My favorite exercise on this journey was animoto. I really liked making the picture slide show. It was fun and very user friendly. Trust me I need all the help I can get when it comes to web apps. I also liked the happy face generator app. I like things that I can alter to catch my student's attention. It was easy to create and would be easy to place in a PowerPoint presentation. I feel like this program has made me step outside of my comfort zone. I have always tried to avoid technology, but let's face it this is the future of education. I must evolve with it if I want to have a career in education. What I have taken away from this program is that I need to educate myself on technology. I struggled along the way because I do not challenge myself in technology like in need to. The only thing that I see could be done to make this program better is to update some of the tasks because I feel as though some might be out of date.
I now know that there are so many things available to me that will make me a better teacher. This exercise just showed me a few, and I know that there are so many more out there. I feel like I learned things that will make me a much better teacher. I plan to start researching more technology applications that I could use in my classroom. I believe it is necessary for my success to do this at least once a week. I would like to thank you for opening me up to a new world. I would have never known about any of these apps if it wasn't for this project. I might have even became an occasional blogger.
