Wow! I cannot believe that this class is coming to an end! I have learned so much. I had no idea what to expect and I am so glad that I had the opportunity to learn so much about technology in the classroom. I am excited to have my very own classroom in the future and use most of the tools that we have talked about. It has been awesome reading other blogs every week and getting to see what other student’s think of different programs. Everyone has been so insightful and helpful. I want to continue to blog after this class is over. I have found that it has become a hobby to me. I find it relaxing. I enjoy reading up on different topics. I have to admit I was intimidated when I first started this class, but after a couple weeks I realized I was not the only one in the class that was not too tech savvy. I thought I knew my way around a computer, but as the weeks went on I was teaching myself a lot. It was good for me to be challenged and pushed outside of my comfort zone. I am glad that I will be able to help my students be current with new technology. This generation is advancing at rapid rates and I want to be able to keep up with them. I never want my students to fear technology the way I have before. It should not be intimidating. It should be a tool that they can always turn to.

  1. I think it’s interesting how many of us from this course enjoyed the blogging and how we discuss that we might have our own personal page. I certainly have enjoyed it like you have. It’s been an amazing journey. Like you said many of the tech tools we have learned thus far will benefit our students. It’s encouraging and exciting to see how expansive it is. No doubt we can create numerous lessons using technology that we soon use it more than we thought we would. It’s been nice meeting you this term. I enjoyed your WebQuest as well. It’s an interesting walk in history.
