Reflection

Reflection During this class I did learn some new and valuable things that I will continue to use when I enter the classroom to teach. It has been a long and winding to process to get where I am. This is the last class I need to graduate and had to stay this extra semester to take it, postponing my student teaching. However, I feel everything happens for a reason. The first time I took this class I learned nothing. The instructor never really explained and I got lost and behind. I never really took anything from the experience. Now that I have had a chance to take the same course with an different instructor and objectives I feel I now know and can use the technologies I was taught. I see myself using WIKIs to work with other teachers in my school and to get ideas and feedback. The idea of using blogs for help is a great idea as well. The use of Power Point has always been something I value. Now that I know how to embed music and audio I think that will be a great tool. Pod cast were fun and different to use but I don’t think I will ever use those. However, now I know that they are an option. I enjoyed my EDU290 the second time around and am glad that I have all of these new technologies I can use within my classroom.
