For me, one amazing resource is a channel on the YouTube platform. YouTube #Education has videos of different educational fields such as social studies, science, grammar, mathematics, etc. This channel contains videos of Stanford University, PBS, TED, Khan Academy, among others. I have enjoyed discovering academic resources in this channel and I have used it on my placements. I shared it with my CTs and they have found it this channel useful. #Education permits exclusive access to educational content to avoid mistakes in the classroom.
AIso, I have used GoNoodle for early and middle years, this wonderful website of music videos is a proper motivation in the classroom to dance and do physical activities.

Infographic is a visual helper that interrelate images and texts to communicate easily to understand Information with instantaneous interpretation using an infographic poster in the gymnasium of a healthy lifestyle. I think the infographic is a visual facilitator to understand and memorize information, we can develop specific information on any topic focused using photos and text information
In physical education, I am planning infographic information of nutrition plan, fitness plan, healthy exercise, heart rate activities, and healthy lifestyles activities I believe this is a good way for promoting the benefits of physical activities so the student can start to understand the impotence of practice physical activities I considered import too use QR to the students acquire the infographic and develop online connection.
Infographic can promote a nutrition plan including, definitions, one QR of Basal Metabolic Rate to recognize the amount calories that everyone can need daily and food benefits.

The last Skype conference of
this course was presented by Dean Shareski, who believe stimulate curiosity in
the teachers will improve teaching and learning. He said, “If you are not
curious you might have a difficult time teaching”. I agree with this concept
because being curious wakes up our thoughts to feel and live the teaching and
learning experience. I am a curious person and during the conference, I
observed the T-shirt that Dean wore advertising Discovery Education Canada, so
after, I went online to investigate it. I discovered a website, useful for
teachers and students, where digital resources and activities can be found.
As teachers, we have to learn how to be curious. I think curious
teachers can make curious students and curiosity is a natural ability and
characteristic of humans that we forgot while we grow, but we can re-learn it.
To start, we can try new food, speak with an stranger, ask ourselves questions
about what is around us using the 6 Ws (What, Why, When, Where, Who and How), seek
and read a book about something that you found interesting, look at the small
things of every day and discover something beautiful on them, learn things
(when you have knowledge, you can have new ideas), take risks and do not fear
failure, because as Dean said, curiosity makes learning very joyful.
Edublogger was a new experience that I enjoyed. I have the fortune of finding and analyzing many blogs and videos of technology that I found in the education blog of Notosh, following its Twitter, Facebook and YouTube videos. I discovered the position that today educators assume a different stance towards technology in this blog.
The edublogger of Ewan McIntosh that I chose, contain his professional trajectory and current work. I like how he organized and develop his Edublogg. McIntosh shared his professional skills and educational experiences. This website shares his blogs of information using YouTube, Twitter, and Linked to explain his techniques and investigation to apply in the education the technology.
Ewan McIntosh is the founder of Notosh Limited, the company is the advisor of hundreds schools and technologies in the UK. I am sharing his education blog because I learned that the future of education goes hand in hand with technology. Currently, McIntosh and 21 Century LearningInternational are developing conferences in education technology around the world.
Here I post an example of McIntosh’s work and information:

How do you nudge teachers into online coaching? 2016 in Travel
Once again, I've analysed my year of travel to see if I'm any closer to reducing it year on year. It's an annual habit, and if often kicks off new ideas that might affect my team's next year of work. The good answer is: yes, there is less travel! And not just that, but having reduced the schlepping I do, I've been able to hire more amazing people to lead on our work, and celebrate one of NoTosh's best years ever in terms of the quality, quantity and breadth of work we're doing.
