How Will Taking Ed Tech help me as an educator?

Taking this Tech ed course will definitely help me as an educator. We are learning how to use different programs, such as powerpoint, word, excel, and fireworks. These tools will help us show and demonstrate to our future students how and why these tools are important. For example, it will absolutely help me teach a class using a powerpoint presentation. Since many kids learn by visual aids, I believe that by seeing the powerpoint presentation in front of them will help and develop their understanding of the lesson. I think programs like excel will help kids learn to organize ideas and set up different tables and charts that will help them in later years. Overall, I think that taking this class is definitely going to strengthen me as a future educator and I am looking forward to learning all of the different progrmas that will make my future class more interactive and useful.
