Blog it up!

Now that we are at the end of the semester, I have taken some time to reflect on what will and what will not work in my classroom when I finally become a teacher. I enjoyed writing blogs each week because it was a way to have us begin our PLN journey and to get other peoples' insights to our profession. I have found countless blogs that I have added to my Evernote so that I can keep up with them. I have bookmarked many specific articles that I want to use in my classroom, and having this opportunity makes me excited rather than scared to begin my teaching career. In the beginning of the semester, we were told that we would have to incorporate technology into our classrooms 1,000 times more than it was incorporated into our's when we were in school. Then, I was stubborn and afraid that I wouldn't be able to keep up with all of the new technology. With this course, through projects, blogging, Twitter, and my PLN, I now know that I have other places to turn to when things start to get rough. I will be able to use technology to find ways to incorporate technology into my classroom! Technology seems to be a win-win for teachers, as it is where I will be looking to enhance my classroom and my students will be excited to use technology to learn.
