Welcome to the Big Time! EDU 6386

We just left our first F2F of the semester and I am not going to lie, I feel a little overwhelmed, BUT excited at the same time. I feel like many of the things we are going to learn in this class are things that have been on my to do list for my personal classroom for a long time now. I am so glad that now I will have a good reason to learn how to use them and use them! (that would be the whole part about the fact I am getting graded for this:)) I have used Photostory, but have not used Movie Maker yet and I am really looking forward to this project. My students are going to love being apart of this with me. I am hoping to do something with the fairy tale that each one of them just wrote. I have used Podcasting, but would like to be more proficient with it because I know it can be a very powerful tool to use during reading and even publishing. Another thing I am exciting about learning more about is websites. I have had one since I began teaching, but have never been really good at updating and using it as a tool for parents or students. I want to become more comfortable with it so it will benefit my students. Overall I am excited about this semester and what we are going to learn!!

  1. Overwhelming could have been one of our KEY words for the day! Hopefully the anticipation of learning new things and the understanding that we are all free to make mistakes in this class will help lesson that OMG feeling. Looking forward to helping you accomplish these goals!
