Apparently education is headed in a new direction and I am just finding this out. Because I chose to further my education, I am being exposed to a whole new world. While this is a little (ha) overwhelming, the more I read, explore, think about, these opportunities, the more excited I become. I am starting this blog for two reasons. One, I am required to for a class I am taking. Would I do this if I didn't have to? Probably not. Am I glad I have to? Yeh, I think I am! The second reason I am doing this is because I really do want to hear from other teachers who are trying to incorporate technology into their curriculum and classrooms. I want to hear about the trials and errors that you have, or are experiencing. Give us some ideas! If something worked for you, share it with us. If it failed, tell us why - perhaps we can help.
We have to start somewhere, so this is as good a place as any. Right now, it does seem very complicated to me. Maybe you feel the same way. Hopefully it will become a tool we can share with our students. I don't want to be left behind, I just know that right now, I am not yet ready to lead!

Hi Jane! We are in the same class. To quote the late Bob Marley: " ...Don't worry about a thing, 'cause every little thing is gonna be alright!" I am having so much fun with this so far. I think blogging is a really good way to "vent," express, share and create. Have you ever felt that there was no one to share your thoughts, or who could understand your point of view? I have. That's why I think blogging is a good tool for personal expression. Good luck on this journey!

OOOHHH!!! How fun to receive my first blog comment! And you are right, I know it is going to get easier (?) or at least I keep telling myself that! This part wasn't too bad, but are you having a hard time finding other blogs to post to? I am not coming up with many that I find interesting or have anything in common with. Most of them seem far beyond my level as far as technology is concerned.
ReplyDeleteWell, I do hope this continues as I think it would be a great place to start and that is exactly where I am...at the starting point!
Thanks again for the post...Jane
