EDM 310 Class Reflection

What a great class. I had so much fun and learned so much. This class helped provide tools and techniques that i will definitely use as a future teacher. As a high school science or history teacher, i will need to teach with passion, accuracy, and intelligence. All of these characteristics can be acquired and sharpened just by taking this class. After completion of this class, i will be at the top of my game to start off as a new, technologically literate teacher. With to

tools like google, blogging, digital media, and my PLN by my side, teaching will be more like a hobby than a job.

I can honestly say that this class took my expectations and threw them out the window.When i heard that i had to take this class, i just knew that it would be boring and tedious work involving spreed sheets, and word documents. However, as we got into the first couple weeks of class, i knew that would not be the case. After that, i really was excited to come to class. I looked forward to every day with Mr. Sullivan. He took his lecture and went in whatever direction the students wanted to know. We did actually get a lot of work done, but you would have never known it, what with all the fun we were having.

The funny thing is that nothing in the class was actually hard. Mr. Sullivan took his time and gave individual attention when needed. The only thing i didn't like was the somewhat repetitive and increasingly unoriginal blog topics. It seemed like we blogged about why teachers should be be tech literate for a whole month an a half. I would have liked to see more versatility and personalization in the blogs. Other than that the class was great. The most important thing that i learned in class was that i should always keep leaning.
