I have grown in my knowledge of using new tools for my classroom, and plan to share this information with my colleagues. As I went through the class, I bookmarked many of the important websites, but feel that I need to go back through the information and do this again. I know there were many websites that you can use in your classroom and I was not able to look in detail at all of them. This is a good setup where you learn a lot from the other teachers taking the class and see what they are using and what has worked for them.
Technology and the way we teach is always changing so we need to be taking classes like this to help us keep up with the changing times and technology. I’m so happy this is a free class. We as teachers don’t make the money that some other professions do, so when I saw this was free, I told myself this was a class that I was taking. The best part is that it turned out to be very worthwhile. I feel that if anyone has been out of school for a while, this is a very good class for them to take to learn new ideas and get informed about our changing technology.
I will be attempting to flip my classroom this next year. I know it will be a lot of work, but I also see the benefit of having more time to work with my students. I also want to teach them how to make a symbaloo. Since I teach sixth graders, I can see how this could benefit them for the rest of their school career.
