last class!

Today was the last day of ed tech! its been fun, but now I have about four more finals to study for! See you soon, blog!

The final

The final today was on the harder side, but still pretty fair. It had a little bit of each section that we went over, which I liked. There were some, however. that I did not remember the answers to, such as what Creative Commons were and what NETS*S stands for. However, I still think I did pretty well on the exam and I do think that this class was very useful and I will definitely use the information that I learned to contribute to my teaching in my future classroom.

Collaborative Tools Assignment

I also really enjoyed this project because it was very useful for our future classrooms. It was the first time where I made a lesson plan, and I had a lot of fun doing so. I also liked that we got to pick our own groups--it made the project more enjoyable.

My favorite assignment

My favorite assignment that we have had to do this semester was the photo assignment. I had a lot of fun readjusting two of my pictures to make the project look neat and presentable. I also liked that we could use any topic for our pictures, so using old pictures was fun!

almost over?

The next class that we have is going to be the final exam. This class has been very helpful for me. It has taught me that there are many different ways for me to integrate technology into my future classroom. Although I do have to admit that two hour class isnt my favorite, I can honestly say that I learned a lot from this class and I'm glad that I took it this semester.

Todays class

In class today, we reviewed all of the material that is going to be on our final exam. It's definitely going to be a very difficult exam, but I think that if I study hard, I'll do well. I just have to memorize the different names of the different parts of a website and how to use microsoft excel, and then I should be good.

Interactive Whiteboards

Interactive Whiteboads are a very innovative way to incorporate education with technology. Teachers can easily use the whiteboard, while having the ability to write on it and draw pictures to help make the lesson easy to undersand. It is also an easy way to write notes next to pictures so that the teacher can show the students certain aspects of the lesson. I think white boards are a really good education tool and I think that interactive whiteboards will only get more advanced and innovative in the future.
