Post #10

From reading back over my classmates' blogs, I found that most of us generally had the same idea and thoughts about the different projects we did and programs that we used. We all seemed to enjoy using hot potatoes, and everyone seemed to have a general knowledge of most of the Microsoft Office programs.

I would really like to learn more in Excell. I am currently taking a statistics class, and my professor is constantly telling us that we can use Excell to figure out the standard dievation, means, and other data simply by plugging in different formulas. As a math teacher I think that knowing how to do things like that would be useful.

My goal is to find ways in which I can introduce different medias into my class, so that the students have a greater appreciation for math and all of the different fields that use mathematics. I would like to be able to have the students watch the tv-show Numb3rs at least once because it does a great job of depicting mathematic subjects in a very entertaining way.
