Hi and Welcome to My Education Blog

Hello everyone,
I finally got my blog site going. I'm a music teacher in the Jersey City Public Schools and have been in public education for 25 years. I've been reading a lot of your blogs. We have a very diverse group. I'm glad we met face to face first. Dr. Luongo has been very instrumental in helping me get things going. Thank you Dr. Luongo. Blogging is new to me and many people I know. I can't wait to show them how to do it and start their own blogs. Everyone is interested in learning. Since I only teach very young children, I don't think I will be using blogs for school, but it has opened my eyes to other possibilities, such as i-pods and other computer software. My students range from age 3-7. If you have any other suggestions, please let me know. Thanks.

Change is good

The world of education and technology is definitely changing the way we teach. As technology continues to advance, so does the education world. The students of today live in a fast and immediate world of communication. It is literally at their fingertips. It is a craze that has engulfed the youth of today. Teachers need to realize the importance of keeping their students actively engaged in their world. Yes, the world has changed and we have to change with it. It is an ongoing change that has exploded and is unavoidable. Change is good, but difficult to some. Where will technology bring us in our lifetime, teachers? Where will it bring our students in their lifetime? Only time will tell!
