First Night Class Reflection

On our first night of class, I really enjoyed learning the things we went over. I was interested to hear several people share how their grade school experiences were not so great. It is amazing, in a good way, that those individuals; who had a rough time are still willing to teach and continue learning. That is definitely a show of perseverance. It was also interesting to see the percentages associated with each answer on the questions. I can definitely see myself using the poll site for all kinds of things. How easy would it be to take polls for example, if you wanted to know what kind of class party everyone prefers. It is also a good way to keep everyone's opinions private and not singling out a particular student with hand raising. As sometimes students will raise their hand too, to fit in with the populous. I still can't believe that tonight I made my first blog and am posting for the first time ever, right now. As an educator and Mom of two younger children; I try to stay informed on current technologies. However, using some of the new technologies doesn't always happen. When I get the opportunity to learn how to use the different technologies I take it. I can't wait to do all the fun things I know we are going to learn and work through all the hard work involved.
