It is so hard to believe that this term and this school year has come to an end already. This course has taught me so many technology tools and apps that I can bring into my class room.
With how prominent technology is in today's world I have learned how to use technology appropriately in the classroom. I am currently working on finishing my Pay It Forward Unit for my student teaching placement. This unit I have mentioned in previous posts. I find that as I am creating this unit I am able to bring a lot of the skills I learned from this course. My students will learn how to:
- edit photo's to create a new image
- create online mind maps
- create blogs/use evernote
- give credit where credit is due
- create an iMovie or iMovie Trailer
- use skype and twitter in the classroom
Without this course I would not be able to create this multimedia unit. My students will learn the positive impact multimedia can have. I am so excited to begin this unit with my students, and I intend to keep you posted on how the unit goes.
I am thankful for all the skills I learned this term. I have so much fun editing pictures, making videos, creating my own websites, and blogging. I would love to share what I have not yet like my one sentence video I created through Keynote but due to troubles with my computer I am not able :(

(please note that when I finally have my computer back I will upload a photo of me for my front page so that people know what I look like)
I am creating a letter of permission for my students so that I can upload pictures of my class working and their projects.
I am so excited to continue my journey into the world of ICT. I am also very excited to have the opportunity to take a similar course to ICT, Internet for Educators next year.
