So What?Digital stories don't really mean much to me as a teacher right now. I think that this takes a lot of time that I can be using to teach my students other things and keeping them active. We are doing this because we feel like we need to incorporate technology into everything these days. But as a pe teacher I am teaching my students the benefits of physical exercise and staying active. I think that knowing the copyright laws is extremely important but I don't have a clue as to why I am going to be using this in my PE class. Copyright is a big issue and means a lot to me as a student right now. It helps me to understand what is free to use and what is not. This technology means a little to me. I love that I am able to look up so much information on the web so that I know my rights and the rights and protection of others. To my colleagues it means that we are all being treated or hopefully treated equally when publishing our works and ideas on the web.
Now What? This means quite a bit for my future students so they know what they can and cant to and what is accepted. It doesn't really change my schema right now because I probably won't be using any of this in my future classes. It will make me more aware of rights and laws when it comes to internet use and research. I can give them a research paper assignment but thats really not what pe is really about to me. I hope to keep my students physically active and have them enjoy having a fit life. Having them know the importance and basic concepts of pe will be important but I dont see them creating anything more than a paper. This will only make me more aware of cheating and the copyright laws. This will make me a better colleague by making sure that my colleagues and I are following the right laws and that we are being fair to those that may have created lessons or that we give credit where the credit is due.
