So with the ending of the fall semester, and the beginning of the spring semester, I inherited 17 new 9th graders in my Contemporary U.S. History class, while my former 9th graders moved to Drama class. I am also attempting to run this class on ECHO, the user interface the New Tech students are using. Although my specific class is not a "New Tech" class, I thought it would be best for myself and my students to at least try it this semester since that is what they are used to, and it will be what I will have to use next year when New Tech moves up to 11th grade. While I was a little bit (Okay okay, quite a bit) confused when I created the class on ECHO, I will have to say that I am beginning to like it. It's fairly simple, no paperwork, and the students knows exactly what to do and can stay updated with the class. Of course, I do still like to get the kids up out of their seats and moving around every once in awhile, so a little fun with the white board still works too.
