Collections of Development Resources:

Hypermedia products are the great resources for teachers, parents, and students as well. As of today, we, all people, are depending on technology to discovery what we need in our lives or any information that we would like to know. Collections of development resources are great for the teacher to use. All teachers in the United States can share their concepts of method to use in the classroom and it would be useful for other teachers. Internet has many things include clip art, photos, fonts, animations, and many more for the teachers to use in the classroom that will be beneficial for the students who require a lot of visual aid. I would use in my classroom for behavior charts, worksheets, and idea of activities, and many more. Teacher's classroom is great site Teacher's classroomto get ideas for the classroom. 

Production Software:

Most schools have certain kind of software for the students to use. Star is one of examples; it is great for students to see which levels of reading they are.  The iPad and iPod have a lot of apps for teachers to download. This video provides a lot of links for the students to practice their skills include how to create your own animated videos. The students can practice on their weakness on the computer, iPad, or iPod. I could use many links and animated in the classroom for the students to learn any subjects. 

This video has a lot information about software that can be useful in the classroom. It is worth to watch.

Here is a video of how to use technology in education.

Introduce to Module 1

Word Processing Software

Word processing is a great beneficial in the classroom. It is one of the most common for teachers to use. It has a lot variety of template. To use word processing reduce a lot of time for teacher to provide in the classroom, included bookmark, lesson plans, letters to students and parents, schedule, assignment, and many more that relate to the classroom and education.

Spreadsheet Software

Spreadsheet is sort of complicated if you are new to it. It is very helpful for the teachers to use because you could add address, grades, math and many more to help teachers organize, which I think that is important.  Spreadsheet has many ways to organize with anything and include numerals. Teachers can use spreadsheet for math to help students who need visual aids. Visual aids are very significant to me.

Presentation Software

Presentation is the most useful in the classroom. It is easier to teacher to create and work with the students at the same time. It helps students to see and work through.  Presentation software can add image on the slides to help the students to see what teacher means. Teachers can insert many things included images, movies, charts, and many more for visual aids students.

Classroom Use

I like all three basic software. I think they all are extremely beneficial for me to use in the classroom. It is kind of difficult for me to choice the finest. If I have to, I would select word processing software because it has many templates for me to create in the classroom. Being a deaf person, I know how important to have visual aids in the classroom. I would be able to use word processing to provide that. From what I have seen, word processing will give me the ability to help students to comprehension the concept of what I am teaching. It is not just benefit for me, but it is for the students and parents as well.
