Final Reflection! :'C </3


The American Dream projects that we viewed was the final and strongest impetus for me to incorporate technology into my future classroom.  Hopefully, it will not be long before I have my own class and I can come back and tell you how it went!  Viewing the results from actual high school students was great and really inspires me to do more than I have up to this point in terms of getting out there and accomplishing and learning.  It is very easy to become complacent and to simply assign a paper to your class without getting as deep into discussion as is actually possible.

Also, watching the remainder of the group video projects and receiving feedback for my group's video project was extremely beneficial.  I learned a great deal of good tips on making videos and sharing information.  From the feedback I was able to really see how effective our "across the curriculum" theme can be.  I too have seen teachers attempt to confer and connect their lessons, but leave it off halfway.  I believe the key is to stick with it until the end.  This can be achieved through thorough planning.  Thanks for everything! (especially the pizza)
