Summary of My Year in ICT

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 :(

The links to my websites are:

(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.
