Reflection #8

My cooperating teacher showed me a great program called SynchronEYES. When the students are in the computer lab the teacher can see what each of the students are looking at with the main computer. The teacher can then write anonymous messages to each of the students that will show up on their computer. She doesn't even have to be in the same room as them for this to work. I think this is a great program because she can monitor what they are doing to make sure that they are on task.

Another thing this program does is send websites to their computers. When she is giving a lesson instead of all having them type in the website she can just send it to all of their computers. This is a great way to keep them on task and to save time.

I am sure that there are other great things that this program does, but I was really excited that technology has come this far.
