Before coming to this class I had no idea on how to create my own website. I was unaware that there were free programs for you to create your own website. However, I feel that I gained a lot of technical skills in learning how to create my own website. My free website design of choice was Google Sites. I felt that Google Sites was the easiest to learn and to navigate through. Also it was a website that I could download on my home computer and work on my project from home as well. By creating my own website, was Project number One for this class. From then on I have also learned or strengthened my knowledge on other programs as well. I learned how to use Microsoft Publisher, Paint, Microsoft Publisher, Microsoft Photo story 3 and Puzzle Maker. I am very grateful for learning all of these other resources that I can take with me to my future profession.
This course was one of my least stressful courses. This class was very fun and exciting to me and got my mind off of the other work that was expected of me. I feel that I have learned some useful techniques throughout this course and that I will carry with me in the future. All through this course some the projects were either done by using teamwork or individual work. I feel that working in groups is beneficial to me as well as my peers and we can help out in ways that are needed. I have gained a great deal of technological experience in this course and excited to use it in the future. Children are so technology inclined these days and it is important for teachers to be up to date with the latest features and specific programs.
