Week 4 Wimba Session 3 - Joseph Andrieux

Part I
After listening to Week 4's Wimba Session, I am overwhelmed with the amount of work that needs to be completed. It has been stated that the Action Research Website must be completed by Sunday night and it will be reviewed on Monday morning.

This year has been tremendous for me. I have been able to utilize what I have learned and implement strategies and ideas in a classroom filled with urban high school students. Teaching Algbera II, Geometry, and Trigonometry is a challenge. Looking for ways to maintain the students focus when they are in a classroom of 36 students is challenging.  I am glad to say that technology has worked and allowed me to motiviate students into coming back for more, but them into completing their assignments faithfully.

Part II
The presenters for Tuesday evening were Jodi Zeigler, Lori Pickering, and Lori Irwin. With Lori beginning her presentation, she was able to present her thoughts and ideas with confidence. She discussed her thought process behind the publishing of her action research and how should be a success in it being published in next month's magazine.

With what everyone's doing in completing their assignment, It is very exciting to be able to produce concrete evidence of an idea that was put into place in making a difference in young student's minds.
