Software Evaluation Form




Description
 This is a software evaluation form for a really cool program called Phun by Algadoo.  This program is interesting, entertaining, and extremely useful in the education of physics, math, science, and problem solving. If you want to see the program in action check it out here! This software can be used in all classroom ages but in this instance is requested for 4- 6 graders.

Evaluation
 The Software Evaluation Form is a good artifact to be know how to use.  With out a good evaluation form the software has a low chance of making it in to the classroom.  I'm glad to have gotten some practice in this from our computers in the classroom. This supports my educational philosophy in that is encourages the use of hands on explorative material through an approved process.

Transform
 This has opened my eyes to the availability of software.  I hadn't thought much about using it in my classroom because I'm more passionate about other aspects of teaching.  I've realized however that software compliments and expands on the aspects of teaching of which I am passionate. Such as challenging the students, teaching to the individual, and enriching social competence.
