First and foremost when I entered college in 1994 I knew nothing about the internet. In 1995 I was introduced to Netscape, and was amazed at all it could do. I never would have imagined what the web could do in 2009/2010. I was nervous and excited to take this course "learning through technology" after looking at the syllabus. Blogging, voicethreads, Twitter ~ sccarryy. Now with the help of our fearless teacher I feel much more confident with these applications.
Our professor has shown us many different tools that we can use as teachers to continue our learning and enhancing our skills by using http://www.k12conferenceonline.com/, and http://www.edtech.com/. There are many tools that we have been shown to utilize in the classroom. I know that I will be incorporating http://www.wordle.com/, http://www.mathplayground.com/, http://www.ixl.com/, http://www.blogger.com/ and http://www.quizlets.com/ into my lesson plans and assisgnments. I will also utilize various websites to enhance collaboration between my students and students in a different country.
As this course continues new doors into Web 2.0 are opening for me. It is exciting as a future teacher for resources and for doing lessons with my future students. The World is Open!!!!
