The biggest impact from this class was learning about how to incorporate a blog in my classroom. Many times I think that because my students are so young they cannot understand many forms of technology. However, after exploring blogs I realize that my students could easily learn how to navigate this technology with some assistance.
Due to this class, I have already started exploring ways to incorporate technology into my lessons. I have been searching for online games and ideas to use in my classroom. I have a projector in my classrooms, so I am hoping to utilize it along with the websites and information I find with my students.
Another aha moment for me was creating a concept map. I could easily incorporate this idea with my students as a way to wrap us a unit of study. I could also see creating it based on a KWL chart and then making changes to it at the end of unit of study.
I do not think I will continue to use the blog that I created in the class. However, I would like to incorporate a blog into my future classroom. So, I will use a blog, but I plan to make it more appropriate for kindergarten or young elementary students.
