The End of A Semester and the Beginning of a New Dawn

So the Spring 2009 semester is coming to end with students frantically trying to complete all of their last minute assignments and get ready for finals. The class that I am taking, Literacy and Technology offered an insightful way of applying technology to the classroom, with many ways being accessible to all teachers and most of them at a wopping cost of "FREE" and who doesn't like free. This class demonstrated that theory does not have to rule the lecture.. hands on makes a huge difference. Even though I do not profess to be a strong technological person... I missed one class due to a computer malfunction and found myself not knowing what to do or who to turn to and it became rather frustrating, but Dr. S makes you feel at ease with the class and the technology presented. In addition, we had a great time learning together and learning from each other (classmates) whihc really gave the feeling of a collaborative working environment, something that all of us working teachers or future teachers hope to achieve with our own classes. I enjoyed this class very much and know that I will beable to much of the information that I learned and really apply it directly to the classroom.
