Day 2
There were a fews things that I liked about what I learned today. I never really thought about back channeling as a good thing. There defiantly is some educational applications using back channeling. I also really like poll everywhere, I could see that being very fun to use with the students. It goes back to the cell phone debate, they all have them, lets embrace that instead of pretending that things like texting during class does not happen. The tv streaming was pretty cool and I think could be very useful for students that are absent because they are sick or those that are on homebound. They can still be in class and see and hear all that is going on, but they are in the comfort of their own home.

I totally agree. I first thought, when we learned about it in the Fall, that it was horribly rude to backchannel. It's now nice to be introduced to good ways in which it can be used, especially in the classroom.
