Looking around UEN I have noticed that there are also places for teachers to bounce ideas off of each other and to get quick teaching tips.
I am also hoping that they have an area for how to incorporate technology into the classroom!

UEN and Me
UEN to me is the fastest way to access state core and standards. Instead of taking my core handbook back and forth from school to home, I can hop on UEN at home and have easy access. I am very computer oriented, so it is easier for me to create a lesson plan on a computer rather than to write it out, I can type faster than I can write. Having lesson templates and lesson ideas would make it all the easier for me. One thing, I would always want to make sure that I am tweaking the lesson plans to fit my classroom, instead of copying and pasting.

I really love too how much faster this will make creating lesson plans. It is true for me too that I can type so much faster than I can write. I didn't even see yet in my exploration that you can bounce ideas off of other teachers. I am really excited to go and look at that.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a great idea to access the core online. That is so much less hassle than lugging around a huge binder! It is so important to tweak the lessons to your class. I think it's important to individualize for each subject.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you when you say you like that the Utah Core is on this website. It is nice how there are so many different materials that you can find in one place. I think that teachers can learn a lot from each other - and I agree that it is important to change the lesson plans to fit your individual students. Every class is different and has different needs.
ReplyDeleteUEN does seems to be a very nice resource for Utah teachers. Neither Indiana or Ohio have anything like this (or at least didn't when I was there). So the sample lessons are you favorite part of UEN?
