I am so impressed with all that I have learned this semester. Before this course, I really felt confident in my technological knowledge, but now I feel so much more confident! It's amazing!
I think that the most important technology that I learned this semester is a toss up between the class websites and the wiki and the WebQuest that I did for the Final Technology Project. I can really see myself using both of those technologies in my future classroom, and they were also the newest technologies for me to learn. They are also technologies that make me excited, and I hope that my students will be excited to learn and use them too.
I really plan on using a class website in my classroom. I think it is an excellent way to help students keep on top of homework, get in touch with me and others, and leave comments and participate in class discussions. Likewise, I think that having a class wiki (perhaps in connection to the website) would be an amazing way for students to turn in assignments, and share with each other. I can also post things as their teacher to help them in projects or assignments or even supplement lectures. There are really so many possibilities connected to these technologies.
By using these technologies, and teaching these technologies to students, they will learn as they perform projects, and they will be able to teach each other with their technologically made projects, and we all know that you learn the most teaching. Students in my classroom will be active learners--with the help of technology. Go technology!!
