Thing 23

Wow, I can't believe that I am done! I started out very unsure of many online tools and now I am at least familiar with many new things that I can try in both my professional and personal life. Though I definitely wouldn't call myself an expert in the realm of technology, I at least know what a widget is, how to set up a blog, how to subscribe to a podcast, etc... I know that I won't start the school year off utilizing every single thing that I learned, however I will implement a handful of the ones that I do feel comfortable with. For example, I will have a classroom blog and I will be using my Delicious account to find relevant information for my classroom. I also liked the bubbl.us brainstorming website. There are things like podcasts and bloglines that didn't really appeal to me, but at least I am familiar with them, so I can always incorporate them into my classroom. I really enjoyed this class and I liked being exposed to a whole new technology world!
