In this class, I have learned quite a few things. First of all, Ive learned that there are many different web tools available to help teachers make worksheets, quizzes online, rubrics, and different puzzles to help students learn. I have also learned that there is a program to help make concept maps. This program is very easy to use and makes concept mapping a whole lot more enjoyable to work with. Ive also learned that there are a lot of assistive technology out there to help students with disabilities and proves that the students can learn also.
My strongest points would definitely have to be writing my own papers. When I did the turnitin project, I found that the paper I wrote was 100% original and that made me very proud. I think I am very strong in this point because I have always hated the idea of using other people's work and calling it my own. Therefore, I have always striven to do my own work. My weakest point would have to be probably updating and using a blog and website daily. I feel this is my weakest point because using daily things that updates is not something I like to use.This is something i would have to work on as a teacher if i want to continue using technology in my classrooms. To help fix my weak points, I will try to use my facebook account more often to try to get into the habit of updating and keeping connected daily.
I plan on integrating technology into the classrooms by using more computers and softwares to present information to the students. I would introduce using technology to the students and have them work on the computer for some parts of the day. I would also use technology myself to create things that are appealing to the eye but also have a purpose for learning. I want to be able to incorporate it into the class in every way possible.
The facebook idea is actually a really good idea, I never thought of using it to practice updating daily. Even though I do use facebook almost daily. I liked and did well on the TurnItIn assignment too, but 100% original that's fantastic!
