Reflection

The tool that I enjoy doing the most was the photostory, it was fun being able create a story using old photos and being able to add your voice and music into it. I had a great idea on how I could get my students to bring photos of their family and friends and have them record themselves talking about how their family is and the things that they enjoy doing together. I could make their video and have them present it to the class. I think this will help them in their public speaking skills and also they will see the cool fun things that they can do using technology.

Doing this course has though me that the chalk board is something from the past, no longer do teachers have to limit themselves on how they might present a lesson to their students. Now instead of standing in the classroom writing on a board you can have them see a video that you made or that you can easily find online.

What has surprise me more about this online course are the new expectations that we now have for our student when it comes to learning and knowing how to use technology in the classroom and at home at such a young age. I feel that this new expectations on our students are very demanding specially on our younger students to be able to comprehend and learn to use the online world, but I also feel that by they doing so they will have a much brighter future then other past generations
