Project 8(Reflection)
Through this course I have learned how important
technology is to our learning. This course has taught me how to
use technology efficiently to benefit myself and my future students.
Through this course I have learned many new things about the use
of technology and it has made me more confident when using technology.
In this day in age technology is used by almost every student in
their daily lives this makes it important to incorporate technology
into the classroom as well. By using technology in the classroom
it gives the children the power to interact and be creative.
The most important part of this
course was making my creating my personal web page. Through
making this website I used many different sources of technology and
learned how to use many different types of programs. This will
make me a more efficient teacher in the future because this knowledge
can help me use more technology in the classroom. I learned how
to use NVU, Microsoft word, Microsoft publisher, google sites and many
more programs. By learning and working with all of these
different programs I feel much more confident with using technology
correctly.
Technology can be very
frustrating at times but through this class it was a comfortable way to
learn to use technology. The most frustrating part of the course
for me was learning how to make links work properly. It was
difficult at first to remember to save before I went to Filezilla and
uploaded my new work onto my website. After many classes I
adapted to the process and I actually became successful at making
links. Help was alway avaible when it was
needed and the help was kind, understanding and patient. I am
glad I had the opportunity to learn technology through this course in
this comfortable atmosphere.
Overall, I feel that this class
has been one of the most important classes in my college career.
The things that I learned about technology and about how to use
it will benefit me as a teacher in the future. I will take my
learning experiences from this class and use them in my daily life and
career for the rest of my life. I am thankful for all this course has
offered me.
