The process of building my website has been slow, frustrating, and rewarding. Technology hiccups have made the process slow and frustrating, but at the same time....I feel so proud when I complete something. It has also helped increase my confidence in my tech capabilities. I don't claim to be a pro, but I'm definitely in a better place then when I started this program.
There are many things from this program that I hope to carry out into my classroom and some things that I've already implemented. I've started using a blogging program (kidsblog) with my students and hope to incorporate it to a higher level next year. I've also used some of the programs with my ELA centers. I'd also like to look into including technology in our site plan/goals.
This program has re-energized my teaching. It also opened my eyes to the fear of trying new things technology that I didn't realize I had, not necessarily a fear of trying, but a fear of failing. I would definitely like to see my chromebooks and some sort of technology being used throughout subjects and the day.
