The link below gives more details about what I did. https://voicethread.com/share/13331777/

I think Excel is great for teachers. It can easily help them to average grades, see if students are passing or failing, find out the minimum and maximum of grades and much more. I really like using Excel and I think it will be very useful when I become a teacher. Excel is great for many different things to do as a teacher. I really liked the topic on PowerPoints. I liked getting the different perspectives of everyone in class. I liked to read about what everyone liked about it and did not like.

The flipped classroom concept is when videos can replace lectures at home and then the students can come to class with things to talk about and questions that they have. I think this is a great way for students to learn. Students can watch these lectures at home and take notes. This helps them to prepare more for class the next day and ask questions on what they are confused about. The teachers do not have to lecture to the students and therefore, it gives them more time to answer questions and explain things that students did not understand.

This also helps schools that cannot afford technology to be able to get it. https://opensource.com/article/18/2/open-educational-resources-drive-teaching-renaissance I really liked how I could incorporate buttons onto my PowerPoint to ...

I did the ILP Participation Activity. I Read a LinkedIn Learning article on how to be a collaborative and influential leader using body language because this is super important as a teacher when giving lectures and standing in front of students and talking to them. Here is the link to my VoiceThread that gives more details! https://voicethread.com/myvoice/thread/13253926/80166626/74463518
