Final Blog Post

1. I learned a lot in this class. At times, it was a little overwhelming, but I think I benefited from taking this class. I believe that I will be a much better teacher to my future students because of this class. I will be able to be diverse in my classroom as well. Before this class I would not have been able to use Google Earth or anything in Google besides emailing. When I become a teacher I will be able to use Google, Google Earth, Google Presentation, Twitter, how to make a Podcast, how to create a Blog, and using blogs as a learning tool.

2.I think I learned everything that I needed to in this class to help me be Technology Literate as a Teacher.

3.I think that everything that I learned in this class was important and hopefully will be able to use them in my classroom, when I become a teacher.

4.What excited me most was the Comments 4 Kids. I always looked forward to what they were doing to their blogs and in their classrooms. They are doing way more advanced things in their classes than I ever did. I think it's awesome how their teachers challenge them.

5.The Google Earth Project intellectually challenging. I know it probably shouldn't be, but to me it was. It was very difficult in figuring out how to get it to work on my blog, but after doing it over and over I got the link to work. I was very proud because I didn't give up. I think its important for everyone not to ever give up.

6.I don't think there was a time in this class that I got bored because we were always learning something new every week.

7.I think Dr. Strange need to keep the class the way it is. It was challenging but anyone that tries can accomplish the projects that are assigned in this class.

8.I think I am much more technological literate because of this class. I don't think I'm great at it but I think I'm at least average when it comes to technology.

9.I think the way to maintain or improve my technological skills is to keep working at it all the time. I think it will be important for me to try and find new technology in order to improve my technological skills. I think by using my PLN that will help me as well.

  1. I like comments4kids also.

    Google Earth has great potential but still has a few kinks in it. I understand that it will soon be fully integrated into Chrome and Firefox. When that happens it will be even more useful.

    Good luck!
