We teach the content of subjects and then we need to know if what we taught was learnt. This means that we have to test. To help us to create our tests online and administer distance learning there is this website that can help.
Maybe this will help us to create more meaningful tests.http://www.questionmark.com/us/index.aspx - check out this website and see what I am blogging about.

NEW STRATEGIES FOR TEACHING AND LEARNING
http://www.caltrox.com/The traditional method of chalk and talk teaching has not been effective for sometime now. But what exactly do we as teachers try in its place? Maybe we are waiting too late to try alternative methods. We tend to try in the secondary school arena. We should perhaps start in preschool. CALTROX EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE has designed online games and other educational software that will help us. The games are interactive and this will help in the children themselves constructing their own knowledge which will make it more meaningful and for them learning will be fun. They will want to learn.
For more information on this revolutionary method of teaching preschoolers and beyond , do visit their website.

ROAD MARCH
I now have to concur with Heston. JW and Blaze seems to be going to take the Road March Title. I would not feel so disgusted if it was JW alone. Blaze I cannot stand.

This is for all the blogs that are following me and who I am following. Please ensure that we have all fulfilled the requirements. If you see somebody has not done it, donot keep it to yourself. Tell him/her. Remember that we are all here to help each other become better educators, we are not competing with each other. As Mrs. Wilson said, it is not one degree that they are giving out all of us have a chance to read for one.

Educational software - Measurements in Maths
http://www.teachersoftware.org/1st-grade-math/math-teacher-software-with-measuring-tools
The equipment placed in this piece of software package will help to teach measurements in mathematics easier as Mathematics is one of the areas where children are not doing too well in.
The interactive nature of this software will give a hands- on-approach to the learning of the material.
Also, as mathematics is a challenge for parents, this software can be purchased to be used by them at home. This will complete the learning triangle of school, home and child, which will be of greater benefit to all the parties concerned.

Educational software: Cluefinders
I LOVE SCIENCE deals with the entire science curriculum. It comes in the form of a fully interactive lab where the children learn through experimentation and experience.
These two pieces of educational software should be included in the resources available to teachers.
