Made it to the Finish Line
Although the semester has finally come to an end, the work has only begun. With everything I've learned about the use of technology in the classroom and all the tools, strategies, and interactive games I've discovered, I'm excited to begin implementing them into my classroom. I've enjoyed doing all the assignments- from creating a Personal Technology Blog for the first time and writing reviews of technology tools I've discovered, creating a CMS online course using Engrade, writing many effective literacy website write ups, creating a Geo-Narrative using Google Earth, and reflecting on my progress throughout the course. Although I can admit the course was a bit overwhelming at times, I feel I have done my best to manage my time well and was able to complete assignments on time.
I read something that
struck me as I was exploring the Scholastic website and I found it to be very
inspiring, it is – ‘...from book
publishing and distribution to media, from educational technology to classroom
magazines, literacy remains the cornerstone of all that we do. Because now more
than ever, literacy – the ability to read, write and understand- is a
necessity, not only to succeed but to survive.’
I look forward to taking everything I've learned and sharing them with my students, parents, and colleagues. See you all in the Moodle world next semester!

It was great working with you!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you - the ablity to read, write, and understand - is a necessity, not only to succeed but to survive. Even with so much technology, you can't succeed unless you can read, write, and understand. Enjoy the rest of the school year.
