Final Thoughts

I really enjoyed this class and learned a lot of new techniques and electronic mediums that I can use in and out of the classroom. I feel the best part of the class were those frustrating moments when you were trying to figure out how to do something new, and the satisfaction in brought when you completed the assignment as so. I enjoyed the interaction the blog created with my classmates, and made the experience more intimate and real. I now have an electronic record of my work in this class, which can be shared from anywhere at anytime. I see now the real ways that technology can be used in the classroom, and not just for technology's sake.

After reviewing the results on Survey Monkey about my project I feel I could of better explained how the students were to use technology for the project. I figured that most students were used to using YouTube, and that much discussion on how to access and use it would not be neccessary. I also feel I could of allowed more use of technology in my project, but for the project's sake and the content standards given, I felt it was appropriate and sufficient. Classmates seem to enjoy reading my project and even one student commented on the effectivness of my rubric.

Thanks so much Colin, I am signing off.
