Reflection #3

When I was in high school we did not use a lot of technology. We did have computer labs but we hardly ever used them unless we were typing papers or doing research. After doing the first 2 reflections I have realized that there is a lot of technology that I didn't even know about. Whiteboards, tablets, and clickers are all good tools when using technology in the classroom. I have also realized that I do not know a whole lot about using technology in the classroom because I have no past experience. I hope we can use some of these different technologies during this class so I will get some experience working with them and will also feel comfortable working with them in my own classroom.


Reflection #4

I feel that our e portfolio's will benefit us greatly in the future. This will give our employers a look at some of our previous work. Creating this e portfolio will show them that I have had technology experience and I can bring that experience to my own classroom. It's also a chance to showcase what I have done in the classroom so far. The e portfolio is also a resource for me, I can go get previous lesson plans that I did in the past and also get the links to websites that I think are very informative. The team blogs are a good way for us to learn about the different technologies out there. It gives us a chance to work in groups and create something that we can use for later use. I feel that both the blogs and the e portfolio's are very beneficial and will help us in the future.
