It's almost over, this semester I'm talking about. I must admit I
am thoroughly looking forward to Winter break. However, as a whole I
did enjoy my first semester here at Stockton. It was a lot of work. Probably
more reading, writing, projects and presentations then I was prepared for but
we are in the home stretch.
This technology class was a struggle from the beginning for me,
but I think I enjoy a challenge. I would recommend this course to just about
everyone. There are so many things I learned about that I never knew existed or
even heard of before walking into INTC 3610 with Professor Ross.
- After taking this class I think my views of technology have changed as well as my opinion of technology in the classroom.
- I think I will be much more open to learning new things in the future and finding ways to implement my new skills as an educator.
Just to recap here’s what we did…

There
is still more to come!

Unbelievable?
That’s how I feel.
ü I highly recommend if you are going into
the teaching profession and you have not used any of these applications
familiarize yourself now.
ü It is better to be confused and unsure
now, before you have a bunch of students staring up at you expecting you to
have all the answers.

Chances
are you won’t have all of the answers, but hopefully you will know where to find them!
