Linking the Human Mind with Video Games
The human mind is always running. Just like a video game, there is always something going on in there. It very well acts and functions in similar ways. The mind is very creative, based on what is visualized and then simulated. Humans take these simulations and act upon them to establish goals.

We are of various colors, cultures, religions, beliefs, and values. To me, this creates a richness of family and endless possibilities. The art and craft of how… Continue

WebLog 2: New and Old Teaching
How we taught years ago definitely needs to change today. Of course some of our pedagogies will be that of our past, but a great deal needs to be incorporated with technology. The pedagogy, connectivity, multimodality, and interdisciplinarity of teachers and students are important issues within education today. After reading Luke, which was very wordy and lengthy, I was able to realize just how important our style of teaching affects students. The overwhelming amount of media culture is at times… Continue

Laptops in the Heights
Hi CHUH Colleagues,
Today was our first day of class, so what did you think? I wish our other colleagues could have joined us, but oh well. I'm looking forward to learning so much about our laptops. It will be great to share some of our experiences with our students.
