You can use it to upload your experience as a teacher, information parents and students would like to know, and contact information. This project of making a website will be the most useful in the classroom (in my opinion). I believe the overall process was a success! ![]() I had a couple of mistakes adding pages, but after I learned from my mistake I could help other people add a page. I thought it went pretty well when I go the hang of editing, adding a page, font, insert a image, etc. Once I started to use it more I became very fluent in making a website. At first we created it, and then did not revisit it much until we go into our tech projects. I think the website was a work in progress. It will be more than helpful in my future career. When I first started to create my classroom site I was not too thrilled, but now I am happy to know how to create and edit a website. I have never created a website and the idea of it was daunting. I believe having regular posts is important to a blog, but again this was my first blog, and I was not too familiar with the process, but now I know how to have a successful blog! If I could do anything differently I would have posted weekly so I would not have to post so many during one week. Blogs are great for updating information, and I think teachers should definitely have one if they are willing to post a regular basis. Teachers can upload what they are doing on a weekly basis, and a blog could also keep students on track with the work they have to do for the class. I'm not sure that I will have personal blog, but the process of the blog went well and it was easy to set up and post new entries.Ī blog could be use in the classroom to keep parents updated on what is going on in the classroom. ![]() I would consider that was what went well! I thought doing a blog would be annoying, but I have actually enjoyed it now that it is over. This class has generated a lot of firsts for in the tech world, but I could not be more thankful for the information! I think the blog went alright because I kind of forgot to post on a weekly basis due to all the other projects we had to do, but It is nice to get thoughts and experiences down. Overall I learned a lot and was happy with all my final projects!Īs you can see from my first entry on Tech Savy Tips, this is my first blog. I enjoyed doing the projects, but I just wish we could have done more with a fewer projects that we will for sure use in the classroom. If I could do anything differently I would have no procrastinated on some things and kept a steady pace throughout, but I feel we all say that and it is our nature to take on what we can at that moment. TPTE 486 has provided me with information and ideas I will take me on my journey to be a teacher. Like I said above iMovie would make a great project for older elementary students. ![]() I will definitely use the Google site knowledge, Dropbox, Delicious, Smilebox, and the iMovie. However, I am not sure that I will use everything because technology can be a distraction. Most everything we learned we could use in the classroom. Anything from wikis, various web 2.0 tools, iMovie, and the webistes. This class has taught me many things I can use in the classroom. iMovie was one of mya favorites, and I think with older kids it would be a fun projects! I wish I had more time with some of the projects, but overall it was a great class. ![]() What went well was the iMovie, Smilebox Wiki, and possibly the Google site. I think what went wrong was there was a major problem of focus because we could not spend much time on one thing, along with only meeting twice a week. I think this class went well, but I also feel it was an overload of things to do. TPTE 486, what can I say? It was a loooong adventure full of technology projects, bumps in the road, frustration with new tools, but there was also new knowledge of helpful things to use inside and outside the classroom.
