I wasn't sure what to expect when I signed up for this course. I felt pretty comfortable with the level of technology integration in my classroom and didn't know if this course would even be a good fit for me. As I started reading the material for the first module, I found myself thinking several times "Hey, that's interesting" and it has just snowballed from there.
I have found this course to be informative and a great asset to what I already do in my classroom. I have really enjoyed the interactions with the other members and have found their comments, links and ideas to be helpful. I have found tools that I will most definitely be using in my class next year and many ideas on how to get my students more involved in their own learning.
I am excited for the coming school year and I hope to integrate many new concepts to the class. We will have a class Symbaloo that the students will add to throughout the year. I will also make sure they have a monthly lab of adding to/updating our class website. We will also start our own private YouTube channel and they will be posting videos online, not just for the one project we have been doing for years but for multiple projects during the year.
I look forward to the changes and can't wait to get them started. I'm sure there will be some growing pains, but we can get the kinks worked out and have a successful year.
