Coach Reeds Playbook

Just this past week at our school district there was a 4 day work week due to parent teacher conferences. Now before I continue let me say I really do enjoy having that Monday off. It reminds me of being in college were we as a campus always had Mondays off. It brought back a lot of good and fun memories! But back to the present, for some reason 4 day work weeks seem to drag a little bit longer.... Is it just me or are there others out there that agree? It seems as if the hours in the day slow down a little bit, the hands on the clock aren't moving as fast as they normally do... Whichever goofy idea it might seem like.. it's not the case. It's just for some reason goes soooooo sloooowwwwww. Almost like watching a sloth at a cashiers desk at the DMV (did you get that reference?) Well the new work week is upon us and it's already the end of February.. Where is time going? Before you know it we will be in our third class in this Adult Studies program. Crazy right?! Wel...

Technology in education. As Thanos said "Dread it. Run from it. Destiny still arrives." That is technology in education and it is coming, better yet it's already here! Now don't get me wrong, technology is used for so many positive things. On our computers, ipads, cell phones, alexa's, google homes, the list goes on and on. I'll be the first to say I use my cell phone for just about anything from finding out the weather for next week or where the nearest taco or empanadas place (can't go wrong either way!). Technology is changing education in a way that makes accessing grades, homework, or projects easier than ever. There used to be a time, depending on where you lived during the winter months when you would get a few snow days from school. This was both good and bad. Yes, you would get the day off but you would have to make the day up you missed at the end of the school year. That has changed though because of technology in education which I think is awes...
