The first day of this session opened my eyes to the various ways that educational technology can be used in the classroom, especially through the use of blogs. Learning all about the fellow educators also in this session showed that we all come from different backgrounds and teach different grades and subject areas. The fact that we all are eager to learn about educational technology and implement what we takeaway from this session shows just how versatile using blogs as a learning tool in the classroom can be.
It was stressed in one of the videos on educational technology that we reviewed in this session the importance of not only the use of technology in the classroom but also how important it is to ensure that collaboration takes place as well. I appreciate that we have the opportunity to collaborate with each other on creating a group blog. By doing so, we will get to practice what we learn and experience what our students will encounter when we do decide to incorporate this learning tool in our classrooms. With that being said, I’m truly looking forward to what’s to come in the next two days of this session.
I am looking forward to collaborating with all our classmates! There's so much to learn about navigating educational technology through literacy! We have an awesome teacher, Dr. Matilda N. Rivera!
ReplyDeleteI agree that although we come from different schools, we have similar struggles with having the resources and training to use technology in the classroom effectively.
ReplyDeleteI agree that collaboration is a key part of successfully integrating technology into the classroom. Working with educators from different backgrounds has given me new ideas, and I’m excited to learn more strategies that I can use with my students.
