As the school year winds down, I'm starting up this new learning opportunity. I thought the Summer Camp 2.0 class sounded like an applicable, interesting, and fun undertaking this summer.
While I consider myself familiar and somewhat savvy with a variety of technologies, I haven't had the time or opportunity to learn some of these tools that could be applied in my teaching. I hope to learn about a variety of different things that I could use in my class next year to engage students and (hopefully) have them create and interact with as well.
I am quite comfortable, on a surface level, with different technology. I am comfortable with computers and internet programs, can upload photos and save things, and feel I do a decent job of incorporating things into my daily life and classroom teaching. I've loved having the SmartBoard in my class as an interactive tool. I'm hoping that by learning some additional programs, coupled with the SmartBoard interactivity, my classroom and students will be further engaged.
