Wow, it has sure been a while since I last left a blog post! It is exciting to know that ALL coursework will be done in a matter of weeks and off we all go on our final practicum! If this course is as engaging as last years, and I'm sure it will be, I know I will be gaining a lot of background knowledge in the world of technology. If you forgot, I don't spend too much time on the internet, so pretty much everything in this class will probably keep me on my toes and very interested. As an educator I want to instill knowledge in this area so I am able to keep up with students and also teach students who might not exposed to technology, technology tools can be fun and interactive in the classroom! We all know it is here to stay and will keep growing, this course will better prepare me before going out into the field of teaching and I'm looking forward to the next few weeks!
“To understand their world we must be willing to immerse ourselves in that world. We must embrace the new digital reality. If we can’t relate, if we don’t get it, we won’t be able to make schools relevant to the current and future needs of the digital generation.” – Ian Jukes
good closing quote - hope the course lives up to your expectations :-)
