Pioneer Library Reflection

Reflection

I had an interesting experience using the Pioneer Library. I felt it was very hard to navigate through at first, it took me about a half hour before I began to get the hang of things. I think it would be hard for students to navigate through without prior knowledge of the website. However, I think once they know how to navigate around, they would find a lot of benefit from the system. I do like that everything seems to be compiled together. It was nice to just click the link and be taken to the page rather than open a new window/website.
There were several different resources for learning that would benefit students. They could learn about history, cultures, languages etc all in a fun interactive setting. I can see the students using the website for fun interactive games and programs. It also is an easy guide to find knowledge about the subjects they learn in school. It is a good reference for things they may need to do reports on or just future their knowledge about.
As a teacher I would use the website to help me understand the core curriculum for my Kindergarten classroom. I like that it has lesson plans available to use, or the option of writing your own lesson with helpful references to the core curriculum.
