UEN Reflection

The UEN website is a great tool to use in the classroom because it provides probably the best resource information available for students, their parents, and their teachers. Students can use the virtual tours, take fieldtrips, and many other tools that Pioneer Library provides. Pioneer Library provides excellent information and resources for a student's specific grade and the specific grade their teacher teaches as well. It is a great tool that provides an easier and faster search rather than using a Google search. It provides many different lesson plans that teachers can plan for their students and also their specific grades they teach. It also provides the main Core Curriculum for the state of Utah to know what the students need to be learning for their year. As I mentioned before, besides the lesson plans and the core curriculum, it provides virtual tours and many other interactives that enhances the students' learning. One great tool that I enjoyed learning about was the Culture Grams. It takes you to where you are a child from a different country. It tells what a child will do a typical day in that country. I believe this helps students to appreciate where they live and to respect and find interest in a peer from a different country. Another tool that I thought was great was Searchasaurus. It provides fun facts of the day, pictures, and other activities that will make a student's learning more interesting. Students and their parents can use these great tools at home to enhance their children's learning. Students also can use these tools in school with help from their teacher to also enhance their learning from these great tools. I think that UEN is fairly easy to use and to access. It provides any teacher, student, and their parents to access any tools to help learning and to make it worth having. I have enjoyed using the UEN website.
