Tools Reflection

1. What are your favorite tools you now have in your personal technology toolbox?
I really enjoyed photostory. It was fun taking the pictures and adding them to the site, composing my story and adding music. My computer and I had a disagreement about adding it to my blog. I think students would enjoy this. I also enjoyed wordles. Flickr lets you feel creative, especially as I developed one for my blog title.
2. How have you transfomed your thinking about the learning that will take place in your classroom? I think this technology will enchance learning. Students are around technology all the time and because they are so accepting of it, they will learn from it. I know that I will have to work to keep pace with what they will be doing.
3. Were there any unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you? I was not sure what to expect and at times was a a bit overwhelmed (still am in some cases) but the more I went forwad the better it became. I was amazed by the amount of technology that was available. I am enjoying the learning. I look forward to using this with instruction.
