I chose " From Compliance to Play " . My idea on this topic is that its about things that we now have and use in our everyday lives to help us comprehend easier. One example is technology. We use it everyday and it makes it a lot easier on us. We no longer have to do as much as we would of had to do if we lived back a couple decades. That is how I see this topic.

I agree to disagree. Sure technology has improved our lives to us, but it has ruined our full potential. We only have unlocked 10% of our brain and with all of this technology we have narrowed our brain down to about 7.5% statistically speaking.

I agree with all if the things that Aaron Chen is saying, but I chose "From Physical to Digital." I believe that we text way more than we need to. We need to start using our device for good. It's great that we have devices, for goodness sakes we don't have to use textbooks anymore, now we can just look up the textbook online. Stop looking at social media and pick up a book or look up a book. Also when you are digital be careful what you put out there because there is no real delete button on social media. In conclusion, that is why I chose "From Physical to Digital."

I am expounding 'From School To Community' because I fully agree with the concept. Exoctic experiences the students will learn will make them eager to learn. The social skills that will come from this will help students in their everyday life and future careers. The complex challenges that students have to face at school with help them in their at home/daily challenges.The things they learn at school will be influential in their life as well.

I am expounding on going from physical to digital.Computers have a very good memory,Therefore they can teach us correctly. In the opposite our teachers seem to forget at some points and are not able to answer all questions that we ask. Computer again can replace the presence of teacher and give us more values in studying. Also computers always were updated to new things.

I chose from reaction to interaction. I believe that when learning, interactive is the most effective. When students do hands-on activities, it allows us to comprehend the concepts better. Interactive games such as Kahoot and Quizizz, help to introduce new concepts in a fun and creative way. Now that education is being broadened by technology, it is only suitable for learning concepts to be taught using technology. In conclusion, interactive activities can benefit our learning process for the better.

I chose from physical to digital, ,by having digital assignments, we don't have as much clutter from paperwork. As well as not killing as many trees for paper. I'd also like to announce that devices can store hundreds of documents, while a portfolio can only hold so much! Plus, Digital learning allows students to learn more easily, why draw a line when you can drag a picture? My final addition to this is that it is easier to google something rather than go to a gigantic storage facility.

The topic that I shall be expounding upon is 'From Reaction to Interaction'. This topic has a firm standing in teachings through games or those similar. Not only does this form of teaching provide a way for kids who are usually uninterested with the regular form of learning a chance to be taught in a way so that they retain information while staying interested, it can also provide ways to educate children to social situations that could take place over the internet.

I chose the topic "From Schools to Communities" beacause I agree with the statement. When kids go to school they learn certain things from each other. They also learn about the outside world, and some things that their parents haven't told them about that they would have never known. It is easier for young minds to think alike,but the outside world is what helps you learn what you will need to know in your everyday life. So yes, it is very important for kids to go to school and learn,but to also learn from the world around them.

I chose 'From Physical to Digital', because everyday we keep improving technology to make life more efficient. Pretty soon, instead of paper and pencil, we'll have screen and keyboard.

Also, technology offers a wide range of knowledge that can help make a teachers job easier. I feel that going digital will improve our society for the better.

I chose compliance to play. I feel that I, my peers, and most students learn better if they kind of teach them selves. If students ignore the 21st century technology to help them with their education, they will rely on boring, lecturing teachers and they won't retain the information they should be retaining. So if they use technology sometimes to teach them selves, they would learn and understand better if they were to communicate with themselves and to their peers.

I chose to expound on from isolation to connectivism. I think that learning through social media and other sites can be effective. Its something commonly used in a student's everyday life, which will make it easier to get students to use it. Tags can be used as a way to categorize subjects and standards, this way it won't be hard to find information. It gets students to be able to be isolated yet educated at the same time and also creates a new way to learn.

I'm sure it makes others excited as well. Most kids bring things they learn in school and into their community. Jala, i agree 100% with what you said.

I chose idea #6, From Isolation to Connectivism because I agree. Many people focus on the worser side of the Internet and social media, but we must allow ourselves to see how it betters education. With being able to post instantly, saving worksheets and files on a digital file so it's almost impossible for them to be lost makes students more organized with their work. If homework and class work can be accessed from anywhere on their smart phone, laptop, or tablet, it makes it more available to do their work, keep up with it, and be able to access it at anytime.

I chose from reaction to interaction. Interactive games/videos can keep a child more interested in the lesson then they were before.

I also think if they had to do a response to the lesson, the interactivity would help them understand more on the situation/lesson.

I am expounding on "From Reaction To Interaction". Games are a way to keep a child engaged no matter what the game's about. Without it a child may drift farther and farther away from getting an education because their attention wasn't grabbed at an early age. This is extremely important for younger kids due to their shorter attention span. It's almost as if learning were disguised as something fun which is a good way to encourage children to learn.

I choose Physical to Digital. My first reason I choose physical to digital is because having paper work makes students bored. Paper work also be damaged rather than work on the internet. My third reason would be that having work on the internet brings out the fun, for example playing a game then telling what you think about it. For most students paperwork is not the best. It also makes students lazy with their work. It can make them lazy because no one likes a sore hand after writing so many sentences! That gives students the feeling to not doing their work quickly.

The topic I wanted to expound on was the," From Reaction To Interaction ". This topic talks about how game-based learning combines some other elements like social gaming, emotional emersion, and digital literacy to produce a net effect of self actuation, transparency, and participation. Summarized this basically means that some games can help people become more social. Gaming, when used properly, can help a person immerse I whatever game they are playing. Game-based learning may help make learning more fun when children are bored in class. Games everyone can play together for completion such as Kahoot, Quizlets, etc.

Students can experience defeat and the feeling of winning against another peer, I think its a good experience because nobody can win easily and you have to know the subject your learning on to win.I also think that its convinient because since it's online and at your fingertips you can access it anywhere at any time so that's a bonus!
