Electronic Porftolio

Before taking this class, I thought I had a relatively good idea of educational technology, but I was wrong. There is a lot more to technology and education than I thought there was. I thought educational technology was basically computers, tablets and smartboards. I’ve learned about all the different facets of educational technology such as … More Final Blog

Screencasting Project

Before starting the Screencasting Project, I was nervous about my ability to use the program. Although there were a few hiccups, I found the program and the project itself surprisingly easy.

Twitter Chat

November 4, 2015

For this chat I followed along with the iPads in Education chat under the hashtag #ipadchat. The chat was held on Wednesday at 1pm. I think due to the time of the chat, there were not as many people participating compared to what I have seen in the past. This chat was also different because … More Twitter Chat

When we were going through the different aspects of the software during class I found it was easy to use, … More Smartboard Experience

This twitter chat has a central theme of how to use technology to scaffold reading and writing in the classroom. I chose this chat because I obviously thought it was very appropriate for what we have been learning … More My First Twitter Chat

Week One: Tech in the Classroom

September 6, 2015

Basically every year since I can remember there is always some new component of technology that comes out. Whether it’s a new device or an app, technology continues to grow and grow. It’s almost inevitable that it becomes integrated into schools and classrooms across the world. As a recent college graduate I could see it … More Week One: Tech in the Classroom
