Technology in the Classroom

This class is by far the most useful class I have taken throughout my college career. I was interested in incorporating technology into my classroom, but I had no idea where to start. My favorite assignment for the class was creating a screencast. I believe this use of technology will be extremely helpful to my students. Students will be able to see my screencast on my classroom blog and also be asked to create their own screencasts for classroom projects. All the teachers I have observed or student taught under had classroom blogs. I love the idea of having a classroom blog because it can be used as a tool for students and parents to communicate better with the teacher. I had a difficult time learning about podcasting but now that I have been introduced to the new technology, I am confident to incorporate it into my classroom. I believe the students will enjoy working together to create their own podcast.  I am excited to bring the newest technology into my classroom lessons.
