Loved my technology class!!

I have really enjoyed the Technology for Educators class. Prior to enrolling, I'm ashamed to say that I had never even heard of a screencast or a webquest!! I knew that my phone had a podcast app, but never dreamed of using it in my classroom!!! Looking over the assignments the first week, I felt overwhelmed and was stressed about having to complete tasks that I knew nothing about!! However, once I started each assignment, I realized how simple and useful these new tools could be used in my classroom. Now that I have my own class blog, I plan on utilizing it to keep my parents and students better informed.  Since I have discovered that there is a large online bank of webquest, I can now allow my students to take on a more active role in their learning process.  Thank you so much Dr. Rubin for giving me these new tools to keep my students interested!!
