In this course I have learned how to combined content standards with technology standards. I am constantly trying to find ways to keep students engaged in a learning environment. This course was beneficial and focused on indicators of Engaged Learning(EL). I feel that these indicators have been ingrained in my mind and will be at the forefront of my teaching this year. As I begin preparing for the new school year I am excited to adapt what I have learned in this course.
Technology can support student acquisition of content in many ways. It can provide differentiation, individualized learning and cooperative work. When given authentic and meaningful tasks and projects EL and higher order thinking skills will be present. There is a plethora of productivity tools, apps and web based products available to assist students in gaining content standards. Using technology in the classroom and teaching students digital citizenship will help them in the classroom and in life in this digital world. This course has helped me on my journey of becoming a coach. I have benefited from taking advice from my instructor and my peers. I have taken note of how others coach and used their ideas. I have collaborated with others and learned how to be a better facilitator, guide, be a co-learner and co-investigator. I have enjoyed learning new ideas from others and sharing my knowledge as well. This has been a very cooperative learning environment. |
