CO-PBST+7

I have to say that the time I spent in this class has been enlightening and exciting. I not only learned how to find and use many wonderful tools for my career, I also realized the important role that technology is going to play in education. I am not just talking about the ease that teacher's will be able to utilize but the new frontier for students. The applications for teaching a wide array of different learning styles will soon be commonplace and I feel that is something teachers have always lacked. It is simply not possible for one teacher and a couple paras to cover the demands of most classrooms in this capacity. I have been transformed from a student teacher that balked at the use of technology to one that will integrate it into every facet of teaching possible. I think this class was well worth the time and effort I put into it and I commend my teacher, Dr. Yeh. In this class, I developed my own Wiki page which contains all the assignments I worked on. My WebQuest is a journalistic approach that addresses the first grade reading and writing standards set forth by the CDE. The lesson is available on Google Sites and I am excited that not only I can use it when I get into the classroom but that any other teacher can use it as well. Another great aspect to this platform is that the lesson is open to communication from these teachers and can be improved upon.
