Tech Task #7 - Podcast Review!

 


Podcast - Playing with Research in Health and Physical Education 

Episode - #20 Social media as professional development with Dr. Doug Gleddie 

I absolutely was thrilled to listen to this podcast and how important and why it's important to implement social media and use social media for professional development. This podcast came out in January 2019 so it was well before the corona virus pandemic but I feel it is now more relevant then ever. 

Now many people use social media to enhance their professional development. Mainly because it is the only way to do it during this global pandemic. I was particularly intrigued on how the guest Dr. Doug Gleddie is a professor at the University of Alberta here in Canada and they focused on how Joey Feith does it. (See my tech task regarding him). 

Anyone interested in Physical Education and social media should most definitely check out this podcast! 

10/10 from me!

I thought I would take a creative spin at this weeks blog and interview a fellow education student on his thoughts on this new school.  I interviewed Joshua Ferguson to get his thoughts on Manitoba's new educational endeavour.  A = Mr. Asham...

 As a physical educator, I LOVE this resource. Joey Feith has consistent uploads, themed uploads, and grade appropriate uploads.  The resource is the YouTube channel Joey Feith - The Physical Educator.  This resource is a great place to watch detailed Low Organised Games with visuals that describe the game perfectly. You can use this individually or you can show your class the video explaining the game to save confusion.  Check it out fellow Physical Educators!  ----------------->    The Physical Educator

 On Monday our class had the privilege of hosting Kirsten Thompson the ICT Coordinator at Mountain View School Division.  I really enjoyed being able to have her virtually speak to us about her experiences using technology and social media within her past classrooms and now as her job as ICT Coordinator and how she implements it within the entire school division.  After Kirsten Thompson shared her wealth of knowledge on implementing her techniques we shifted our focus of topic onto how we as teachers were going to implement technology into our future classrooms. She had us ask ourselves, what is our "niche"?. What can I as a teacher bring to the table that nobody else can? Or that limited others can? Or that can't be replaced by technology?  What is my "Niche"? I believe I have a number of things that I can bring to a classroom that can't be replaced. I have experience playing professional sports which not many people can say that they have done. As a physic...
