our daughter
2:31

2:34
when i was working i was working in the bank i remember
2:37
in a lady came into the bank with her three kids

2:44
in her three kids were really well behaved
2:47

4:22
well-qualified julia really hard
4:24
allowed me to develop the politics and areas that would be helpful things about
4:28
them
4:30
as much parsley said for example i do a lot of speech and debate
4:34
and so a lot of times all have to miss about a week of school because often try
4:37
to see a standard san antonio to go to the internet
4:41
and when i come back it's not sweat i can
4:44
making up and a couple of days resin public so if you missed the whole week
4:47
of school
4:48
it's really hard to get back because of the way com everything's organized
4:54
definitely i think you did when i do my work and how
4:58
mike boorda did met
5:00
know about this article problems will
5:05
can tell you that it
5:07
sometimes there's a lot more expected of you
5:10
yet you don't get to hide behind other people doing school work and you're not
5:15
able to cheat ever
5:17
you're really able to
5:20
your but mom chilean notes where you can keep what you can achieve
5:24
so she really expects more enduring you're really having to do more
5:28
engine what normal public school expecting
5:32
with homeschooling you can kind of
5:34
you can tailor detailed statisticians that's happened on second thoughts
5:39
as a bunch of other kids and having spent the same exact rate is the skits
5:43
so you can teach them whenever they need to learn so much time on specific
5:47
subjects
5:48
um... there's also not all that
5:50
peer pressure being almost for which
5:53
can be dead but it can't be really bad sometimes
5:57
they get more of a real-life experience
6:00
right there with all different ages at concept all day
6:03
calling it with kids just and
6:30
and i know that's not an astonishing whereas
6:33
she just country kindergarten
6:36
tech meeting family sounds cool then we just really likes the way they seem to
6:41
him on as a family that any of them
6:44
and the presence of surveillance in a very good friend
6:48
invented relationship with their parents
6:52
we're trained to really be careful with
6:55
and just what was going into her
6:58
my name do you know what she is being weird really limiting like t_v_ and do
7:02
you think they spent it doesn't flood a with people that have no limit
7:06
just sending you want for wanting to protect him
7:10
yahoo standing here
7:12
you just have no idea what she's been exposed to such a young age
7:16
i think that's right
7:19
i would poke school all the way i got out
7:23
and chris
7:24
experience a lot of the
7:25
is interesting environmentally experts a lot of things that most kitchener use
7:30
it's almost like it breeds in security
7:32
through the pier peer group and if you're if you're cooler popular good at
7:37
something then
7:38
that possibly come here again in the it
7:41
as you get older if you're not as good as somebody even on it
7:45
visual way
7:47
and so i think that whole
7:49
he requirement that breeds that insecurity and that we just recently
7:54
young people specially teenagers they
7:56
here just trying so hard to find themselves and
8:00
icons so thrill
8:02
eds though they still have grapple with
8:05

8:52
teach their children to grow in character in relationships as well as
8:56

9:02
in questions that i get as a homeschooling is what about the
9:06
socialization what about the friends and how do you feel about not being a part
9:10
of oppenheim such traditions that frenzy groups and i insist on my games in the
9:16

just tax and weapons lab have the same amount of interaction with people i
9:39
decided to my house also have the opportunity to build strong
9:44
relationships marwick people power in these different circles
9:50
i one of the things i noticed when i was at stake that yes eighty a few years ago
9:55

9:57
without really and a high school you know i would walk in and i would ask him
10:01

10:06
five years that ivanovapolina high school just novick naming megan and
10:10
ellen and going to the class to discuss every lesson really a lot of these kids
10:15

10:19
relationship with all of those people that clinton says that there really
10:25
long group of friends
10:26
you form a relationship went out and say that you have that same uh...
10:31
ability with home schooling to form a strong relationships widmer
10:36
that you are an absolute
10:48
scandal
10:58
homeschooling has proven to be an excellent method for many students have
11:02
reaps the benefits of this type of innovative education
11:06
their confidence and back on my state your name
11:09

11:12
in nashville and
11:22

11:23
some of the challenges of the house yet or through relationships
11:27
but what a that are set up one of their scenario where they feel sorry for
11:32
how to happen in your home
11:33

11:35
figured there

Top 10 Reasons to Use Technology in Education: iPad, Tablet, Comp

While there are some nay-sayers who bring up some negative effects of technology on education in the classrooms, mainly budgetary reasons, using new technologies is the future of the education system.
The following reasons should silence the nay-sayer and help them heed the wisdom from Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach,
"Teachers will not be replaced by technology, but teachers who don't use technology will be replaced by those who do.".

Teachers are finding that using different classroom technologies like tablet computers, digital video, iPods, and video games are great tools for helping students learn.

Kindle ereader nook
1. Students love it. Students love using new technologies in the classroom. Whether it be the "cool" factor or just a genuine interest in new technology, it allows teachers to vary activities of the day and engage students. There is no commandment for education that says,
"THOU SHALT NOT HAVE FUN"
Students spend hours using technology like computers and television when they get home from school--why not engage them through their favorite mediums?
2. It engages the Four Key Components to Learning. Click on the link to read how technology in education (specifically the iPod School Listening Center) engages the 4 key components to learning.
3. Professional Development. Using new technologies allow students to learn another skill set that will help them in the marketplace. How many jobs need basic computing skills let alone advanced computing skills? Any time a teacher can encourage students to learn through technology, they kill two birds with one stone.
The tech industry is only getting bigger--encourage your students to know and understand technology so they can be the tech leaders of the future!
With the power of the internet, knowing how to use a simple piece of technology can turn an aspiring singer into Justin Bieber (whose mom uploaded videos of him singing which led to his fame) and a hilarious prankster into YouTube Star EdBassmaster, who recently used an AmpliVox Sound Cruiser PA System in a video (that is approaching 1,000,000 views!). EdBassMaster "Look at This" Video with Sound Cruiser
4. Makes Life Easier for Teachers. Teachers have to juggle a variety of tasks outside of teaching including planning lessons, grading, meeting with parents, and some administrative work. Why not help yourself out and put objective tests online so that students can instantly see their grades instead of spending valuable time grading? 

5. It Improves Test Scores. A benefit of engaging students through technology and media is allowing them to work at their own pace and not be held back by students who learn at a slower rate. This can allow gifted students to progress several grades ahead of their peers over the course of a year. Another proof of improved test scores comes from reaching different learning styles through the use of technology. The use of electronic drilling in education can help students learn quickly and provide incentives like games for them to keep progressing. Nobody does this better than Khan Academy.
6. Helps Students with Low Attention Spans. Students with ADD or ADHD can be aided through the use of technology by mixing up the learning process with different methods and through providing them engaging activities to keep their interest. Technology is a favorite among teachers who teach in ESL classrooms or special education settings.
Even the best teachers can have their moments or topics when they are like Ben Stein in Ferris Bueller's Day Off or Charlie Brown's Teacher in the eyes of their students. Using technology keeps students awake and their attention level high. How hard is it for you to fall asleep while on the internet compared to hearing a lecture?
7. Learn from the Experts. With the an increasing amount of free resources available on the internet, you can engage your students with content from the smartest and best teachers in the world

AmpliVox Sound Systems manufactures and sells portable sound systems along with lecterns and podiums with built-in sound systems that are perfect for classrooms. The Pinnacle Multimedia Lectern and iPod Portable PA System are great products for school settings that have a variety of uses both indoor and outdoors.

This video applies for kindergarten, pre kindergarten, elementary school (first, second, third, fourth, fifth grades), junior high or middle school, high school and at the college/university level. These tips are great for reading help, grammar, math, science, nursing, computers, classroom management
