My little learners have been enjoying Zoodles for the last two weeks. You are so right; it is a wonderful learning system! I like that it was created for students of any age group and that I can easily find out how each child is doing in a particular subject. My kids are so used to navigating with parental controls, which always end up going to blocked screens, that navigating in Zoodles made there online experience stress free. It was such a joy to know that anything they wanted to click on was safe. The videos and interactive media were an added bonus. My kids had no idea learning was taking place; they were just having fun.
On a side note, I’ve really enjoyed reading all of your blogs. On your Flickr blog I could see many great uses for that lesson in my learning environment. Getting students to think about what others may have been feeling or thinking is a wonderful way to make children learn more about themselves and how they view the world. Even a school psychologist could benefit from your approach, as a tool to assess possible transference, and even identify sensitive areas in a child’s life where a teacher could lend support.
