What do I now know about integrating technology?
I have learned a lot about integrating technology... and just technology in general from this class. I not only learned what geospacial tools, non-linear PowerPoints, spreadsheets, and databases are, but how to make and use them. When I started this class I didn't think that I would use technology in my own classroom, but my thoughts have changed. I have come up with lesson plans that I would have probably never thought of before. I know that an art classroom will probably never have a SMARTboard, but a nonlinear PowerPoint would make a great portfolio of a students artwork that is many times necessary to get accepted into a college art program. I think that it is very important for students to have as much exposure to these types of projects and programs as possible to prepare them for their future that will definitely be filled with technology. I wish that I would have had the chance to use Inspiration or Kidspiration when I was in school to organize my reports and essays. I also feel more comfortable using the computer and I never imagined that I would have a blog or be able to make a website. All in all, I feel like I have learned a lot and have developed a better understanding and appreciation for integrating technology into the classroom.
