Technology in the Classroom

As a result of this class I can only say that I know there is alot of software out there that can be used in the classroom. Personally I do not think I have had much growth in this class. We talked about so many different programs but did not have a chance to really go into depth about them. I guess exposure is good but then we have to try to learn it on our own. I have a tough time learning computer software on my own. I prefer a more hands on environment. It becomes very frustrating trying to navigate through something I know nothing about. Some of the more simple programs like Wikis or google docs are fine, but when it comes to something like smart notebook, it is just too large to be just exposed to. I had hoped to learn much more in depth about smart notebook so I could be proficient at it for student teaching. Since the job market is tough, We as future teachers, need every advantage we could get.Our group worked well together so not too much to talk about here. All are work was done on time and never really worried about it. I don't stress group work at all.
