Last class period was a lot of fun to learn more about what Google offers. I already use some of their tools but did not know they had power point, excel, and I had never tried the calendar so I am really excited to try using that. Our assignment for this week is to pick a topic that we would like to do research on for our Digital Story.
I think this assignment will be very beneficial to me as a teacher. First of all I used UEN's website to do research and find the core curriculum. It was good to familiarize myself with the website and I was astounded with all of the resources available! The website will definitely be used in the future.
I think this is a good project because I will be learning about invaluable resources in the process and it will also help me as a future teacher because I will use more technology. I also think this is a great idea to introduce a topic to future student's. It is always good to know how to use more technology because our world uses technology in so many ways, so the more we know the better off we will be.
I think this technology will be a great tool in the classroom because it will make the student's more excited to learn about the topic in the digital story. I think this will also make me have more credentials as a future teacher because I will know how to use different types of technology. Technology can be such a great tool and make things much more interesting.
I always get excited to learn new technology, sometimes it can be hard in the beginning to understand how to do everything but once you get through the hurdles it is so neat the things that can be done. I really hope that I will be able to use technology in my future classroom because I really think that kids get more excited to learn when it is used correctly. I also think taking advantage of the tools available in Google will help me be better organized for my sake and for my student's sake. Even though this assignment somewhat intimidates me I am excited to learn the new programs that will help us create our digital stories!
