Putting on a show

Sometimes I love technology and some times I want to hurl it at a wall.  However, there is no denying that when it works it can provide a great way to showcase student learning.  Recently, our Mid Prairie Middle school students have been learning how to introduce themselves in preparation for a classroom call with Cedarlane Academy in California and we used some class recorders to give then a look at what they really look like speaking Chinese.  It is a real eye opener for some students to see themselves on camera and it can be a great way to push some students to try a little harder or improve on their already great work.
