Journal 9

 

     My experience in EME2040 has been great I learned so much about technology and how it’s used by teachers to better their classrooms.  I was in a flex section of Educational Technology which was nice on days that I was unable to make it to class.  However, I learned the most and got the most out of the class when I was able to attend in person.  I enjoyed the things we learned in the class but I had a hard time keeping up with the pace of the class.  When I am a teacher I will be sure to make sure students can keep up with the pace of the course I teach.  

     Open education resources are extremely helpful in learning new materials as a teacher.  These resources are available for any person allowed on the platform to post helpful information about a topic or idea.  https://www.oercommons.org/. This website was helpful for me in finding OER’s based on specific topics and grade levels.  As a whole OER’s can be extremely helpful if you can find the correct one.  

      I learned many new things from working on the PowerPoint for Information Dissemination.  This assignment allowed me learn about how information is shared and good ways to both learn new information and through what mediums I can do this.  As a whole this assignment was very informative and opened my eyes to new ways to use and find Information about topics.  I will use the things I learned in this assignment in the future.
