Course Reflection

I am not going to lie, when i first signed up for this class I was not excited. I am not really a tech savy person and just knew I was going to get behind. But now that is over, I am kind of sad. I feel like I learned so much but there is so much more I could learn. There are so many great websites and devices you can use in your classroom and I feel like I just scratched the surface. I think the part I enjoyed the most was learning how to use the active board. I have seen it be used in both of my practicums so far and they are great. The kids love them and it keeps them so engaged. This class made the active board go from something scary, to something I can't wait to use in my classroom one day.  I also really liked working with the digital storybooks. I think that could be an incredible way to introduce something new to students. I also would love to get more familiar with making them, so that I can teach my students how to do them one day. I think it would be so cool to have the kids make their own. This class really taught me that the computer/ internet is not as scary as I once thought. For the most part, everything is easy to figure out if you just take your time and don't get frustrated. There are so many incredible resources I learned about in this class andI look forward to getting to use them in my class one day. Also, thanks Jeff for being such a great teacher and for all of your help!
