My name is Brittany Smith and I am currently in Dr. Strange's EDM310 class. Thank you for posting your video. It is so amazing all of the things that your class does. I plan to become a first grade teacher and cannot wait to see what I can do in my classroom. I am glad that the children enjoy the encouragement and enjoyed looking at the things from "Alabama." I am very glad I watched this video. You have a great classroom and hope one day my classroom will do things like this!

I am impressed with the way your students are engaged with the different types of technology in their classrooms. They seem very interested in learning to use these technologies. They seem to have learned and know how to surf the net, scroll throughout their blogs and wikis. Great Video!!!

I love the way you let your students do the commentary for this video. This is a wonderful example of Future educators.

I am Jordan Sellers, a student in Dr. Strange's EDM 310 class at the University of South Alabama. I think that this is absolutely amazing the things these children are learning. I'll bet that they are able to go home and help their moms and dads figure things out on the computer, and this will be a great asset to them as they get older

Kids I want all of you to keep up the GREAT work and keep working hard in school.

I am a student at the University of South Alabama in Dr. Strange’s class. This is a great way to get young students started on computers so they know how to correctly look for information in the world. They learned items that most young kids can not do or wont and that is to share and motivate each other in ways of ideas. Since i have started comment 4 kids I have read a lot about different student age blogs and learned from all of them what they like or what they want to do for fun.
