Final Reflection Blog

          This class has been so much fun. It was so interesting learning about the different types of technology that you can use in your class, and different ways of using that technology. Some of the stuff we made in this class, I would have never guessed I would be able to create them. Like the robot, and humming bird. I never would have even thought it was possible for me to create something using that technology. So not only was that awesome being able to do something I told myself I couldn't, but having that opportunity and realization that it is not to complicated and that we need to instil that positive thinking in our students.
          It was also interesting to see how many subjects that using technology can help. I never though of math being something you really incorporate technology with. But when we talked about our robots and making them move 45 degree angle and 90 degree angle it was fun to see that even those subjects that I didn't think of can involve technology.
          I am super excited to use some of these tools in my future class. I am so glad we had the opportunity to write about each of them in our blogs so that later when we do have our own class we can look back on those and reflect, because we will have our own class in about a year and a half. That's lots of time to forget about some of these fun skills and technology that we learned about, so I am very glad we have a place to look back and reflect on. I really do want to use as much of these skills as possible in my class. I feel like for some students struggling it can really help them learn and remember the content of lessons. I also feel like some students do not have very much confidence in the basic Math, Reading, and Science, but maybe they feel confident in making a robot, or creating a video and I feel like we should reach all our students strong points so they can build their confidence in other aspects as well.
          I am looking forward to the rest of the program and ways we can use what we learned in each of those classes as well.
