Apr. 20,2010 Reflection

Today in class, we shared one thing that we were proud of regarding our blogs. Reflecting back on our individual struggles in creating the blog, we overcame and stepped up to the challenge. this class has increased our confidence as Educators because we are able to do something that most of our collegues are not able to do regarding technology.

In sharing out about our respective case studies, we found that spending one on one time, and working in small group instruction helped us dig deeper into getting to know our students. Delving in to their knowledge base has proved to be a valuable resource when developing lessons that reach their inner spirits.

In closing, I must declare that the Teacher using technology increases efforts to step away from the traditional way of teaching, and incorporate technology in his/her classroom and lesson planning.
