As week one wraps up, I have been reminded of how important, fun and easy technology is to incorporate into my classroom. I tend to shy away from it because of the time factor, but am now aware how effective it is when I use it and how much my kids enjoy seeing something new and creative. It seems that graduate school is allowing me to explore more with technology, and I have appreciated this aspect a lot. I believe learning with technology will not only benefit my students, but will also benefit me. The students will be able to experience different types of learning and I will be able to teach to all types of learners. (multi-intelligences)
This week has given me more time to ponder on the usage of technology in my class. I believe it doesn’t end with a PowerPoint or concept map; it goes a lot further. I want to take my knowledge to a new level. I want to bring in new ideas that haven’t been used in our school. I have great ideas, but I once again go back to the time factor. My plan, being I am on a “technology high” is to spend my summer creating and brainstorming different ways of using media in my room. I hope to accomplish at least starting a blog for my students and to get a projector in my room. I foresee these two goals happening and hopefully much more.
