International

Helen Teague, is an International school teacher who was the first one at her school to dial up an internet connection. Through her knowledge about computers and software she was able to educate her principal and other teachers who were not yet familiar with internet connections. She developed her own trainings and named them OOPS: Our Overnight Planning System. She designed her website so that others could search and learn more about how to use “OOPS” in the classrooms to encourage success in the classroom. Her OOPS website appears with links such as a blog page.

Another international educator uses her blog web page to create highlights of how to complete web designs, how to do still photographs, and how to work a digital video. Many of the information that she has posted seems to have links to more resources that will allow one to gain knowledge about the particular subject matter. It appears that she is preparing her students for an upcoming event and is hoping that by providing them with basic knowledge about the subject matter they will be able to make comments and gain feedback about how to efficiently complete the task.

It seems that the international world are somewhat behind America with their knowledge about blogging. Some of the fault can probably be because of lack of resources. Others might say that many countries are not as advanced in technology in order to share knowledge with other countries. However, many of the differences are those that require much attention and have not been handled at this point.

Because American’s are said to have more “resources” than many other countries, they probably have more knowledge about technology and how it relates to every subject matter. Much of the resources that use in the classrooms are available at any time. We don’t have to go to the library anymore to obtain information. Therefore, online resources are a useful tool to have.
