Computer Lab

     Today's computer lab lesson was about the computer application "Food Force." In this game, the player tries to help people in another country that don't have enough food. It also tells the viewer to help them establish a home for them. Even though this application is fun, it teaches kids about other places around the world and how people are not always having a full stomach everyday. This is a real company that goes and helps these people which makes the game a lot more authentic since people actually did whats on the screens.

Computer Lab

     In today's computer lab lesson, Mr. Jost introduced Room 14 to the Bitesize Math website for junior highers. On this website, it gives little mini lessons and activities on the math subject of the viewers choice.  From fractions to multiplication and angles to geometry, Bitesize Math is like a little version of Khan Academy. The lessons also come along with tests that quiz the user on the information in the lesson. Maybe someday, websites like Bitesize Math might give teachers a break on their lessons. Who knows?

Computer Lab

       In computer lab today, Mr. Jost showed us a few sites that we can use in the future to help teach ourselves. Khan Academy, a website that goes above and beyond to teach it's viewers of all the subjects that they need to know, is a place where Salmon Khan teaches me personally how to do math and anything that I just find interesting! Wonderopolis is a website that can be used just to quench your thirst of curiosity. It is full of interesting facts with videos to show the viewer what they are talking about. This website is basically just a place where they ask random questions then turn right around and answer them for you. Who says that learning with computers can't be interesting?
